One of the most awesome things about Etsy crafters is the way they leap on human suffering with a hot glue gun and a bag full of bottlecaps. I like to call it, “Tragicrafting.”

We’ve seen Amy Winehouse death crafts, a Liz Taylor pile on, some super fun hurricane swag, and perhaps most tastefully, a Casey Anthony payday! So is it any wonder that Nine-Elevenailia has been steadily creeping into The World’s Most Vibrant Handmade Suckhole?

A cynical person might suggest that this is just another crappy way to make a buck, but by now you know that I am not a cynical person. I’m a God damned Pollyanna, is what I am. And I will tell you right now that Tragicrafting™ is not about money; it’s about healing.

Yes, closure is just a click away. And it only takes Paypal.

So here are my top ten 9-11 Tragicrafts on Etsy. I only hope you’re as proud as I am.

LET THE HEALING BEGIN!

And my number one favorite post of 2009 is . . .

Hold on, let me get a pen.

Got it.

I would like to ask what that means, but it may not be Monday, or within the 3 day period, so maybe I’ll just write it down in my notebook.

Wait a minute, are you asking me questions now? Because that’s not what I signed up for. Plus it hasn’t been 3 days.

So theoretically, you could not check in on me for 6 days, and then all day Sunday you’re up my ass, looking at my items and my ideals? I’m starting to feel a little pressered.

Yeah, okay we get it, you’re the one with the ideals. You don’t have to rub it in, oh look at me, I have ideals all day, I need a notebook. We’ve established already you’re the one with the ideals about the items. That’s why you’re getting the 19.99, and I’m just waiting until Monday so I can ask a question.

Do you take Paypal?
