WTF Wednesday: Pig Pickin, Bikini Frog, Satin Jesus


Hello Wednesday! Hello WTF!

Here's a new twist on the term "pig pickin'."
 

Now a delightful naked person sitting on a cloud of bubbles.




Total babe. Yes.


I don't remember Jesus wearing a white suit with shiny peach necktie, but I guess so.

  
Last but not least, here is Pouncey giving his WTF face. 


 As with all wtf wednesdays, there are no answers, only questions leading to more questions.

WTF Wednesday: Druggie Unicorn, Love Monkeys, Dangling Generators


Welcome back to WTF Wednesday!

Let's begin with some woodcarving wall mural aboard the Carnival Fantasy cruise ship. 

unicorn on drugs


Hello, drug addled unicorn. 

Here's a work of thrift store art.



Hello, drug addled mallard ducks. 

I do not understand why the grocery store has a display of life sized Valentine's monkeys for sale.



How about a permanent dryer vent cutting through the Mexican restaurant?

Here's a scene from Sunday along the highway in South Carolina.

 dangling machines

The site was completely deserted with those heavy machines dangling from a cable. WTF?!

WTF Wednesday: 40th birthday

We have secretly replaced this episode of WTF Wednesday with a 40th birthday wish to Kevin: may your next 40 be equally healthy, lucky, and fun! 

Here is a picture of a puppy shaped like a beach ball.

WTF Wednesday: Craft Fails, Crochet Pants, Wrestling


Hellllllo WTF Wednesday! 

Let's begin with a few major Craft Fails.  A couple of weeks ago, the lovely Jessica over at A Day in the Life of One Girl ran a contest and I was the lucky winner of a funny book called Craft Fail: When Homemade Goes Horribly Wrong.

This book is WTF Wednesday come to life. It shows pictures of beautifully done crafts, next to wretched attempts to copy those crafts. (See, eg, Jessica's spray painted high heels). 

Here are a couple examples of the ridiculousness.  Shark Week Cupcakes. Ummmmm? 



Bad Bunny Cake. Errrrr?



 And here are some Craparons. 



I would still eat them! It's not all baking - there are people trying to make hats, wreaths, candles, and more, all with very little success. It's a sweet, lighthearted book that would make anybody smile. 

Moving along to some more crocheted glory from the Good Housekeeping Needlecraft Magazine 1973. 



Interlocking Stitch Pants! 



Wonder why crochet knit swimsuits never took off. 



Perfect for the beach - afghan blanket with a drawstring waist. Why is she stepping on the fence?


I love the fuzzy look!

Here's a story out of Florida about a man who took his clothes off in a CVS and tried to sleep on some dog beds. I think we can all relate to that.

Last but not least, this is a reader-submitted bit WTF-ery coming from LindZ. The picture is NSFW, so click if you wish: some kind of wrestling thong 'underwear.'

widespread puppy


if you ever want to be popular, walk a puppy through the lobby of a westin hotel at 1 AM on new years eve.

we went to charlotte for widepsread panic on wednesday and sugarhoney came with us. she was the star of the city.


tongue out tuesday


while walking her past the nascar hall of fame, a cop drove by, leaned her full torso out the window, gave a thumbs up, and yelled "that is the best dog ever!"

kevin carried her on the elevator to avoid her scaring people in their fancy clothes.  a cop in the lobby saw this and said, "uh oh, is that dog too drunk to walk?"

dozens of people passing by stopped, turned around, and squealed "PUPPY!!!" to each other, asking to pet her. she just wagged her tail, cool as a cucumber.

one kind young man flyyyiiiiiing high on new years spirit on the full elevator grabbed her ears (lovingly), got nose to nose with her and yelled "YOU ARE JUST THE CUTEST LITTLE FUCKER!!!!!!"

the show was excellent, the band sounded great, the setlist was thoughtful, uplifting, and everybody was having a good time...



it was an awesome way to ring in the new year. 

best wishes for a healthy and happy 2015 to all!
