WTF Wednesday: Senora Chihuahua, Come On and Zoom

Hi Wednesday! Hi WTF!

Let's get some pesky dolls out of the way.  

Believe, pur, doll.

The newscaster queen of Christmas. 

Dolls in their boxes are scarier than dolls out of their boxes.

Help, I'm stuck!

Chi-chi-chi-chihuahua!

Coffee cup brimming with gilded teddy bears. 

The horse is not feeling it, the knight's head is scrunched entirely down on his neck, and WTF is in his hand? 

I love dogs. I could not love dogs any more than I do. Even I would not put this in my house to show my love of dogs. 

Loss of control kit, with diaper inside, and plastic hammer on side to break cellophane. 

Come on and zoom!

Pheobe is about to rock herself away to the bottom of that cliff.

Last but not least, hyper evil hyperextended arm doll!

WTF Wednesday: Sump Pump for Your Stomach

The FDA has just approved this device. 

It sucks the food out of your stomach and dumps it in the toilet before the calories stick to your butt.

The AspireAssist system consists of a thin tube implanted in the stomach, connecting to an outside port on the skin of the belly. About 20 minutes after finishing a meal, users connect the port to an external device, which drains some of the recently-consumed food into the toilet.

WTF Wednesday: Tummy Time, Deer Hugger, Seals

Hey Wednesday! Hey WTF!

Hey clapping girl!

Must be tummy time.

Why the ellipsis, Mr. yarn head? 

Hey you pantsless deer hugger.

Glad there's a label because I would have guessed Bichon Frises. 

This is a seal.

WTF Wednesday: Raggedy Family, Bernie Sanders Year One Photos

Hey Wednesday! Hey WTF!

Hello Raggedy family in Oklahoma! (thanks, kid D!)

Moving on to something equally WTF in a less creepy way - feast your eyes on Bernie Sanders' past year in photos - The Political Revolution: Year One. 

Starting out May 2015 in Burlington, Vermont,

Through last summer in Texas,

 August in Los Angeles,

Stunning display of compassion,

After stunning display of compassion,

He has done some incredible things,

And inspired an incredible number of people,

Like a goddamn Beatles concert,

With his family by his side,

 All day,

Every day,

For more than a year.

How he has the energy for event after event, week after week, I will never know, though it must feel great to be saying the same things you've been saying to empty rooms, only now to overflow stadiums full of cheering people. 

Dozens more photos here: The Political Revolution: Year One.

WTF Wednesday: Cowboy Bulldog, Sucking Pillows

Hello Wednesday! Hello WTF!

I haven't had much time for thrifting in the past week, so here are a few WTF videos I've collected from cyberspace: The Renewed Mind Is the Key:  

A bulldog in a cowboy costume rides a wooden horse: 

This is from 2 weeks ago 2 miles away from here - black bear enters kitchen, eats hershey kisses, walks down to bathroom, home owner calmly films - 

Last but not least, here is Pouncey, who at 4 years old, still sucks on pillows if he goes 2 days without a hike. Here he's made a bosom from his dog bed and sucked on it for a half hour.

Everybody loves shoveling snow. 

A baby is God's way of saying the world should go on.

Blinded, drawn, and quartered rolling clown. 

Breakdancing angel with no nose. 

Last but not least, oodles of poodles.

WTF Wednesday: Body Rubs, Swallowed Magnets

Hello Wednesday! Hello WTF!

I had no idea swallowed magnets could be so destructive. Warning: keep this kids' toy away from kids.

Moving on to 1995, the sculpture. 

Oriental sauna spa body rubs. 

Reminds me of the Willie O poem "Can I Have a Body Rub? Gladly!"

A long day, a hot and sore body,

you're tired after a long drive,

Can I have a body rub?

Playing with the kids, working in the yard,

you've just completed that five mile run.

Can I have a body rub?

Sitting at that desk for six of seven hours,

the stress and all the tension is trying to make you sour, 

Can I have a body rub?

We had a great time at the picnic, softball, sack races and a

whole lot more, now I am in a little bit of pain.

Can I have a body rub?

Coaching Little League and playing in the city league, as you

get older you play the price for these.

Can I have a body rub?

Our days have ups and downs, we do so many things to get

ourselves off track, or make life a funny thing, but to let off

a little steam and help yourself relax.

GO AHEAD AND GET A BODY RUB
YOUR LOVER WILL CHARGE NO TAX!

CAN I HAVE A BODY RUB?
GLADLY,

NOW JUST KICK BACK!

Last but not least, minimum wage rock n roll from the Bus Boys.
