WTF Wednesday: Skippy the Bush Kangaroo, Weasel Plate

 G'day Wednesday! G'day WTF!

 

We found a crazy TV show - "Skippy the Bush Kangaroo" - set in Queensland in the early 90s. Skippy is a female kangaroo family pet like Lassie, but even smarter. You can tell Skippy to go get help from a particular person, and Skippy will hop into a restaurant and find that person ("Skippy & The Golfer" episode). It's a great show full of sweet vintage fashion and I encourage everyone to check it out.  

 

 

G'day, weasel plate!

 

 

 

As with all WTF Wednesdays, there are more questions than answers.  

• Vintage 80s t-shirt DESIGNER with ATTITUDE

WTF Wednesday: Do Your Cigarettes Taste Different Lately?

 Long time, no see, Wednesday! Long time, no see, WTF!

It's been a while since I posted here, for a couple reasons - 

          1. My friend Supermama Vintage alerted me to a Facebook group dedicated to thrift store WTFery and I felt the public's need for thrift store WTFery was/is being met by this group - Weird Second Hand Finds that Need to Be Shared

          2. On the advice of my 11 year old whippersnapper intern niece, I started a vintage Instagram and have been posting pretty regularly over there. Skippyhaha Vintage Instagram.
 

Anyway, I'm glad to be back and I found a few WTF things thrifting today: 

You also got bangs!

The spirit of nature...like a beagle

Last but not least, do your cigarettes taste different lately? 

If this wasn't enough WTF for one week, feast your senses on Guadalajara Joe's brand newly released 6 Episode Series - Hayward to the Mutha!

 Tons of old footage and new ideas, fresh dances, and lots of SHV dancewear! You'll laugh! You'll cry! You'll crave flan!

We went to a rally for Jared Polis and Joe Neguse in Boulder today and Bernie hugged me!
