WTF Wednesday: Outraged Seals, Tea Leaf Green Is Back

 Hola Wednesday! Hola WTF!

 

Hola, Sleeping elf gnome!

 

 
 
Hola, outraged seals, interrupted!
 
 
 
Last but not least, and this is not a real WTF, I'm overjoyed to report that after a 6 year semi-hiatus,Tea Leaf Green is recording a new album! We saw them twice over Memorial Day weekend here in Colorado and they brought the fuego. Here is Josh Clark in a Skippy Haha Vintage 70s t-shirt on stage at Levitt Pavilion Sunday May 26 (photo by Joel Riekel).  





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

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.

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!

she's all i got



The spirit of nature...like a beagle

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

Bernie Sanders Hugged Me

 

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

 

We got there early and made it to the front row. I was wearing my Bernie onesie jumpsuit and he laughed and said "I guess we gotta hug" and then BERNIE HUGGED ME.
