Brains: it’s what’s for dinner.

And speaking of, who thought a grinning peanut grinding his own brain out onto a platter was…a great idea for a product? I envision a young Hannibal Lecter having a lovely time with this. Don’t get me wrong. I’d like one.

When a man is asked what is perfectly irresistible I highly doubt “wool mantilla” is the first item that comes to mind (click picture to enlarge).

Carl Turner AKA Biscuitboy

Here is another artist claiming “lowbrow” sculpture and artwork. Carl Turner AKA Biscuitboy rolls with Dr. Seuss as a major inspiration; and perhaps a tinge of Warner Brothers and Disney go into his wildlife sculptures. Some of the descriptions Turner gives for each of his creations are worth as much as the visual impact of the “trophies.”

Dana found us one that I find especially fun today. This young artist debuted this particular display at Monsterpalooza, a Hollywood SFX and Monster expo, this past weekend. His VooDoo Witch Doctor is a fun tip of the pith helmet to Disney and the adventure serials of the 1930′s. And check out that 7 foot tall Shock Monster and Frankenstein Monster he did as well. I want this in my Tiki room!

Those of you who do not have garages should count your blessings. Garage doors are unsightly atrocities, but a necessity nonetheless. But wait! Style Your Garage has a solution for your garage door woes.  More than one–in fact more than we can decide to post here. By no means our favourites, these would be sure to raise eyebrows from passersby; and perhaps irk the neighbours more than the debauched orgies and rocket launches they already have to put up with:

IV Decals by Little Love Medical

Kapow! Dana came across a great accessory line. Little Love Medical makes these great labels to ease the impact of that dreaded IV bag. Their theory is that “spending time in the hospital is difficult for patients, family and friends. Little Love Medical is here to make your stay as pleasant as possible by adding bursts of color and design to everyday hospital products.”

Does it get any more secular than Peeps representing a holiday? Happy Easter, Everyone. Now I’m going out to get me some Peeps! Look at these great entries in a recent Peeps diorama contest.

This is just brilliant, from Despicable Me.

The Shining!

Where do those pink slime burgers come from?

Strap a sausage to your nose and enjoy the art of Victor Castillo. What fun! The images are so familiar, and no doubt draw on some famous and obscure visuals for inspiration.

Xue Wang resides in London, where she paints disturbing scenes with pretty girls and animals into strange or fun settings. Too much eye candy to choose from here. Here’s hoping you enjoy these!

Can’t a Brother catch a break? Let us take ~paws~ from recent posts and share with you centuries old kitteh prints. This 15th Century manuscript shows that a brief instance of feline mischief could be enjoyed and commiserated centuries later. Picture the hapless monk turning from his labours for just a moment, only to find this when he resumed his ministrations:
