If anyone ever finds a copy of this…may I buy it?

Target gets some great Halloween items, but someone really dropped the ball on this costume (pun intended, I guess).
This is either a female baseball player outfit or a cheerleader costume, with the worst letter spacing I’ve ever seen. I’m sure “adult” costumes are full of bad puns, but come on…Target is a family store.
The phrase HOME RUN, which somehow became a sartorial abbreviation for “This is a baseball costume” (though I’m not even sure this IS a baseball costume) is improvidently divided into a glittering “HO” “ME”. Is this bastard creation rife with perverted undertones, or is ignorance to blame?

Okay, here are two totally unrelated things I just came across. If you really use your imagination, they fit right into the Halloween Countdown.

Next, the anatomically correct Stay Puft Marshmallow Man from Jason Freeny.
On the flip side, we have this extremely INCORRECT rendition of pumpkin anatomy, featured on The Surfing Pizza. This toy was placed in the perfect category of “Not Really Evil, But Kind of a Jerk.”
Never thought you’d get to see a rubber, rabbit-faced, four-limbed, lanky, pumpkin-headed creature, riding upright on a bike with more than a healthy dose of road rage despite the gigantic lollipop on board? VIOLA! Thanks, Pizza!
Now, the Claws Will Tear Us Apart shirt. A favorite animal, a favorite album, a clever image:

I don’t like missing days of posting, but sometimes non-blog life demands a little extra attention. I hope to be back in the swing of things tomorrow.

I could have sworn I posted this amazing picture at some point (I guess I didn’t devote an entire post to it):
Well, a brilliant submitter who saw the design on Threadless turned it into a phenomenal CAKE!

Another thing I’d love to add to my baking supply arsenal: NINJABREAD MEN cookie cutters!
Give me these, some black, white and red icing…I’d quickly pass a whole afternoon.

This is my new favorite song. I’m not certain, but I think I found it on WFMU.
Twinkie insanity has got a hold on me…It’s drivin’ me so crazy, I might kill everyone I see…
Get it!

A cautionary tale about alcohol…
Three cheers for perfect parenting! Go ahead and shrink wrap ’em while you’re at it…
Stylish advancement in head and body gear:
You don’t see the winning combo of cookies and guns widely offered anymore.
An existential dilemma:
Someone may be gravely injured…very soon.
I actually have a postcard copy of this somewhere.
