WTF Or Not? You Decide. And Awesome Grover Old Spice Commercial

WTFckery coming your way. Beware! I am showing of the tuggie! What's that you ask? Scroll down to find out but maybe NSFW...

1. Some awesome YA cover fail here! Ana from Books Smugglers found this on That Cover Girl blog. Looks like the book is pretty good since on Amazon the 10 reviews posted have given Awakened 5 stars. But the cover! EEK.


Synopsis: Book 1: AWAKENED

Orphaned as a child and raised by her grandfather, Lil Falcon is concerned with navigating her new high school and is unaware she's a descendant of the Nephilim, a race of beings with super powers tasked with protecting humanity from the demons who threaten it. But when she meets Bran, his psi energy unlocks her latent abilities and opens her eyes to what she is, a Guardian.

But Bran has a secret and befriending him sends Lil down a dangerous path that will either destroy her or make her stronger.

2. Actually this Barbie book is pretty awesome! Raise your hand if you used to have Ken and Barbie act out scenes from the Kama Sutra? Why didn't I think of this idea for a book? Bad Barbie by Christine Faulkner. Thanks to Ms. Moonlight!


Synopsis: "Bad Barbie, published to accompany a show of David Levinthal s photographs of the same name, reproduces 25 black and white images the artist made in his early experiments shooting toys. Arranged in a loose narrative sequence the photographs depict the commercially ubiquitous dolls, Barbie, her boyfriend Ken, and G.I. Joe, in a series of poses and tableaux of sexual liaison and activity. The young artist was responding to a contemporary atmosphere of new sexual license enjoyed by youthful America following the liberal-leaning social upheavals of the 1960s. With eleven pages of text featuring an introductory note by Richard Prince and a racy narrative fiction by John McWhinnie."

3. What is wrong with people? Poor little Hedgehog! Thanks to author Allison Pang, my fellow WTFckery affecinado!


4. We all need an Avenging Unicorn Play Set. From Archie McPhee. All yours for $12.99.


Everyone wants an imaginary unicorn friend that they can call forth to smite their enemies. The Avenging Unicorn Play Set has everything you need to use the power of the unicorn to rid your life of irritations. Put the posable, 3-3/4'' tall, hard vinyl unicorn on a flat surface and then impale one of three 3-1/8'' tall, soft vinyl figures included. Also includes four interchangeable horns (classic spiral, chrome, glow and pearlescent).

5. One reason I will never eat chicket nuggets ever again. This really came as a shock. Looks like bubble gum intestines. From Early Onset of Night:


"Say hello to mechanically separated chicken. It’s what all fast-food chicken is made from—things like chicken nuggets and patties. Also, the processed frozen chicken in the stores is made from it.

Basically, the entire chicken is smashed and pressed through a sieve—bones, eyes, guts, and all. it comes out looking like this. There’s more: because it’s crawling with bacteria, it will be washed with ammonia, soaked in it, actually. Then, because it tastes gross, it will be reflavored artificially. Then, because it is weirdly pink, it will be dyed with artificial color."

6. One messed up photoshop disaster right here. Elastic Girl relaxing on a boulder and waiting for Gumby and Pokey to join her. From Bits and Pieces:


7. Need a Halloween costume idea for your new born or toddler? Why not the Happy Mutant 3-Armed Baby Costume?


"This year we were a Nuclear Family for Halloween, with our 4-month-old daughter Corvidae dressed up as a 3-armed happy mutant. While we wanted to be subtle, this was almost too subtle - she wore the costume all day, and hardly anyone noticed! But when they finally detected a problem, the responses were excellent."

8. For those cold nights in the mountains while you and your man "snuggle" together in front of the fireplace. I give you the tuggie! A snuggie for the penis. Mho's been eyeing this for himself. Just visualize a sheep with a tuggie... From Spencers:

The Tuggie Sock- $9.99
Snuggle up with the fuzzy sock that warms your cock! The original Tuggie is perfect for warming your morning-wood, hiding your afternoon boners, and disguising those all-day semis. Don’t be fooled by cheap imitations—only the Tuggie keeps your hands-free and your junk covered anywhere you go! Ordinary tube socks work great but they look terrible! The stylish, leopard-print Tuggie wraps around your pleasure rod and sack, allowing you to let your stuff hang in any setting you can imagine. Wear it on the plane, in cold movie theaters, at the ball game, on vacation or to the beach--it doesn't matter, you still look and feel great!

9. Since watching this latest Halloween commercial for Snickers, I've been afraid to go food shopping. Creepy! But over 400,000 have viewed it on You Tube already.



10. And your Regretsy WTFckery makes me think of road kill. Road kill you can wear on your finger. Should I be shocked that this ring is sold out already?


I have a final treat to end this week's WTFckery. This video is not a WTF at all, but I couldn't wait to post it. I give you Grover's take on the Old Spice commercials with Smell Like a Monster. Perhaps one of the cutest sketches ever from Sesame Street? What do you think?

I can't decide if I want the ring or the unicorn set more.

I don't eat meat (or pink goo stuff), so that chicken thing ishy whatever didn't even make my stomach cringe, but that poor hedgehog!! Some corners of our species need bleaching.

I will never eat fast food chicken again. Ever.

Love Grover! So very cute.

Chris said...

#4 is kinda cool. :)

The Grover sketch is cute, but the Cthulhu spoof on the Old Spice commercial remains my favorite thus far.

Smash Attack! said...

Elastic Girl! Her leg is totally not attached. LMAO.

Tam said...

I need an avenging unicorn. In real life.

That photoshop leg is baaaaaad.

Sex with a hedgehog? I think that witch doctor was pulling his leg. She knew what would happen. Poor little thing. I'm thinking premature ejaculation will be the least of his worries for the next few weeks.

Melissa said...

Julie said...

Lily of Darkness said...

Wow Gover was mad hot in that.

Epic fail on the photoshop. EPIC.

Loved the hedgehog. It reminded me of a story my dad told me about when he was security at the hospital. A guy came in with his arm all tore up like it had been in a meat grinder. They guy told him he was told hedgehog meat was the best tasting stuff ever so he tried to catch one. He shoved his hand down in the hole or where ever he had the poor thing trapped and it mauled his arm, not to mention the needles sticking out of his torso. The guy then proceeded to put it in the trunk of his car "in case it was rabid" When my dad went out to the car the hedgehog was not in the trunk and presumably loose in the car. He called animal control and they found the poor thing inside the car and it came back clean. The man was just uber stupid. Sometimes in real life people are TSTL. Seriously.

Lily: Guy deserves it! Don't mess with the hedgehog.

Long live Grover! :)

Jessica said...

That meat thing is highly HIGHLY misleading.
