WTFckery or Not? You Decide

Some interesting WTFckery coming your way...

1. Fugly book cover here. Is he trying to tear off her lip because he's hungry?

2. This has to be the strangest blurb for a book deal I've ever read. Note the squirrel part:

"Martha Brockenbrough's TEN COMMANDMENTS FOR THE DEAD, in which a guardian angel in a rehabilitation program for wayward souls accidentally kills the girl he's supposed to watch over, fails to get her into heaven, and may or may not cause lasting psychological damage to a squirrel, to Arthur Levine at Arthur A. Levine Books, in a pre-empt, for publication in Summer 2012, by Jill Corcoran at The Herman Agency."

3. How do you feel knowing as taxpayers we lost $1.3 Billion in the payout to Chrysler? From The Consumerist: 

"The government bought a piece of Chrysler in a 2009 bailout that turned out to be a costly investment in an automaker deemed too big to fail. Now that the government has sold its remaining interest in the company to Fiat, the U.S. Treasury Department announced the arrangement cost taxpayers $1.3 billion.

CNNMoney reports the Treasury assistant secretary for financial stability says he's happy that the company was able to raise private capital to repay most of the government loan. Chrysler borrowed $12.5 billion from the government and paid back $11.2 billion before the sale. The government won't collect any more of the debt. Estimates say the total auto bailout lost $14 billion in government funds."

4. People actually do eat dirt. From Discovery News: 

"Some humans' urge to consume clay may stem from the activity's protective properties for the digestive system, according to new research to be published in The Quarterly Review of Biology.After examining 482 cases of human geophagy and 330 records of the practice among animals in a meta-analysis, researchers led by Sera Young of Cornell University discovered that eating dirt had little to do with being hungry or seeking minerals the body might be lacking. Rather, the team found that geophagy may help stave off pathogens in the gut, especially for pregnant women and pre-adolescent children.

5. Not necessarily a WTFckery,but looks like something my cat would never use to poop in. Also on the expensive side and the reviews are less than positive. From Amazon:

6. Is this Marilyn Monroe statue too risque to be in public? What do you think? And why would they show Marilyn with granny panties? From Daily Mail:

"A 26-foot tall statue of Marilyn Monroe towering above tourists in the middle of Chicago was unveiled on Friday to much applause. The statue, by artist Seward Johnson, replicates the actress's famous subway scene in 1955 film The Seven Year Itch and was unveiled on Chicago's Pioneer Court.

In the scene Monroe stands over a subway grate as a breeze from a train passing below blows her skirt over her panties."

7. Some baby shower cakes are so very WTF. From Cakewrecks: 

8. I wonder if they'll start selling these baby at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter down in Florida? From I09:

*I can see Leanna Renee Hieber over at Ebay bidding on this Voldermont baby every hour*

9. Looks like Humpy Dumpy will be the star of his own movie.

"Two backwoods redneck brothers are confronted with a dangerous egg-shaped creature whose mother they torture and kill for fun. Half-human, half-alien, Humpty Dumpty exacts his bloody, murderous rage on the brothers in an unforgettable story of revenge."

1. And your Regretsy WTFckery sure is a fugly candle/clay hybrid melting baby: I ask, is this art? WTF do you do with this?
