I’m a little worried about my human. She’s actually really hip and cool — when she’s not at home cuddling me, she goes on adventures to exotic places all over the world. But some of the souvenirs she brings home… well, I think they’re cursed. Last year, she got a necklace made from dinosaur teeth, and her skin got all scaly. Now she’s home from the jungle with an ancient tiger statue, and… well, see for yourself.
Eeeeek!
I went to Twitter and the soles of the socks have toe beans. People seem to be asking where to get the socks in maybe Korean. I see the words Amazon and Lemcos. I definitely want a pair,
Nope. Clicking through it’s, unsurprisingly, Amazon Japan.
Yippee! They have them on our Amazon – and in normal tiger colors! As you can see I’m a leetle excited.
Oh wow, the stuff of nightmares!
Omg I just cannot not look at it. It is the same feeling when an aquantaince of mine introduced his new girlfriend to me and she had a huge moustache. ( Do you know Tom Selleck?) I totally felt embarrassed and just could not look away 🙁
I’m with you on these socks. They give me the creeps. But the kitty looking at them is adorable!
I have trouble with those, too – creepy. Nice pussycat, tho’!
How can that be possible?
I was asking about the woman with the Tom Selleck moustache. I don’t know how it got to be a separate comment. Is this really possible?!
I’m no expert, but I do know that facial hair is not confined to men, and also that not all cultures make a big deal out of that fact.
If you want to learn more, you can do a web search on “hirsutism” or on “mustaches on women” or “women with beards”—you get the idea.
While many of us in the USA and some other countries have been programmed to see facial hair on women (or underarm hair, arm hair, leg hair, etc.) as somehow unfeminine or weird, the world is a far more diverse and interesting place than that programming allows for. I, too, as a person of my time and place, would probably be thrown by seeing a woman with a luxuriant mustache, but I recognize that’s my problem, and that I shouldn’t make it hers.
Certainly! Well said Ricky’s Mom!
I guess I was aware of hirsutism but frankly did not realize that women are, obviously, sometimes just going with it. If we could all do that instead of pulling, plucking, shaving, and electric shocking to avoid scrutiny we’d all be do much happier.
And probably on time more often. 😉
Exactly.
But to be fair, excessive facial hair is usually an indication of a hormonal disorder, such as uterine fibroids, PCOS, etc. They’re very difficult to treat. And this is assuming the person can safely take hormone medication. It’s risky for lots of women who have had breast cancer, for example.
I think it was the combination of some hormonal disorder and the effect of certain pharmaceuticals used by bodybuilders, pro sportspeople etc.
I wasn’t sure what sports she was playing, but she was very muscular. I saw her many more times later on ( my ex-husband and her bf were friends) and she always looked perfect apart from that one time. Here it is the same as in the US, there aren’t many people who can embrace this condition. But she was a really nice girl I liked her a lot.
Is there some backstory on this!????
Well, my Christmas shopping is done.
Thank you! I should have done that. LOL I was too excited!
I want.
Looks like chicken feet on a platter.
You don’t need to buy them through Amazon. (I don’t like to support Jeff Bezos) You can find a seller on eBay. There are also chicken feet/legs and reptile!
I understand your point. On the other hand, he owns the Washington Post and does not interfere at all. Considering how newspapers are doing it is definitely a public service.
One of the Amazon feedbacks seemed to think the ones at What On Earth Catalog were of better quality. Might order me some.
