If You Buy This...

...you're an asshole.

Artist Sylvie Fleury created these garbage cans are made of steel pressed with gold leaf. Limited to a production run of only 25 each one is stamped with “SF 2003” and its individual number on the underside.

So how much will one set you back?

$10,000-15,000.

Like I said, you'd have to be an asshole.

WTF?

How does one justify spending this...

$185- !

on this....
11'' x 16'' unlined nylon bag by Pucci


or better yet this...


$290- !

on this...
18'' x 15'' cotton lined wool bag, no closure by Comme des Garcons

I'll take a dozen! I'll use them as my recyclable green grocer bags. I mean, that's what they look like to me. I made more advanced stuff in my 7th grade home economics class (do they still teach home eco.?).

Seriously, are people really that stupid? For gods sake they couldn't even put one of those little magnetic closures on them? At least Comme de Garcons had the decency to line their bag (for $105- more).

No, I'm not telling you where to buy them. Why? because frankly I will not participate in this greedy ridiculousness! You want it you find it.

WTF?

No, this is not a joke.

According to the commercial:

"Your Chia Obama is a symbol of Liberty, Opportunity, Prosperity and Hope."

"Your Chia Obama makes the statement I'm proud to be an American."


Is it me, or is anyone else out there not exactly filled with American Pride?

Last time I checked the 'Proud to be an American' thing did not have me feel quite so nauseous.

Listening To- MGMT

Here's the deal. I've always liked this song but didn't want to do a "Listening To" post about it until they released the official video (not that contest painted faced kids dancing thing- ick).

Careful what you wish for because they have, and it gives me nightmares. It features a little baby boy (he's absolutely beautiful) being taunted and chased by ghoulish alien creatures. The mom (played by folk singer Joanna Newsom) comes to it's rescue and then dumps it off to wander the streets!?!? It's shit. Scary shit, but total shit in my humble opinion.

Anyways, judge for yourself. Do yourself a favor and jump forward to the 1:00 mark. It's got one of those stupidly long annoying intros before the song actually starts. F-ing MGMT!

MGMT- Kids
