Squirrel Butt Package

You see this?

This is what came in the mail yesterday.

It’s a mounted squirrel butt that we purchased off of eBay and I was too grossed out to take it out, because YUCK, there was a gross dead squirrel tail sticking straight out!! UGH.

I literally ran away from the package screaming when I saw it sticking out. And left it there until someone could come home and touch it.

GROSS. Now we just have to figure out where to hang it, preferably in the kitchen so it’ll stop me from eating stale Girl Scout cookies.

Squirrel Butts Galore

March 31, 2009 in Thoughts by Moye | No comments

b6e0_1This squirrel butt may seem like the weirdest thing ever, but it looks like the perfect birthday present for B, who will be turning 13 26 in a couple weeks.

I found this genuine squirrel butt taxidermy (is taxidermied not a real word?) mounted on an oak panel on eBay and I hope no one else bids on it before the auction ends, because there is no way I am going to trap, kill, skin and stuff a squirrel butt on my own.

Here are our ideas of where to put this:

  • Face level in front of the toilet, so you have something to contemplate while you poop.
  • Over our door keyhole. Somehow we’d engineer a piece of lens into the butthole so we could peer out of it.
  • On the fridge so I can use it as my new thinspiration. Trying not to throw up while reaching for more food should keep me from overeating.
  • Above the TV. I don’t know why? But maybe?

Any other ideas?

WTF Etsy?

November 3, 2008 in Fashion, Thoughts by Moye | No comments

Remember earlier this year when I was perusing on Etsy and would find some of the most disturbing pieces for sale?

Well, this time, I present to you the earrings above: “Gothic Victorian Taxidermy Squirrel Feet Earrings,” which were sanitized, cleaned and lovingly pieced together by a store named “Loved To Death.”

Wow. And no thank you. I’d really hate to wearing these and feel tiny dead squirrel claws scraping the side of my face as I walk around.

*shudder*
