Photodump: The "Gosh, this city is quite Odd sometimes" Edition

[sabotabby]

There are some good ones here, I think.


After the Wobbly meeting yesterday, some FWs and I went out for beer. We each ordered a beer of a different colour. Mine is the red one, which I thought was going to be like KLB Raspberry Wheat Ale but turned out to be sort of like cough syrup with alcohol in it. Oh well.




Then we went to the Cameron House. I was hoping that this guy dressed like this all the time, but it turns out he was just in a band.

Today, zingerella and I went to Honest Ed's and took pictures of as many awesome things as we could find.



Okay, an Elvis lamp isn't really tasteful, but you could see why someone might think it was a good idea. But it'd be better if someone made, say, a lamp with crying eagles and motorcycles on it, or maybe a lamp with crying Native Canadians on it, or hey...



Or even better...



Too bad they couldn't find a way to combine Dale Earnhardt and Jesus.



This is laundry detergent. The product line includes Soft Boy, for gentle washing, and Power Boy, for really vigorous cleaning.

Guess what they call the detergent they make for dark clothes?

That guy looks like the child of Charlie Chaplin and Sonic the Hedgehog playing in KISS.

[sabotabby]

Yes.

He had a really good voice, as it turned out.

On a trip to Bed, Bath & Beyond, I found a product called Butter Boy, which amused me because there is a recreational lube called Boy Butter.

[sabotabby]

I would never be able to use a lube called that. I would burst out laughing.

[florence-craye.livejournal.com]

Even better, Boy Butter is in a butter-like tub or squeeze bottle.

Did you go to my favourite place? i.e. the Victory Cafe?

If so, I think I'm the only person in the world who likes Amsterdam Framboise.

[sabotabby]

Naturally.

And yes, I think you are the only person in the world who likes Amsterdam Framboise. I heard that Amsterdam bought KLB, so I thought it would be like KLB. It wasn't.

Is there any word on what's going to happen to Honest Ed's? Do I need to make a Toronto pilgrimage?

I'm not sure I ever bought anything of substance there (perhaps toiletries?), but it was always fun going through there.

[sabotabby]

You need to make a Toronto pilgrimage so we can hang out. But as for Honest Ed's, I haven't heard. I think some people would riot if it closed, and other people would throw parties.

Something may have gotten lost in translation.

It reminds me of this ad someone posted on time. I think it was from an Ikea catalog or something. It was for a computer desk for kids, and I guess it came in a few different colors, but this one was black. So the ad says "Black kid's desk".

That beer photo is all arty and junk. The rest are awesome subjects.

[sabotabby]

Arty? It's beer!

[ironed_orchid]

That's why it's arty, you took the mundane and etc. etc.

Too bad they couldn't find a way to combine Dale Earnhardt and Jesus.

I'm sure someone is working on this right now, it's only a matter of time.

[sabotabby]

If they don't, I will.

In fact, I may make that the next time I get drunk.

[eternal-green.livejournal.com]

That jesus lamp rocks my socks.

[sabotabby]

I told zingerella that we needed one, but she begged to differ.

[zingerella.livejournal.com]

You can put it in your room.

[esizzle.livejournal.com]

Hey, you're the slowest drinker ! you're glass is the most full out of the four (or least empty, heh)

[sabotabby]

Normally I'm faster than everyone else. I think I might have just been talking a lot.

[courtly.livejournal.com]

Nothing was as creepy as those beers... *shudder*

[sabotabby]

What? Why?

[courtly.livejournal.com]

There's a difference between a tint and... something that looks like it needs Dry Ice and a Hallowe'en Party from the 80's to surround it.
