Linkblogging

Via growabrain:

Chinese copy artists posing with their works Why does Saturn Devouring His Children look so much more horrific in one of these photos than it does in photos of the original? I guess it has something to do with the mundane, calm surroundings? Or the scale?

Strange knitted things

ETA: Poking around the site with the Chinese copy artists on it, I found this gallery of corner buildings in Hong Kong. I can't say exactly why I love them, but I do.

I just want to know where or why a person would wear a penis cozy. Really. I mean, either your naked or not. Yes?

I love corner buildings too. For me, part of it is that they seem to just pop out from the other buildings like a weird growth that has no bearing on what's going on around them. So happy!

Maybe it's for a stylish member of one of the New Guinea tribes who wear penis sheaths?

That subject line sounds a bit sus, but actually it's about those corner buildings. There's a homewares store in Causway Bay in HK called G.O.D http://www.god.com.hk/ which has posters made up of a montage of those (or similiar) images.

And it just so happens I am going to HK next week for about a month, so if you would like one of those posters, please tell me and I would be happy to buy it for you and post to where-ever in the world you are... ^^

And when someone asks you 'Wow. Cool poster. Where did you get it?', you can say;

"I got it from GOD."

LOL

Duuuude...my weird aunt and her whole family (guys included) would have plenty of crazy knitting creations to contribute to that.

I love to knit...I suck at it, though.

I've knit bikinis. Twice. And I know where to find a pattern for a knit uterus, but I think I'll pass on that one.

But, dude! Knit squid! That thing rules. And the spider gloves are just as awesome, and actually practical, as opposed to the knit digestive tract (as cool as that is, too).
