Crotchet Catnip Tampon Toy


Excited? So are we! Now your furball friend can also enjoy a bit of tampon fun. Shana, Meowadays creator, bases her crazy creations on the Ren & Stimpy gross/fun mentality. Indeed, a bloody tampon is pretty tame by her standards - you can also invest in a delightful eyeball, poo or foetus. Delightful!

All toys are tested on Meowadays creator - Shana's, cat. "All my toys pass 'The Dr. Zombie Durability & Nuzzle-bility Test'.

USB Holder... or knitted tampon. You decide.

To my utmost delight I recently discovered that the most awesome handcraft site, Etsy, had a little sister, Folksy, in the UK. This has yet to grow into the indulgent dribblesome labyrinth but is definitely a site to watch for future presents (for oneself and of course, others).

Some of the items for sale however, are decidedly dodge. Not least the pink and white knitted USB holder which is currently retailing at £1.99. Poke me in the eye with a fork if I'm wrong, but this isn't so much a USB holder as a freaky woollen tampon. With 2 strings. Why, you can even wear it for fun, to ACCESSORIZE.

Fark that.

DOES everybody love a menstruating girl?

I must say, the more time I spend online the more weirdos I find.

Whilst browsing my favourite site, Etsy, I found a T-shirt that to be quite frank, puzzled me. Why on earth would you buy, let alone WEAR, a T-Shirt that says, Everybody loves a menstruating girl. For a start, no, I don't get that it's a take on the 'Everybody loves an Italian boy' T-shirt - perhaps this just hasn't hit the UK yet. And secondly, chrissakes, the menstruating bit isn't even in blood red. You'd have thought they'd have at least got that bit sorted. And why exclusively a tampon? Isn't that a bit period-ist? What about all the others, like mooncups, fanny pads, jam sponges and goodness knows what other freakish devices there are out there.

It would be interesting to see how many and why these have sold. Check it out for yourself - and let me know if you're tempted.
