Comments on Today in Hobbies That Creep the Shit Out of Me

I fucking love Degrassi! I wish they'd quit doing stupid things with Marco's hair though.

Wow. If you go look at that woman's website, it becomes even more horrifying. Her dolls aren't sold, they're "adopted." Except for the poor little "Jammy Baby," who just gets sold, and for a paltry $95 at that.

Also, the "Nasha" doll (gotta love the "ethnic" name for the black baby, btw) looks like a 40 year old man's head on a baby's body.

Now I'm going to go have nightmares. Thanks, Lindy.

Gitai: I know, right!?!? That show rules. But anything they do with Marco's hair is better than the time they shaved half of Spinner's head and gave him that combover.

Megan: You're welcome!

I don't understand the "reborn" doll phenomenon either. Creepy indeed.

Dear god. Can't sleep. Babies will eat me.

These would kick ass if they were twelve feet long.

I'm imagining the red-haired one is doing that Joe Pesci monologue about being a clown. "I amuse you?" It's even scarier the original.

*shudder*

There was an article in Wired a while back about a company that took photos of stillborn babies and photoshopped the hell out of them to make them appear "lifelike".

It was profoundly creepy and sad.

My mother collects dolls, so I have that attitude, you know, "I've seen everything (about dolls)...how bad can this website be..." The first thing I saw was a tiny naked baby on a bear skin called "bear skin girl." Well, now I've seen everything.

just do a google search for "marzipan babies" and tell me that doesn't creep you out even more.

show me something (anything!) creepier than THIS:

I'm too kind to post an actual link, but do a google image search for "harlequin baby" or "harlequin fetus" and just try to believe in a benevolent god.

Ew Eric - why would you share that?!

Because those fucking things lost me about a week's sleep last summer, and misery loves even belated company. But I am sorry. Deeply, deeply sorry.

THOSE are going in the 'Cthulhu' sequel. Yow.

Do those come in peppermint?

This is also scarier than those porcelain babies:

(What is it with creepy baby shit today? Is it not enough that my own little uterine parasite is trying to escape out my naval? Everything else has to be creepy too? Argh!)

For another creepshow: Watch that QVC or Home Shopping Network deal that Marie Osmond has showcasing her line of dolls. Just give it 10 minutes. "Fans" call in and talk about how they display their little baby dolls and Marie just smiles and nods, holding the doll in front of her stomach to hide how much blubber she's packed on.

What if you buy one and then it comes to life at night and skitters around the house. Then a butcher knife goes missing.

i'd like nothing better to do with my Friday nights than to sit at home and watch the latest episode of Degrassi...

art

better art than the stuff in most galleries - or that jen graves writes about here at Slog

creepy, how silly

dolls have had a place in human culture for thousand of years, all times and all places

guess the Stranger reader freaks are not human

engage brain, allow for different tastes, and the world looks better

i love the one that looks so much like my sister as a baby - how much?
