??!! Who Knew Puppies Could be so Terrifying?
posted by on September 5 at 10:45 AM
So there’s this new shop in Ballard just down the street from me. I walk by it almost daily, but I’ve never noticed the name because I’m too distracted by the most fucked up window display in the history of all window displays.
Look at it… just look at it. It’s a bunch of stuffed puppy dogs hanging from a metal tree. You can buy them, they’re about $40 a piece. $40 A PIECE. FOR A STUFFED DOG WITH A LEATHER STRAP.
During the day it’s absurd, but harmless. At night, though, it’s just terrifying! So much so that the other night I had a dream about the hanging pups. They were alive. They were hanging from the tree, snapping and scratching at me, flashing their teeth in anger, trying desperately to release themselves from their branches so they could attack.
When I walked by last night a couple girls were admiring them—“That one is so cute!”
No, no it’s not cute. It’s utterly fucked up, Seattle, and you know it.
Woof.
This really isn't as bad as you're making it out to be. I recommend you fix your it"s, absured, and follow up with some therapy. Or something to report.
I'm grumpy today. Forgive me. :(
Me too. Poe. We have a case of the Wednesdays.
$40 doesn't seem crazy to me. What would you price your stuffed dog with a leather strap's at?
I believe those are handbags, people. I have seen them used them as purses...but yet to see them as toy dog carriers.
Aww, that sounds like a scary dream, Megan. Maybe you should do some journaling about it.
i too have seen these evil incarnates. the other day i was making my now daiy walk to the locks and stumbled across these. i had to stop awhile and get a grasp on what i was looking at.
Megan,
You have yet to fix your spelling of absurd.

...I believe you'd get your ass kicked saying something like that, man.
Word.
@1 and 7: Fixed. Duh, Megan.
Sorry you're grumpy. Would a snuggly dog purse cheer you up? No promises that it won't come alive and shred you to pieces with it's puppy teeth while you sleep, though.
Do you think they make little muzzles for them?
I'm not sure, Megan. What I am sure of is that you are absolutely fabulous, and I truly hope my shitfuck attitude today has had no effect on your day.
;)
You're not ruining my day at all, Poe. Especially now that you said I'm fabulous.
Also, I just noticed my it's/its typo in my last comment. I'm full of mistakes. Maybe we both need new puppy purses.
Sounds like a date. Leave your purse at home. I'll bring the brick.
That's even creepier than Build a Bear.
