Strangercrombie The Bidding Is Over...

Posted by Paul Constant on Sat, Dec 13, 2008 at 12:06 PM

But you can still win! Strangercrombie, our annual eBay auction for charity is over. But Strangercrombie, our PayPal sale of tote bags and calendars, continues! For just twenty bucks, placed right here:

You can get a lovely Stranger tote bag, which looks like this:

Only much bigger, and not on your screen. For fifty dollars, you can get your choice of either a Gentlemen of Slog or Ladies of Slog calendar. These are filthy reenactments of some of the great Slog Battles of Our Time, as performed by our very own sexy, sexy commenters. Lots of pit bulls eating babies, people! Also: Sexy librarians! Sexy librarians are my favorite Slog topic ever.

There are also these:

Breasts wrapped in bacon, motherfuckers!

And it's for charity! So if you don't have fifty, or even twenty, bucks, you can drop as little or as much as you can in this here Internet button:

And Seattle's foster children will thank you.

Strangercrombie. Once a year, we do something good™.

Dear Stranger People,

I want a calendar, but I have no money. Will I be able to donate in a week or so after my paycheck (hopefully) clears the bank?

Someone did end up eating that bacon, right? You didn't just throw it away afterwards, did you?

Oh, that bacon got thrown away. But before it was thrown away, it was applied carefully and lovingly to Lara by me. And the bacon in the men's calendar was draped on a Jew by a vegetarian.

@3 -

LMAO thanks for saying that

One of the guys at Slog Happy last week told me that he would have bid pretty high on that bacon. Note to ourselves for next year...

I saw this once before, a topless short order cooked leaned too far over the grill...

I resent the gratuitous way in which you sexualize women's breasts. In protest, I have written a one woman show that I will be performing next month at Theatre Off Jackson wearing only my panties.

^^ I hope that's real.

Me too.

I thought this was hilarious until I noticed your comment about 'pit bulls eating babies' and have to assume that you have an irrational obsession with pit bulls since you mention them often and in the most obscure, and non pit bull related, of posts. I think you should really chat to a mental health professional about this problem.

Cassie: I think you missed the point. The calendar is about things that get argued about on Slog. Thus the Great Pit Bull Debate is represented in the calendar.
