If you are a follower of Regretsy, you will recognize Hellephant. If you are not a follower, you may only know the site as a forum for snarky foul-mouthed commentary on bad crafting and dumb people. Sure, it's that, but wait, there's more! The site outs copyright infringers and fraudulent "handcrafters" selling mass-produced trinkets as handmade items, and Regretsy followers have donated crafts and artwork to raise funds for several charitable causes. One particular item from a Regretsy charity sale caught my eye a couple months ago: "Hellephant Pet Costume, Fits Small Dog" Well, sign me up! For some reason I actaully thought I was buying a Hellephant hat, but you will see it's much more than that:
Unlike the original, this one is soft and clean, but not lacking any of the pathetic cuteness that has made Hellephant the icon that he is today ("GUESS WHAT I FOUND HIS MISSING EAR").
-Flossie's Person.
You know, sometimes I have no idea what Person is thinking.
Are you out of your effing mind?
You thought this was what? Don't try to tell me the item description had the word "cat" in it; I can tell you it certainly did not. This is very, very wrong, Person.
Seriously. In what universe is this considered acceptable?
Why, Person, why?
I give up. But you can be sure that I will be walking across your lips with litterbox paws tonight when you are sleeping.
You are sadly mistaken if you think I am going to rest while that thing is in my bed.
I am not impressed by the softness of this ear.
Don't you go thinking that this means anything at all.
It's just that there's nowhere else in the entire house for my head to go.
Zzzzzzzzz.
Don't look at me, I am NOT cuddling with it.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
Hillarious!
