Grimace McSection

You are what you eat, apparently, or at least where you work. And now I know where all my McNuggets are stored.

From shirt.woot and designer Glen Brogan: "Grimace weighs over 540 pounds. He is only 25, but suffers from hypertension, Type II Diabetes, elevated cholesterol, gallstones, Gout, sleep apnea, and has recently suffered a mild heart attack."

Space Invader Autopsy

And here I thought they were ships. My bad. Alien Autopsy, from Threadless designer Chris Rowson.

So what's with all the Space Invader (and Pac-Man and Super Mario for that matter) references lately? Is my generation really getting that nostalgic? I suppose I shouldn't ask that without a solid look back at my postings.

It's Not Easy Dissecting Green

So is Kermit unhappy because he's dissecting a frog or is he bothered by what he sees inside, knowing his innards are somebody's hand? (From Annalee at deviantART via The Daily What)

Knitsections & Feltidermy

I was never much into biology or hunting and, seeing as my father was both a biology teacher and an avid hunter, I'm sure he was a little disappointed. But thanks to knitter CraftyHedgehog, I can now relive my Gr. 11 dissection class with a slightly less queasiness.

"Wow your scientist friends and colleagues with the coolness of this piece of knitted art. The rat is hand knit from an acrylic mohair blend, and his little innards are needle-felted by hand out of 100% wool. He comes pinned into his actual dissection tray, but he is not glued down, so you can take him out and cuddle him if you wish." (Link via Neatorama)


If your tastes run more to the big game side of nature, you can mount a trophy buck or rhino (or dozens of other animals) on your wall without ever harming a critter, thanks to girlsavage's feltidermy.

Soft and cuddly stuffed animals — they aren't just little girls anymore. (Link also via Neatorama)
