Random: Deep Sea Monster
(:in Jacques Cousteau voice) "In zee deepest parts of zee ocean, strange creatures can be seen dimly.
Zhey look like somesing from a nightmare. Sometimes, zee creatures come to the surface and terrorize people.
And on very rare times, zhey come on land and terrorize automobile drivers. Oh merde, here'z one now!!!

Random: Project Pink 4! Yahtzee!
The unholy alliance of Hasbro and Toys'R'Us have produced yet another hellspawn that will forever haunt us!
Unless you like pink stuff.

IT'S FUZZY!!!!
And it costs $14.99, just like the Pink Magic 8-Ball from last time.

Random: Packrat
I like to keep my car clean.
Unlike this person:

The poor woman had her seat all the way forward and was pressed against the steering wheel.
Such was the power and volume of her Clutter Monster.
Don't be like her.

Random: Pink Magic 8-Ball
Wow, can you believe it's been almost 2 months since I've posted a Random!?!?
So here's a fresh one for all y'all!

Sure, $14.99 seems a little steep for a Magic 8-Ball molded in pink plastic.
But look at the awesome pink pillow with tassels that's included with it! That's gotta be worth the extra money!!

Project Pink 2: The Tinkering
So, back on April 1st, I posted about the bewildering array of pinkified boardgames one could find at WeBeToys'N'Sheeeet.
GUESS WHAT?!?!!?

"Pink, purple and green pieces inspire creative imaginations!"
I guess OTHER COLORS are confusing to girls!!
And yes, this is another TRU exclusive, just like the other pink crap.
I'm gonna go play with my non-pink Legos now...
EDIT: Just so we're clear, I don't actually have much of a problem with pink stuff.
I'm doing this purely for fun and mock outrage, and nothing more.
Lego has a pink theme called Belville and I don't rail against it.
Purple and green are fine colors and the Drazi think they're good enough to base a government on. :D
Heck, my Rubik's Snake (recently renamed Rubik's Twist) is purple and green, and I love it!
That said, I do find a couple of pink things objectionable, like for example the pinkified Game Of Life.
Now, I seem to remember the Game Of Life being a family game, meaning for the whole family.
Is there something wrong with it now that means making a special version of Life just for girls?
That just seems weird to me.
But hey, it's not important.
More pressing matters await our attention.

For the record, my favorite band is The Stranglers.

Random: Walking The Turtle

Something I saw today, while stopped at a red light.
A man walking his turtle.
It was a big one too, easily 20 inches, with taller pyramid-like thingies on top of its shell.
I'm not sure what kind of turtle that is.
I want to say a box turtle but I don't know why.
What are the leash laws on turtles? :)

Random: Far Out, Man!

Another beautiful day in L.A....
This was taken in Malibu back in June, at the corner of Topanga Canyon and Pacific Coast Highway.
Look at that ocean!
Look at those boring Japanomobiles!
Look at that damn hippie holding up a sign!
Wait, he needs WHAT!??!
