Now that's, a hands-on economic recovery strategy.

The Linkdown: Halloween Edition.

1. Oprah has a new logo.

2. Creepy Fashion. Just in time for Halloween.

3. Rubber bands that make shapes....for grown ups. Wait, so the dinosaur one i wear on my risk is for whom exactly?

4. The Obamarator. Yes...that just happened to the current President of the United States.

5. You may have thought you were a loser when you lost your job because of face books Farmville. But atleast you arent shaking your baby to death.

6. Not even Jimmy Choo can un-ugly Uggs.

7. The airbag helment.

8. Being a wine prick gets you nowhere. Isn't that right JC?

9. The Black Panther Coloring Book (this is real).

Creepy Rapping Mice.

For some reason...this creeps me out. Lack of sense aside. And the bit of silly sterotyping involved (cause when did hip hop become "the cool way" of selling cars). This creeps me out the more I look at it.

And then they stuck a dead Hamster in your Hair.

And they called it an accessory. This definetly out does the Pet Pillow I posted about a few days ago. Oh, and there's more. Taxidermy is so hot right now.

And then you see this in a your local mall....

...and you call it a day. Am I right?

Creepiest Ad I've seen in awhile: Pet Pillows.

"Jeanette’s Taxidermy proudly introduces Pet Pillows as an alternative way to remember your pet. Each pet pillow is hand made from the fur of your pet and made into a pillow that you can display. On one side of the pillow is your pet’s fur and the other side of the pillow is your choice of fabric. These soft, huggable pillows are a great way to enjoy your cherished pet and is an inexpensive alternitave to taxidermy.

Prices: $65 for a cat, $75-$125 for a dog, $150 for a horse.

Freeze your pet immediately upon passing to insure there will be no hair slippage.

Double bag to insure no freezerburn.

Ship packages ONLY on Mondays to prevent carrier mishaps. All frozen animals must be shipped next day air to insure against spoilage."

Yep. You too can have a pillow made from the carcass of your beloved, furry and dead four legged friend. Phewww.

Alice in (HELL).

In movie news....a few (creeptastic) pictures from the upcoming Alice is Wonderland that someone  allowed Tim Burton to get his hands on. (DDIB)* Best Week Ever said it best. 

This will surely be the kind of movie that today’s youth will reference 20 years from now as “the movie that f**ked them up for good.

I must say though...they did a bang up job at picking the dude to play the caterpillar (Snape from Harry Potter). 

*Disney did it better

UPDATE: More pics!!!

No, Seriously...Alien Ads.

No seriously...one of the creepiest things I have seen in my life. As I look at the spot, I can't help but to sit here, waiting for the doll to go awol and start scooping kids up (after they were drugged by "the candy"--if you were a parent, why would you let your kid eat that?). And then the robot doll starts throwing them in it's mouth. Inside they would be trapped, bodies flailing, faces bruising as they stepped on each other. Screaming for their parents, they would be cold and the young ones would tremble. And when the monster doll has had enough specimens...it returns to its home planet. And the aliens then dissect them one by one. Think War of the Worlds.

But I mean...that's just me.

Lawsuit Hand Bags.

One creepy hand bag...and other cool ones. Imagine walking down the street or going through the turnstiles at 42nd...and getting your ass beat by a stupid NY cop (not that hard to fathom). All in the name of fashion.

Goat Screams Like a Man...

...and it's creepy.

Linus does Little Boy Blue.

You have to be a LOST fan to know just how creepy Benjamin Linus is on the show. I have personal trust issues with him, but here...he is kinda funny. And don't worry...I am beating myself up for posting the Jay Leno replacment.

Deja Vu

They clearly have the same stylist...

I call this electric socket chic.

The Linkdown.

1. NAACP wrote ad agencies requesting that they use "more diverse teams". The image above was taken from the response section. Insightful, no?

2. PETA strikes again. This time slitting Ronald's throat.

3.Oh...Japan.

4. Get your life size celebrity wax figure here. Creepy.

5. Did you have dinner yet? Ok, good...now watch a man accidentally shoot himself in the head with a harpoon. And then tell me what happened. 

6.Dunny Peeps. Get some for your creative-type love interest.

7. Fashion says...forget the top. Let those boobies fly.

8. New....Blood Cheetos.

9. Wolverine needed real life intervention. And my limewire just missed reeking the benefits.

Creepy Cheap Clothing Ads.

Have you guys seen the new Old Navy commercials? The ones with the mannequins? Well, it turns out they are made by Crispin Porter (all hail the holiest). In my opinion...I was creeped the hell out. The spot where all the mannequins twist their heads around to check out their own mannequin asses, reminds me of the exorcist... with a little bit of Chucky on the side. Or that bad guy from Batman that's just a marionette puppet, but can walk and talk by himself. Except these nightmarish ghouls are trying to convince me that there is some type of an upside to buying a pair of $19 jeans.

Crispin Porter takes it to a viral level for no reason. These side show mannequins all have back stories. They have a youtube channel and a faux magazine dedicated to them. If you are asking yourself why one would care about a cheap mannequin in a cheap store wearing even cheaper clothing...you have made a valid point. Crispin was also kind enough to rename the mannequins for us (to avoid confusion with the higher class ones from Banana Republic, I'm sure). They are called, supermodelquins.

...still creepy.

Ummmm, you can see through this fish's head.

I'm not sure why I'm posting these. They creep me out. Maybe I just wanted to share the creep. Photographer/Artist Gottfried Helnwein.

trippy ads.

in an age where milk just isnt getting the play it use to, DDB Canada made some seriously trippy spots to remind us that "milk, does the body good" and so does a true acid trip. 






Now, while I dont necessarily dislike any of them, I do like this last one the best. But I am struggling with the reasoning behind making the spots so weird. Did it add anything? Or were they just trying to keep interest? How good is the idea if you have to make people a little bit creeped out, just to keep watching until the end? Or maybe its a Canadian thing. I don't know....

But I do however have this funny urge to watch Nickelodeon's Real Monsters. Man...I loved that show as a kid (and now).

spots that make me nervous.

this is unique. except for the fact that it completely reminds me of the 1996 movie,  Lawnmower Man.

And that creeps me out.
