In the spirit of Halloween, here are a few of my strangest finds from the last few months. No triangle eyes or jagged teeth for this pumpkin-- nope, this one gets long eyelashes and elegant gloves! I think I would feel better about this one if I knew that it's the pumpkin who dreams of being a duck, and not the other way around. A new genre altogether—the patriotic pumpkin. Where are his teeth? And his eyeballs? And does his smile have to be THAT wide and creepy? I think this is supposed to be a man with a great big jutting jaw covered in a massive beard. But there's no color, no definition other than the skis. My eyes swim looking at him. There's no eye patch, but I'm guessing this guy is a pirate. Have you ever seen
such a look of disgust? (I've placed him near my cat's litter box-- seems like a good place for that permanent scowl.)
