Here we go again. Another weekend, another Sunday supplement and another contender for the Tat Emporium ! A Bruce Lee commemorative pen knife ? I ask, in the name of all that's normal, who the hell wants a Bruce Lee commemorative pen knife ? Who collects pen knives ? At least its *only* £29.95. Not like previous examples of tat that have graced this blog."Selectively plated with 22 carat gold". "celebrating the honourable spirit of Bruce Lee" (err...didn't he die of steroid abuse ??). I would be severly disappointed if anyone ever thought of buying me such tat. Having said that however - its that bad its almost good. For the sheer buttock-clenchingly awfulness of it, its almost desirable. If only so you can point at it and say "at least I never created anything as shite as that !".
Perhaps the answer is to start collecting the most God-awful, gaudy, over-sentimental ornaments that I can find and start a true Tat Emporium ? Mind you, it would cost me. Better maybe to create a web page with just the advertisements on it. Yeah, that would be good enough. There must be others out there who are as fascinated by concepts such as collectible pen knives and Prince William Teddy Bears. I'm sure that if I did there would be others contributing examples of awfulness to it. I might just give it a go.
At a slightly more pricey £48, you could allow your home to be graced by Dillon - who is, apparently, "bursting with personality". "Full of mischief and full of fun, he is fascinating friendly and just waiting to be loved". Seeing as he was "skillfully hand-crafted using artists resins (?)", I think we can safely discount any thoughts of life lurking within this "lovable little donkey".Anyway, is it just me or does he just look evil ???
