If there's anything more important than my ego around, I want it caught and shot now.

Eh, it's not too bad. Personally, I think tubing behind a motorboat is way more stupid since you can easily drown in a lake.

Yeah but when you wipe out water doesn't hurt like pavement.

So just wear a life jacket. Problem solved. Tubing is like a million times safer than this, the only possible danger there is that you get run over by some other boat that doesn't see you after you bail out.

I'm convinced that there's some kind of valley right next to the Uncanny Valley, except even more freakish, where the people from drawings like that one can live and frolic and play. Even the Uncanny Valley people think they're horrid. They hush their Uncanny children, quietly admonishing them, "We do not speak of the the Ungodly Valley."

In real life that cat would be a yowling, thrashing, demon of fur and claws. Though honestly I think Feistybutt's cute.

edit: She seriously needs to change that url. It does not make me think of a cartoon cat. No. Not at all. Though I do admire the charming innocence of someone who could, in all apparent seriousness, think that would be a good name for toy from a children's book. I kind of wish I could sometimes be like that again.

Yeah, I backed the project, even though it won't go through, just to offer a pat on the head to this random cat-doodlin' mom with absolutely no awareness of how "Feisty Butt Fun Toy dot-loving-com" sounds to us. Tragedy and comedy are often the same story!

There's something really heartwarming about someone writing their own children's stories, even if their art does suck poo poo. All the more so when they make a plushie out of a character :3:

Maybe it's because some little part of me thinks that those stories are going to form a not-insubstantial part of some kid's childhood somewhere, and that plushie is going to be their best friend for a few years. And I can't make fun of that.

I get the impression that Feistybutt is an actual cat that this lady owns. :3: I don't have any money to contribute to her doomed kickstarter (I've spent my discretionary money in a hotdog venture), but gently caress it -- next time I have a few spare bucks I may see if I can commission a painting or t-shirt or something from her.

You know, I'm broke as hell, but looking at some of these silly, humble, kickstarters has made me want to be a millionaire for the first time in a long while. I just want to make all their dreams come true. :unsmith:

At this point her project is extremely unlikely to be successful unless a guardian angel donor swoops in with a $1600 pledge in the next 6 hours so if you wanted to show her some moral support you could pledge a couple bucks and be safe in the knowledge that it most likely* won't get deducted from your account.

I thought you made the bottom examples to make fun of the bag until I clicked the kickstarter and welp. Eco-friendly tote bags are available everywhere, but they don't have "Suburban white high school circa 1998" slogans on them so I guess they feel this is a thing that needs to happen. What's next, "My Nigs grow Figs," "Kill (pests organically) Whitey"? Also "waves of clarity" sounds like what you feel after you wake up in a city park covered in your own vomit for the fifth time.

I hope someone calls her out on her minstrel show bags.

Seems like a thing you could use any other bag for and not pay $25. Hell I could get a bag like that at any supermarket checkout line for a buck fifty or so. Just with a generic supermarket logo instead of this, uh, slogan.

I'd be willing to bet that if she had more than 1 "Feisty Butt Fun" adult t-shirts available then she would have met her goal.

Why 1? Is it hand made? If so, $10 is wayyyy to low to be charging for an original hand-made Feisty Butt Fun t-shirt.

I just like saying Feisty Butt Fun.

Eh, just toss her the promise of ten bucks, and if by magic it actually gets funded I'll consider it a wager and reimburse you.
