I am at least relieved it isn't made of scrotum.

Back in the 1800s, there was a bushranger called Mad Dog Morgan who was killed during a robbery. The governor of the colony ordered his scrotum cut off and made into a Tobacco pouch.

It also lead to one of the greatest moments in Australian cinema:

Iceland is the place that where the government issued an official phone app that lets you check if somebody you met is too closely related to you to have sex with, right?

The app was just an extension of an already existent database created by biotech company deCODE genetics in 2003 with the aim of tracing the linage of every single Icelandic person back to the settlement of the country in the 9th century. It isn't quite there yet but it does contain the lineages of 95% of people born after 1700. Before that records get a bit spotty. The furthest back I can trace my own ancestry is only to 1630.

The app itself was made by some university students as a part of a app-making contest.

The homeowner also started a gofundme.com account to raise more money for even gayer decorations after receiving that letter and raised $43,000 but then the cops got involved and asked for the original letter so they could investigate the matter and the homeowner then shut down the gofundme and returned all the donations so who knows if the letter was real or not.

I figured it wasn't real. Bigotry usually isn't so polite. Should have kept the donations though. Is there any law against that? I thought gofundme couldn't do anything if you cash out and close the site.

I'm super disappointed because I expected something gay. That's relentlessly Midwestern mom. Midwestern moms are naturally drawn to themed collections of surprisingly expensive crafts that express common pleasant feelings. My wife's mom covered the walls of her house in tiny decorative outhouses and farming implements that say "love" "togetherness" "happy" and whatnot. My mother enjoys cows, but is otherwise anhedonic, so she covers her house in cow art that lacks treacly phrases.

I mean, I'm sure a very motherly, uncreative gay person could have been behind those jars, but if I was rolling by I wouldn't think that the homo agenda was spreading; I'd think that someone's mom ran out of room in the house and so she was forced to go to work on the yard. I'd imagine a middle aged man watching her ruin his lawn from inside the house, a single tear tracing the contour of his cheek.

"Those goddamn jars," he'd mutter. "Those goddamn loving jars."
