Have you ever started something with the intention of it being sort of nice and elegant and before you know it, you've had a virtual blackout and when you come to, you're covered in cyber-glitter and wondering how the hell you went from gorgeous diamond rings to sparkly toilets?
If you have, I bet Pinterest is to blame.
Yesterday I started a new Pinterest board called "Ooo...shiny!" because I saw a couple of really beautiful diamond rings I wanted to pin. It was all going fine and I was immersed in sparkly gems...and then this happened:

| Because if you're paying $6 for a coffee, you might as well push conspicuous consumption to the limit with a blinged-out coffee cup |
Once I saw this cup, it occured to me there is a whole world of sparkly, glittery shit out there and now I'm on a mission to find it. And I was hella successful

| Unless you live in a nightclub where Andy Warhol is passed out in a corner while Warren Beatty is snorting coke with a model who has eaten one lettuce leaf and a pack of sugar free gum in the last 3 days, I'm really not sure why you'd need disco stairs |
 |
| I'm sorry, but unless a fairy just threw up all over you? There is no excuse for this |
 |
| So that's what happens to dead vampires in Stephanie Meyers world |
 |
| Not only will this keep your beer cold, if you get lost, you can use it to signal aircraft for help |
 |
| The Glitter Shitter for those of us not content to rest our pampered asses on mere porcelain |
 |
| And to go with your diamond-encrusted toilet? Because nothing says "I have money to burn AND I'm a fucking idiot" like shitting $400 worth of gold |

At the university where I used to teach we had a statue of a deer made out of rhinestones that was affectionately called "Glambi."
ReplyDeleteIdk, that's just what this made me think of.
I need to google that!!
DeleteWow. It is amazing the things that exist in this world. Whatever would we do without the internet to show it all to us?? Oh, we'd have more time to do other things. Meh, whatever!
ReplyDeleteWho needs the real world when you can spend 6 hours googling the world's most sparkly toilet? lol
DeleteOh wow, I can't imagine all that glitter!! Certainly a wide assortment you pinned :)
ReplyDeletebetty
It started out as a nice board with beautiful jewelry. Then I found the shiny staircase and sort of lost my mind lol
DeleteOh my god! That toilet is so glittery, that I'd be to scared to poop in it. I'd just take it to a DISCO (see, giving my age away) and dance around it...ooh, unless it was one of those toilets that squirted your butt with water and then dried it with a blast of air...maybe I should shut up now...
ReplyDeleteDammit, you just made me think I should have googled glittery urinals too!!
DeleteI like sparkly, glittery stuff, too, but those last 2 are, uh, are uh...wow. Just wow.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if I should be impressed or freaked out that someone would pay $400 to shit glitter. Maybe a little of both
DeleteFirst of all...I WANT that cup. That is amazeballs! I love the glittery ashes. I would put that in my kitchen next to my voodoo toothpick holder. The glittery butts were just ostentatious IMHO. What show offs. The stairs are rad. Liberace would shit a brick in that glittery toilet if he saw it.
ReplyDeleteI have a friend who is a total starbucks freak...I posted the cup on her fb because it was so her!
DeleteYou have a voodoo toothpick holder??? Is there a pic of it on your blog?? I want to see it!!
The glittery butts annoyed me...what the hell is that supposed to be about??? Oh look at my ass, it sparkles!! Have a shower and put some pants on, for christsakes
