\"long<\/a>
\nLong ago in 1976
\nI don’t even know what to do with this. I couldn’t tell if it was a board game in a shoe box, or a board game about shoes. But 1976 was a very fairytale year, wasn’t it?<\/p>\n

\"lion<\/a>
\nLion Bank
\nI’ve gotten close to buying this on two occasions now. The lion has so much personality, I can almost hear his lisp. I think if I see this again, I’m gonna buy it.<\/p>\n

\"faux<\/a>
\nFaux marble table
\nI’m pretty sure it was made entirely out of plastic and then coated in resin. It was… amazing<\/p>\n

\"gone<\/a>
\nGone with the wind plates
\nRemember when it was cool to collect hand painted commemorative bla bla bla porcelain things out of ads in household magazines? Neither do I.<\/p>\n

\"crazy<\/a>
\nTrying to imagine what would motivate someone to buy this. Would they think it was beautiful? Or… I don’t even know. I can’t imagine.<\/p>\n

\"budha<\/a>
\nIt’s a Buddha holding a kitten? Or a Buddhist monk holding a hedgehog? Kinda hard to tell.<\/p>\n

\"happy<\/a>
\nHappy sad clown with coin belt. For when you want to embrace your depression. I think the word party spelled out on the balloons makes this piece so depressing I want to shoot myself in the head just looking at it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
