I DIE, RESURRECT, DIE AGAIN -*DRDA STATUS THANK U. This Hello Kitty HOUSE OF MY DREAMS is actually a townhouse hotel in Hsinchu, Taiwan!

Years ago I heard about the Hello Kitty S&M love hotel in Japan which is apparently now closed. Nooo! Luckily, there are now other Hello Kitty-themed hotels where you (and I) can feed our fetish for the mouthless kitty with the big red bow (but you’ll have to bring your own bondage.) Aside from the townhouse, there is a hotel in Taiwan that features a Hello Kitty suite. And in Taipei, a restaurant called Hello Kitty Sweets serves desserts and other food. It’s obvious where I want to go on vacation. LET DEW DIS.

Thank you to my boo HENA who KNOWS. Townhouse Pics via joanneteh_32.

And being a lover of all that is creepy, I’ve always wanted a Monster Squad-like club so I decided to make one myself! Welcome to The Awesome Cryptozoology Club! The contributors are several of my favorite ladies who love the strange stuff too. It’s still a bit under construction but there’s already quite a few posts to check out. If you are into weird shit, go on’ and give it a lil lurk….

Have a great weekend putanas and putanos!

My dear friend Lenora Claire has a new web series on World of Wonder called doNUTS! Please check it out below… I’m sure many of you have had similar experiences late at night, after da club…that Shaman you saw eating a bear claw and humming “Tiny Bubbles” probably wasn’t a drunk dream after all.

On doNUTS, host Lenora Claire encounters the freaky, fun weirdos who hang out at 24-hour donut shops all over LA. In this first installment, Lenora visits Tang’s Donuts in Silverlake, where she crosses paths with pervy late-night chess players and Silverlake’s local celeb — The Five Dollar Guy! Plus, Lenora offers her own savvy tip on how to ward off handsy drunk dudes…

If Lenora looks familiar to you especially lately, you might have seen her gorgeous face plastered all over NYC or in the latest issue of Vanity Fair. She’s part of USA Network’s Character Project and was shot by Marla Rutherford. You can see her here!

Did you see the pink dolphin?! It’s like Strawberry Quik!

I wanna make earrings outta this lil guy…

Wouldn’t this katydid be even cuter with a white tuxedo and top hat?

I wish all animals were pink. I’ve always wanted a pink poodle AND if spiders were pink I would probably let one go outside instead of smashing them with my chancla.

Someone had a few tricks up his wizard sleeve when he came up with this NES belt buckle. Boys, (or even ladies, shoot) if you take me on a date and wear one of these with the Goonies 2 game aka the only video game I have ever completed in my entire life, you will have me full attention at your crotch in no time.

Ps. How many dirty jokes can be born out of this blog post? Answer: 13.

Even though Halloween is long gone, I still love me some spooky mysteriousness every day of the year. Did you ever see this guy’s Halloween in the Time of Cholera photoset? I keep thinking about this picture in particular. The girls are supposed to be BlueBeard’s Wives. I am obsessed with it!

Man, even the bitches back then come up with some warped costumes. Hello ladies! I think I like it because it reminds me of this hair-pulling fetish site (Should be SFW but maybe too weird for work, TWFW?…and totally eighties for your pleasure) my friend Crystal showed me years ago but it burns a strong flame in my memories…you’ll see why.

I collect old photos but have never been lucky enough to find any like these creepy Halloween ones! So jealous. UGH LOOK HOW AMAZING THIS IS:

Hello cryptid lovers! MEETING IN SESSION. Okay kids, I am a big nerd for cryptozoology of every kind: legendary creatures, undiscovered oceanic animals…I love them all, especially the furry little lobster of 2006. Where is my garlic butter?

Anyway, I find it an amusing coincidence that lately the news has been filled with strange creature sightings week after week. I have also noticed in the recent few years there seems to be more reports of giant squid and other large oceanic animal sightings. This sort of thing personally freaks me out because of a certain apocalyptic giant octopus dream I had in 1998, which some of you know I am obsessed with. MAWR! Back to recent events, sadly, the “Montauk Monster” was fake, but what about its creepy comrades that have been making waves across computer screens in the past week?

This video of the Chupacabra sighting in Texas shows what looks like a dog running from the camera. When it turns its head to the left, you can make out what seems to be a long snout. CHUPACABRA? Or just a mangy mutt?

And then there’s the Bigfoot that a couple of dudes in Georgia found. Supposedly they have this homeboy kicking it in a freezer waiting for an autopsy. I don’t know about all that. Bigfoot is like the Holy Grail in Cryptozoology. It’s probably someone’s old Harry and the Hendersons Halloweeners costume. Aww.

And of course we have to ask, why does it seem that more and more people are obsessing over mythical creature sightings moreso than ever before? Were these things actually always there and the somewhat sudden major interest in them is only highlighted because of our expedited access to information? Or is it just that in these modern times we want escapism more than ever to help us deal with all of the lame shit going on in the world? F U gas prices, let’s go ride a unicorn!

Am I trying to get too deep for a Friday? Let us go back to talking about boners and shoes.

Your hot cup of nerd stew,

I still cannot believe this. I received the above postcard this past May from my brother, who had mailed it when he was in Cambodia….a year prior. You can see how he mentions my ‘forthcoming trip to China,’ which I took in May… of 2007. A year later the postcard comes to my house! Talk about being fashionably late. You so crazy Cambodia!

Has anyone else had strange experiences with other foreign postal services?

There were a couple of things I would constantly sneak off to look at in the back room patio when I was a kid. The first was a chocolate lollipop titty my mom kept in the mini-fridge for seven years. It was sloppily half-wrapped in foil due to my frequent showings to friends during family parties. We would giggle at the chocolate tit until one year there was a mysterious bite in it.

The second thing I would always look at was a hardcover book of Hans Christian Andersen fairy tales, particularly the story of The Red Shoes. If you are not familiar with the story, it is about a poor little girl who wore a pair of fancy red shoes to church, which was scandalous to do so. During mass all she did was think about her sexy red shoes. Gawd then got pissed off and made those red shoes become all voodoo Riverdance. The shoes wouldn’t come off and she breakdanced all over the village until she couldn’t take it anymore and begged an executioner to chop off her feet with a big axe.

This story is so twisted, I do not even know why my eight-year old ass would read it all the time. Did you guys know I was REALLY shy during that age? Anyway, it obviously gave me a red shoe obsession because I have acquired about ten pairs over the years.

Red is one of my favorite colors and I wear it on my lips and clothes, collect red handbags, sleep underneath a red comforter and write on a red desk, but red shoes specifically remind me of being a kid and reading that book all the time.

Does anybody else have some crazy nostalgic-fueled obsession with a clothing item? Please don’t tell me I’m the only one!

This will conclude my Bingo Card making for awhile. Why didn’t you tell me Photoshop makes time fly even faster? Luckily Lost was a repeat tonight…

On a side note, I want to start dating Asian guys now because of America’s Best Dance Crew. Jabba Wockeez and the boys from Kaba Modern are sending my ladyboner through the roof. Asian guys who can dance like that HIT ME UP.
