David pointed out that Hallmark doesn’t exactly make a card to suit his current needs. So I figured I’d make one for him.
The front of the card:
Isn’t that an idyllic scene to go with the warm sentiment David hopes to express? I borrowed it from a photo he shot in P-town. I love Barbies! I can almost hear the splash of the water. I can feel the summer sun beaming down on a scene of friendship and acceptance.
Only…THEN I looked at the full-sized photo, hoping to absorb more of the joy and joyness. And just as was the case with a certain coffee mug, all is not what it appears.
Someone’s on the drainpipe mailbox post looming over the happy group. Is the SWAT team dropping in to take out this coastal branch of Davidians?
Although I’m pretty sure Mr. Spock is in the photo, too. Is it a new Star Trek movie? Is this a group of beautiful but sinister aliens who’ve abducted Captain James T. Kirk?
Or is the movie The P-Town Chainsaw Massacre? Because when I took a closer look at the bottom–no, I’m NOT talking about a specific Ken–the bottom of the PHOTO–in the middle, the Barbie next to the white rock? There’s a severed arm resting on her shoulder!
Yeah. A little eerie. I guess it really is the perfect card for David to send to his friends, since this is what he needed it to say on the inside:
Because when I took a closer look at the bottom–no, I’m NOT talking about a specific Ken
I just spit juice out all over myself at that!! LOLOL
hahahahah OMG that’s hilarious, and I totally had to stop eating or I would CHOKE. hahaha Then we could say that David did succeed in killing one of his LJ friends…
I love the Barbie up on the rock in her prom attire, lording over everyone else.
I figured if anyone would appreciate this photo, you would. Do you and Alan still get your Barbies together for your own version of Peyton Place?
Sadly, it’s been too long since we’ve had a night with the girls.
You’ve got some eye, Becky. I didn’t notice any of that, before. : )
I’m a Barbie girl.
Also, the mermaid on top right is TOPLESS and the Ken to her right is completely lacking clothing on his lower parts. Judging from the looks of it he has been dating “Lorena” Barbie.
this seemingly idyllic picture is actually quite twisted isn’t it.
Someone’s on the drainpipe looming over the happy group.
That’s actually the mailbox post, which has a bunch of Kens and GI Joes dangling from it. Could be they’re trying to escape the carnage, but I’m betting they just like hanging out together.
Oh, I’m SURE they like hanging out together–after all, Joe has a kung-fu grip–but I still don’t buy that they’re not about to blow that happy scene apart.
I’ll edit my post, however, so that we know that the U.S. mail is also involved–that’s not just any SWAT team, it’s the Feds!
