Once sunny spring day and college friend and I were driving down a side road when we came upon a ‘T’ intersection. Ahead of us were two dogs running, barking and chasing each other through the yard. I didn’t think anything of it until I glanced down the road to look for traffic, then back towards the dogs. Just as I looked back, one mounted the other and they were doin’ the dirty right there!
We couldn’t contain the laughter. Tears were streaming down our faces as we watched these two dogs get it on.
I don’t know what it is, but animals doing The Deed always make me break out in hysterics.
Kinda like these two little horny toads.
(Okay, so they’re not toads. But damn. That was funny!)
This carving of Tree Frogs shows them in amplexus, a pseudocopulation where the female frog lays eggs while the male releases sperm over them.
It’s a biology lesson to sit on your side table on beside the television. Explain that one to the children.
(Um. Obviously this person is incredibly smart or is very talented with a thesaurus because I think I woulda just called it two tree frogs – Is Sexy Time!)
And really? The only thing that makes this even better is that it’s SOLD! Someone bought it and whoever that person is? I heart so bad even though I am mildly creeped out.
Thanks Mom-O-Matic for sending this one!

They’re playing leap frog! Just a leap frog game where you do it first, unstick yourself, and jump over.

Hahaha, unstick. Sounds so gross.

This looks really familiar… not the item itself, but the carving style and the description. This sounds like the sort of person I probably have marked as a fav somewhere.
But I’m equally awful to having factoids in descriptions of my weirder art. And the stuff I swear is so weird is never going to sell… that’s what sells.
Sold items are a goldmine of weird.

HA! In the building where I work, we have this honkin’ huge terrarium with at least seven box turtles in there. All the turtles like to hide under the plants and stuff, so everyone looks for them when they walk by. One day I was standing by the terrarium when one of the security guards — who is this guy in his 70s — walked up and asked me where the turtles were. I looked down, and two turtles were right there in the front corner, right up against the glass, TOTALLY having teh sex. I was like, “What’s that over there! I think I saw one!” and ran for it.

I’m so disappointed it’s sold. I would love to have this on my desk.

Sadly I think what bothers me most is the surprised look on the bottom frogs face.
