King of Tacky


Here we have this monstrosity of a souvenir from Florida, sent in from one of our faithful readers. She received it as a gift from one of her students. An adult student, that is. Thankfully there is a sign telling us exactly what it is, so we are not mistaking it for something else. Because it looks like so many other things. That alligator perched up there looks 1. extremely bored and 2. severely depressed as I would be too if I had to be a part of this thing.

This is a CLASSIC truly hideous gift. Anything with shells qualifies, as far as I'm concerned.

I agree, manipulated shells qualify everything as tacky, even jewellery.

Even the alligator looks embarrassed to be there among the shells.
