I wandered into a ceramics shop on an air base and go, "This place is for us? Really?" Hung around for a season and made a pest of myself but stayed out of trouble or got into it there and all these people were coming in pouring nativity sets. There was a choice of two types. A smaller more detailed set and a larger less detailed set. Some covered them the fired pieces with real gold. It's a paint with particles suspended in it that melts over clear glaze to an even covering. I didn't know anything about nativity sets but they seemed cool to me so I opted for the larger set because it had MORE! Then painted the detail which I considered myself good at. Because it's more INTERESTING than plain gold. I wasn't good at it. At all. Half the eyes are blue dots. It looks ridiculous with all it's camels, cows and sheep and blue dot eyed people. And leave it to my mum to put that stupid thing out, set up the whole thing across a whole freak'n window sill, every single year like it's a legitimate thing. Upon close inspection you go, what poor little retard did this? And that retard is me. Yearly proof of my ineptitude.
That regretsy site is funny. My favorite one is the comments to the hand holding the yin/yang pendant.

Funny but blasphemous. The Prophet shall not be mocked.
Meanwhile, at Pearly Gates Trailer Park...
And here I thought Etsy was some hip hop entertainer.
"The future does not belong to those who slander the Son of ... "
Oh, never mind.
What a friend we have in cheeses...

I take it back, my favorite part is the butthurt tab.
Camembert witness, for cheeses is the whey.
