4:07 AM ● this ain't kosher...
WARNING: i'm a heathen, the anti-christ, whatever. if you're an easily offended religious type, this post may not be for you. so i suggest you don't read it. if you're not easily offended, but still a religious type, procede with caution. if you're like me, read on.
i don't know much about religion.
okay, i know nothing about it other than it's the biggest cult in the world and that i don't really believe in any of it.
but when i saw these, religion just got a little cooler. and by cooler, i mean fucking sweet.
i shit you not: the ten plagues finger puppets. i didn't know what the ten plagues were until they came out with these horrific little pieces of fabric gold. i mean, who in their right mind actually makes this stuff and tries to market it for children? ah, hello... dead first born? that's not the least bit traumatizing for kids.
i feel for the jewish.
my favorite is the frightening ginger thing at the bottom... the ginger plague? i'll attend sunday school on easter to understand this better, but as it stands right now, death by ginger sounds like the least of everyone's worries...
A/N: after some hard research on google these are the ten plagues of egypt:
1.
water to blood: god was a vampire?
2.
frogs: i don't get this one. this was egypt... it's hot. frogs fry in hot weather.
3.
gnats/lice: ok this ones gross
4.
flies: from all hot, rotting frog carcasses i'm sure
5.
livestock diseased: valid
6.
boils: another gross one; one quick hurrah for modern medicine
7.
thunder and hail: ooooh scary
8.
locusts: i hear they're very annoying
9.
darkness: uh huh. it's called 'night'
10.
death of the first-born: this is just wrong. first testament be
warped.
so in short, i have no freakin' idea what the wild animal is there for... or the scary ginger child. huh. sunday school it is...
