Yeah... there's a reason that store was going out of business... it was basically the same Swedish Modernist IKEA crap, only more expensive. I wouldn't pay $360 for a regular wooden bench with REAL holes in it, much less "holes," which may have been put in to appeal to the ironic indie-rocker crowd.
"No, dude, those aren't holes. They're 'holes.' Let's put the Decembrists on. They're so 'rad.'"
Please send your submissions via email to bethanykeeley (at) gmail.com. I look at them all, but it might take a while to get to yours -- sorry! I love you all, but I only have so much energy in a day.
If you want your picture to make the blog DO NOT @tweet them, or leave them in a comment. I need them all in the same place. Make sure your emails are easily distinguishable from spam or viruses (I use gmail web interface, so images get previews).
I don't usually post the following: newspaper headlines, personal email, craigslist postings, unprofessional websites. I also tend to not crosspost things from other blogs, since I have so much unique material waiting for me to get to it.
Things I see a lot: silica gel "do not eat"; hair dryer labels; inside the bus "do not drill"; Wal-mart sign about IDs; coffee machine with "2" cup sizes; employees must "wash hands"; that failblog post.

I'm curoius has to who would buy a bench with holes in the first place, let alone "holes". And the bench WAS $360?! I'm assuming those are LA prices?
(revised and modified. I need to proofread.)
