Jesus was all about the bling rhinestones. The BeDazzler is Jesus’s way of saying he loves us.
In my mind, heavy modifies metal in that sentence. It’s a heavy metal belt buckle. I can totally see Rob Halford wearing this. Rock on!
That’s the proof that Leonardo da Vinci was a really genius ahead of his time : he had already predicted what the belt buckles of the 21st century would look like.
I know the “ow, my eyes” tag is usually used for terrible walls of text, but it may be appropriate here. Even more frightning to me is that since it doesn’t say “one of a kind” I have this worry that there are whole armies of these atrocities banding together in Texas somwhere getting ready to strike.
The “Ow, my eyes!” tag actually started in reaction to some really ugly furniture, so it’s more than appropriate here. I’ve added it in. I also added in the “no accounting for taste” tag.
I live in Texas and, sadly enough, I have seen this belt buckle at a mall stand that sells a variety of bling to “accessorize yoself”.
OMG I WANT THAT
You’re all crazy, that’s amazing.
Want it? I have it! Jealous? 😉
(OK, I can’t even post this without the “J/K” for fear people might think I actually have it. Even though nobody knows who I actually am….)
I agree. That belt is bad ass. I really want it.
I’m a little poor for 20 bucks, but still…
I bet it would make a fortune from hipsters wearing it “ironically”.
I clicked on “adore” un-ironically for that.
How’d you know I have this belt buckle?
**sips his spice-infused PBR/Drano cocktail and eats a cheese-doodle; winks at both Dave and the Ferret.**
Hur-hur.
Okay I must have missed something. Why does Mr. Winkey have a laser beam eye?
Because he wasn’t creepy enough before.
Sadly, Mr. Winkey has acquired an addiction to fictional drugs.
When wilt Thou save the buckle?
O God of fashion, when?
The buckle, Lord, the buckle,
That bling for Southern men.
Oh shiny buckle on my waist
All your diamonds made of paste
Look what Jeebus Chis is eating here
It’s some pizza and a beer
Wearing spurs and cowboy hats
The Apostles have belly fat
For the he last supper this may not pass
See? Paul is sitting by Johnny Cash
Why is it that everyone is sitting on the same side of the buckle?
So they don’t get stuck in the belly button?
Obviously because they were posing for the picture!
Betcha didn’t know that the fourth wise guy gave the gift of Kodak.
Does it know The Sentinel by Judas Priest? Or Iron Maiden’s The Number of The beast?
This is a BELT BUCKLE…
And it’s depicting the Last Supper which takes up an entire upper wall of a room.
Either it’s too large to hold up your pants or it’s too small to show any detail unless you stick your face in the wearer’s crotch. So tell me, what’s the point?
Also, WJWT?
I think most men would object to people looking at their crotch and saying, “I thought it would be bigger.”
I think you’ve discovered the point on your own. Just make sure you avoid HIS little point.
“Yeah, that’s right, darlin’, you can’t dine at the Last Supper, but I can give you a little appetizer…”
Oh. My. Lanta. I had completely forgotten about this one.
WHHHYYYY??
There has been an increas in “cowboy congregations” and “cowboy churches” of late. These generally put great stock in informality, and lay reading/leading. They can be invigorating for being “common sense” “common folk” type services–although how long the novelty can sustain would be a question.
Ecclesiastical complications aside, this would be an excellent accessory for either preacher or for attendee. For that matter, it might be just the ticket for the passed plate, too.
But, I shall now return to far more mundane contemplations of the Divine. Like how we’ve had a warm spell, upper seventies, which is to end Tuesday with highs in the 40’s and a two to three day hard freeze laid on (all of which are perfectly normal for this time of year, and will likely raise a beautiful crop of wild flowers in 6-8 weeks).
That, and the Lunar new year celebrations to come. The Year of a Not.A.Lion ends on Wednesday, and The Year of the Rabbit begins (bunnies for HHNF, woohoo!). Forecast for Wednesday is 39º and 19º–will be a chilly trip to the chinese buffet.
“Cowboy church” isn’t just a style of service, it’s an actual sect of Christianity. They’re quite regressive and reactionary, too.
Regressive and reactionary cowboy church sounds to me like a bunch of grown men putting on their old lone ranger and Davy Crockett costumes and looking for injuns.
Imagine that. lol.
For those who want to look devout *and* stylish.
No more of those shapeless habits, just put this snazzy number on, and everyone will know you’re holier than they are.
And now I have a Nunsense earworm. Thanks. 🙂
Oh, giving you an earworm of something I don’t even know. That’s extra credit, right?
Please excuse the camera work. The sound is good, though.
Because Jesus was all about the bling.
This is the real reason he was crucified…
This is what the Jesus Head was missing – the gratuitous use of rhinestones.
This is awesome! I should buy this, then let’s see someone try and pants me. You wouldn’t dare pants Jesus. You’d get the swirlie of your life!
This kind of tasteless “religious bling” is all over shopping malls in Anchorage, AK. I had no idea why they’re being sold, because I never see people actually buy them. Along with shiny, rhinestone-studded belt buckles, there are also holographic images of the Virgin Mary and light-up rosaries.
Insert joke about the Palin family here.
Sarah Palin can see St. Basil in her toast.
OK, try this one on:
Q: Why would you fire Jeffrey Dahmer out of a cannon?
A: To see if he’s canniballistic, of course.
The girl (She’s 43.) I am talking to on Facebook didn’t get it.
Run, Smedley. Do not continue talking to her. She is of Sparky’s Seed!
Yeah… She’s Velcro’s caretaker. And she is coming to L.A. in a couple of weeks to “discuss” a “more permanent” “solution” to “the puppy’s housing needs”. And, “incidentally”, it “must be so lonely in that big old apartment”. And, “You haven’t said if there’s a new love interest for you”.
Hmmm… Astro, look away!
***Whispers***
Smedley is getting a booty call.
Or am I getting the dog back?
Well, best of luck either way.
Yeah, whichever bitch you end up with. Er, I mean, whichever. Oh, you know. 8)
Banner ad today seems to show a stack of belts. None of them have blingy buckles, however. Not interested.
Mine said “Dark Chocolate,” but then it showed a picture of a watchband made of chunky wood beads. Lame!
Hmmm… I believe I need me some dark chocolate.
I’m bored…. entertaaaaiiiin meeee! 😀
In unrelated news, the last week or so, when I go to type a comment, the text from my previous comment is in the typing box. Has anyone else had that problem?
EB, watch me spin all these plates on these sticks! Da-da-da-da-da–$#*&@##! Well, watch me sweep up all this broken crockery. Sheesh.
As to text in the box from pervious comment, no, that only happens when I forget I had already started a comment somewhere else, was checking a fact, then tried to answer a different comment. Or I get told I have to enter my info, but it’s already in there, just not registering. Or, I don’t know, other times but not just when nothing has gone wrong.
Sockpuppet123, Punchity Punch Punch!
G’Night, Mt. Zion!
Just now noticed Sparkie’s selling price.
Wants either $20 in cash or $20 (in) pickup.
I’ve seen a $20 pickup truck, just not recently.
I’m told there are person of “negotiable affection” who only charge $20.
The cabs in my town generally charge $20 to go from any one point to another in the two-city area.
Wonder which sort of pickup Spark’ means (but not for long; I’ve pelnty else to wonder about).
How could Jesus not be honored to rest above the crotch of such a classy dude?
