Last week was a stomping FFF in which you laid bare your souls and revealed your deepest darkest fears. They ranged from childrens tv shows to vindictive women with a middle containing bonkers, lateness, pesky unconvincing pipe smokers, the platypus and many more. Many many more. It seems the world is just as scary as we’d imagined and our self imposed social hibernation is justified! Hurrah, pull the curtains Bjarni out there be monsters…
Picking a winner is difficult since you’re all very valid in your own mental malfunctions, we’re no-one to judge. However there was one entry that struck a cord with Bjarni and I (Willem). It was the entry from Sebastian Andersson about Dumbo, Pinocchio and circuses. Bjarni faints at the sight of an elephant, he’s still so traumatised from the movie Dumbo. He fought an unfortunate and rather spectacularly unsuccessful fight to have it reclassified as an 18 rated movie in his youth. Why the lovable elephant with the gargantuan ears frightens him so, he’s not saying but hints something about liquor and hallucinations. Sebastian’s actual fear was Circuses, which resonated with me, since I’m also afraid of them. A travelling band of homeless misfits encouraging children to watch them perform tricks. Don’t even get me started on clowns, who’ve done well out of scaring children and boring’/terrifying adults in equal measure (I’m on the side of terrifying). Or satanic midget circus masters. Bearded ladies. This is not a place to send anyone, let alone impressionable children.
Congratulations Sebastian you win yourself one free Hipstery experience!
In other news, we’ve two promo’s planned for this week. The first will be the launch of the “favourite person, favourite shirt”, an extended FFF contest to coincide with Intl T-shirt Day on the 21st June suggested by Francesca from FFF two weeks ago. More on that tomorrow hopefully.
The second will be a gift voucher price special, offering you yet further incentive to liberate your friends and love ones this international t-shirt day. We’ll announce that at the end of the week.
Update: All clear on the source of Bjarni’s bedwetting, check this out:
