Give Ur Bathroom Some Love: 2010 Edition

Category: contest

toiletcontest

Whenever things go remotely well for me (and I’m talking winning a free ticket on a scratch off), I panic and wonder what sort of hellstorm is skulking around behind the shanties, waiting to shower me with hot coal, STDs and Jessica Simpson medleys. So my instinct is to do something nice for other people.

And this is where it could benefit YOU. I’m giving away one of my 4″x4″  bathroom plaques ($15 value) to one lucky reader. They’re available in a variety of styles and the choice is all yours. Here are some of the glowing reviews that have been dumping in (oh, see what I did there? DUMPING?):

Jen Shitcan from Missouri has been heard saying, “Shiiit, I was so sick of my bitch ass husband bringing his broads home from the bar and asking me where the can was so they can empty their Diva Cup.  Now they just look for the sign and I don’t gotta be bustin’ caps no more.”

Isaac Outhouse from the wilderness sent a telegram saying, “Sign good. Rust proof.”

Peter Pisser from a place with a large blind population sent a box of chocolates with a note saying, “Works good. Except my one blind friend still needs help finding the commode. Make one in braille, you should.”

Melissa Purell informed in green ink, “My son has a penchant for smearing fecal matter everywhere but the hand wipes I keep on the sink specifically for these occasions. Luckily, the unsavory smudges wipe right off my bathroom marker. The stench, not so much.”

And Alyson from Waltham, MA was so thrilled to have her friends stop crapping in her potted plants that she left this flowery feedback: Thanks so much!! I absolutely love it!! My house plants thank you from the bottom of their rooty hearts. It’s the perfect size, too!

Possibly only one of those are real.

    I have 3, count them T-H-R-E-E pieces of original Erin Kelly artworks hanging in my living room. I think it’s ONLY fair to add one in the bathroom, too!!!

  2. Lauren January 11th, 2010 12:27 pm

    OMG. That comment was so poorly worded. I suck and don’t deserve a plaque.

    OMG, Erin you have such a great way with words. You had me rollin over here!!! So fuckin funny! I love your poop plaques, around here farts and shit are one of the main topics! I also think you could incorporate your serial killer work into these poop plaques :P
