Some might call the subject of Kent Rogowski’s photography cute, but that’s before Kent has his way with them.  Kent’s photography book, Bears, contains a whole lot of pictures of stuffed teddy bears.  They’re a classic, even iconic, children’s plaything, so what better way to get some shock than to take a teddy bear and turn him inside out?  The results can only be described as pink and fluffy nightmare fuel, as beanbag bellies become distended sacks of entrails, stitches become stars, and eyes become fried-egg nightmares.

While they’re not as overtly disgusting as , these Frankenbears are still pretty disturbing.  They’re like Evil Muppets, or some sort of gross parody of what a teddy bear should be, yet they still manage to be kind of cute in an off-putting way.  Like, if you didn’t do more than glance at them, these would be adorable, then you take a real look and find your stomach turning.

The Red Cross is a wonderful organization.  When there’s trouble, the Red Cross is there setting up shelters and handing out food and water.  The Red Cross is normally very sensitive to the community needs around them, to boot.  However, sometimes, something will slip through the cracks that just looks wrong.  One of these things is […]

One of the most famous features of Matt Groening’s fictional town of Springfield is a strange one.  Springfield is home to a giant, perpetually burning tire fire.  I guess considering the town also has a nuclear plant that routinely leaks glowing green waste into the town’s water supply, the tire fire isn’t such a big […]

Gas prices don’t usually go down.  They go up.  Gas prices rose for decades, sometimes slowly, sometimes quickly, but always up on a long enough timeline.  Not long ago, $4 a gallon for gas was a very real proposition.  Nobody thought prices would go in the other direction, and yet… gas prices are going down […]

Fashion designers look for inspiration everywhere.  Some of it is pop culture, like Friday the 13th-inspired hoodies.  Other fashions are inspired by low culture, like deluxe Snuggies.  Some people turn to the culture of their past for inspiration, like the 8-bit video games they grew up on.  Italian fashion house Moschino is partnering with Nintendo […]
