Shark Attack!

The same artist that does the "involuntary collaborations" also took this picture on a thrifting adventure.

Poor sharkey...

Involuntary Collaborations

Friends,

Have I got a post for you...

This artist buys paintings from thrift stores and adds to them-upcycling by adding monsters. I LOVE these!

I would call this one "Mediterranean Mud Monster"
Not hungry anymore...

Hilarious and creepy, at the same time.

Thrift stores: Amazing places for costumes!

Here, we have another great find from the same Redditor that brought us the penguin mug.

Halloween is fast approaching and thrift stores can really carry some gems when it comes to kitting (or kilting?) yourself out.

This Redditor really has an eye for great thrift!

This dress is something any Ren Faire enthusiast would be jealous of. How much would you pay for this beautiful piece? Would you believe the price tag was 5 bucks?

Social penguins

Let me lay some internet education on ya:

Have you heard of memes? A lot of people I talk to apparently haven't heard of them. Reddit is rife with them. There's a set of penguin memes (socially awkward, socially awesome, fed up) and this next thrift find was entitled "My socially awkward thrift store purchase."
Special thanks to Redditor
RubberDogTurds for allowing us to
bask in the glory of her penguin mug. 

I thought it was mildly interesting. (Sometimes redditors joke about how Reddit has a "sub" for everything.

Narwhal Swayze

I've been a big fan of Reddit for the last few months and I've found a lot of the next submissions there. This one is kinda hilarious and a great buy! I would have spent 2 bucks on that!

When I saw this "play set," I kind of thought of this scene:

Now I've had...the time of my life
Or, maybe this scene:


And, just for good measure, when I was trying to find those scenes, I stumbled upon this:

"Nobody puts Iron Man in a corner."
 There's also a video. You're welcome.
