Where can I buy the t-shirt?

eclecticbrotha May 27, 2010 at 5:30 pm

I’d hit that.

All. Time. Wonkette. Classic.

THIS IS GENIUS

Bristol, waiting for her next Levi?

qwerty42 May 27, 2010 at 5:35 pm

Geeze, Ken, where did you find it?

MOG May 27, 2010 at 5:37 pm

Clearly her best side.

qaf May 27, 2010 at 5:38 pm

Shouldn’t the picture of Levi have its face scratched out?

rocktonsammy May 27, 2010 at 5:40 pm

The only thing missing is Piper holding angel Trig’s hand while staring at the hole in the fence and freedom.

SWEET FREEDOM!

I was hoping you might share some of your ripple?

comicbookguy May 27, 2010 at 5:46 pm

What happens when Putin rears his head over that fence?

sati demise May 27, 2010 at 5:47 pm

ah, the all seeing eye of the chastity belt.

genius!

Oldskool May 27, 2010 at 5:52 pm

Very artistic. I like how the moose seems to be laughing.

iolanthe May 27, 2010 at 5:54 pm

The little pink chastity belt is just adorable. When I was her age, my Dad surely would have bought me one!

As it was, Dad gave me a stout length of pipe (literally … he was an amateur plumber … but … Freudian much?) to keep under my bed, for the inevitable day when the evil black Watts Rioters drove the 25 miles over the hill, to trash Reseda. North Hollywood, and Van Nuys!!

I was supposed to keep this pipe handy, tucked under my pillow, so I could cosh the invading randy blackamoors he expected to come pouring, in droves, through my virginal 2nd-story bedroom window.

I wish I was kidding.

RoscoePColtraine May 27, 2010 at 5:58 pm

[re=586970]iolanthe[/re]: You were supposed to use the stout length of pipe to ward off the other stout lengths of pipe?

iolanthe May 27, 2010 at 6:06 pm

[re=586972]RoscoePColtraine[/re]: Apparently. Ah, it was a simpler time then. Simpler-minded anyway.

That key looks long enough to claim her virginity already.

joe2 May 27, 2010 at 6:24 pm

sarah palin probably doesn’t even know who charles bukowski is. i don’t get why he is the main thing in her window. because he’s an alcoholic? that’s one of the few things you can’t criticize sarah palin for

Extemporanus May 27, 2010 at 6:25 pm

The cover for Sarah Palin’s upcoming book America by Heart doesn’t look half-bad.

(Wonkette, you so totally rule the skool forever with that desecration up there!)

Baby who ate the Dingo May 27, 2010 at 6:26 pm

Apostrophe: Nanook of the North and his screed “Watch out where the Palins go and don’t you eat that yellow snow”

Jim89048 May 27, 2010 at 6:26 pm

Pretty nice hams for such a young’n.

the problem child May 27, 2010 at 6:28 pm

Beautiful. And I bet Andrew Sullivan is impressed, too.

geminisunmars May 27, 2010 at 6:33 pm

[re=586990]joe2[/re]: Bukowski just represents all filthy writers who move in next door – fictional or non or otherwise.

You all are focused on the the drunk writer and the chastity belt, but it is the moose with a shit-eating grin that nearly blew my cover at the office.

[re=587006]Mad Farmer Manifest[/re]: this puts a whole new spin on NSFW. a diet-coke-through-the-nose, spewing coffee on the keyboard, donkey-honking laugher, gagging on the burrito kind of NSFW. wonkette has emulated the cosmic phenomenon of a singularity, a paradigm-shifting moment in the field of political blogging.

chascates May 27, 2010 at 6:50 pm

I’ll start the bidding at $25 for a T-shirt of that.

[re=587003]engulfedinflames[/re]: do you mean the “Piper’s world”?

RoscoePColtraine May 27, 2010 at 6:52 pm

What’s that in the drunk’s hand? Not the bottle, retards….the other hand!

Sharkey May 27, 2010 at 7:05 pm

[re=587015]geminisunmars[/re]: Yes, I think.

Nice job. Now if we can only get a picture of Trig as the Lindbergh baby.

vilca May 27, 2010 at 7:46 pm

[re=587017]RoscoePColtraine[/re]: A French Freedom Fries replying : that is the mike he tore off before leaving the litterary program Apostrophe. The host Bernard Pivot, almost in tears, was begging him to leave. I believe that Bukowski’s act got people usually tuned into Lost or our French equivalent of Fox to go explore a litterary program. They did and were eventually rewarded with another beautifully drunken display by Serge Gainsbour

Enslave the Whales May 27, 2010 at 7:48 pm

I have no worthwhile comment, but I must acknowledge transcendent visual and symbolic snark.

thanks for picking up this story, it’s a doozy fer sure!

[re=587017]RoscoePColtraine[/re]: I was thinking it was a wired connection to a heavy duty dildo/vibrator. That would attract Sara over to his house.

102415 May 27, 2010 at 8:27 pm

[re=586970]iolanthe[/re]: OMG as we once exclaimed in Woodland Hills I totally married someone from Reseda that one time right out of high school. My ex ex ex father in law must have known your Dad. He once told me that the only thing he ever thought when he saw a black man and a white woman walking down the street together was that they must be having sex, needless to say…

102415 May 27, 2010 at 8:49 pm

[re=586990]joe2[/re]: Well maybe it was the fact that the house was previously an Outward house for people who needed help staying clean or maybe it refers to the fact that now three of her kids have a history of substance abuse and criminal behavior. Piper just helped to trash an empty house to the tune of twenty or thirty thousand dollars while at a drunken break in party so it is said in Wasilla.
One of my favorite Dali’s but a most excellent improvment. I will buy a copy on a handbag. Point me in the right direction.

Late period Bukowski.

What Fresh Hell is This? May 28, 2010 at 8:40 am

[re=587145]Hemp Dogbane[/re]: Oui. He made several appearances on Apostrophes. This may be the one where he was so stumbling drunk and ready to barf that he had to leave the stage. Bernard Pivot and the other panelists continued to wave their Gauloises and talk over one another. It was very French.

zhubajie May 28, 2010 at 9:10 am

Baby who ate the Dingo May 28, 2010 at 10:04 am

Focus on the Family has issued a press release saying that the chastity belt is actually an anti-homosexual belt, which works like a regular chastity belt, but is worn on the, ahem, proctology side. Because precreatin’ in the name of Jeebus is ok, but gristly “BP”s are just wrong. Unless you really are BP, then all the butt plugs in the world are ok.

Senile Agitation May 28, 2010 at 10:20 am

A truly wonderful image, thanks Ken.

iolanthe May 28, 2010 at 10:35 am

[re=587057]Bearbloke[/re]: Eventually, yes.

Judging from other comments, I am a bit surprised (and delighted!) at the disproportionately high number of Valley Girls & Boys who’ve ended up here on Wonkette.

The Valley has also produced a shocking number of celebrated Groupies throughout the years. Must be a function of the ease of hitchhiking over Laurel Canyon to Sunset Boulevard.

There must be something about growing up in Southern Cali’s Postwar Worker’s Paradise that produces world-class cynics and sluts. I’m proud to be both.
