Halloween Hangover, Gnome Edition (OMG IT’S DAY OF THE DEAD!)

Most of us are just waking up now from our Halloween outings, and most of us are still in costumes. There are few more entertaining sights in the world than a bunch of gnomes doing walks of shame in torn and stained costumes.

Here’s just a sampling of what I found on my camera when I woke up this afternoon:

You fill in the blanks.

What’s that, Humps…what? Today is another holiday? It’s the Day of the Dead! OMG why are we not throwing a party yet. Somebody! Get me some skeletons!

Now go flip on that sewing machine, work that creative muscle, and get to work you lazy bum. Tomorrow is the only day you humans can dress up like a gnome and legitimately get away with it. Go…go….GO!!!

Halloween Gnome Sightings

Humans have been decorating their yards with Halloween decorations lately, but that doesn’t mean there’s no room for gnomes.

Check out these yards we’ve scoped out in the neighborhood!

See? Gnomes NEXT TO Halloween decorations. Clearly, this is the best and brightest way to creepify your yard.

So as you’re displaying your finest bloody bones and graveyard horrors, please leave us be. We love Halloween and we want to be part of your demonic decor. Some people think we’re creepy anyway, and at this time of year we accept it.

Muchas gracias!

I had the pleasure of meeting Dirty Bill while I was in Austin, and he was a stand-up kinda dude.

Clearance Gnomes

Perfectly healthy gnomes in the “$10 and under” clearance section? OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAReally Walmart, really? Just because it’s not springtime? We hold value during all seasons of the year, you idiots.

We’d like to hang a price tag above some of your employees’ heads and see how they like it. Hell, I’ll even prop one above you CEO.

Oh. Snap.

I went there.
