HBML DIORAMA CONTEST 2!!!!!!!!!
the deadline is september 1st for the second annual HBML shoebox diorama competition. last year ruled, and in an effort to up the ante, this year the winner gets a $200 cash prize. as the gif above clearly states, “no joke”.
as in last year’s competition, the dioramas will be stacked one on top of another in our windows, in a brick wall fashion. bearing this in mind, remember that all dioramas must be in a box the size of a shoebox, they should be side- and not top-view, they must be totally contained within the box (nothing on the sides or top, or jutting out in front, or dripping underneath). heavier entries will be stacked towards the bottom so please try to make them structurally sound. batteries are ok, wall plugs are not. there will be glass between the viewer (on the street) and the diorama (inside, in the window), so nothing interactive in a button-pushing way. also, i cannot be expected to turn things on and off every day. also, really glue everything down solid- if something falls we won’t know how to put it back together- we are idiots.
we will be collecting dioramas from now until september first, which is a serious deadline. in addition to the grand prize, there will be silver and bronze prizes, and lesser (or “booby”) prizes, including famousest entrant and best bribe. if you are shipping us your diorama please realize that we probably can’t ship them back, but we will try to hold them for pickup until well after the competition ends. or you can authorize us to sell them and keep the money.

safe fun!
this is a fun toy for children, handmade for us by the award-winning artist (and HBML volunteer) JJB Buckmaster. limited edition dude…
3 boxes for $5.
in a drawer marked “do not eat”
some of these already say “do not eat” on them, like the various dessicants and the spark plug cleaner. the rest, i figured was better safe than sorry. right?
HUSTLE MODE
a kid: do you have iron maiden t-shirts in kid’s sizes?
me: no, sorry buddy.
kid: oh, when are you getting them in? (NB: this is apropo of nothing)
me: next week. buuuuuuut, they’re weird. it says “iron maiden” in the font, and it has eddie, buuuuuuuuut… uh…
kid: is eddie holding a hatchet dripping with blood?
me: no, he’s like, drinking a milkshake or something.
well, ok, it’s not a milkshake, it’s an ice cream cone, but still that’s pretty good service, right?
by popular demand, and because it’s the end of the month and we have totally no money for rent (really bad), we are selling this t-shirt on the internet. the shirt is white with a black and green design. it is $20 postage paid to the continental US. please paypal the money to: jacob at fujichia dot commmmmmmmmmmmmm. be sure and list size preference: on this one we can do youth small all the way to XXL. the shirts are white, but if you don’t like mint chocolate chip (the tim mcveigh special) we can color in the ice cream orange sherbet.
oh, and we’re also selling t-shirts with this popular image on it:
the image is printed in black and the shirts are like mustard yellow. like the “eddie ice cream” shirts they are also available in sizes from youth small to XXL, and they are also $20 post paid to the conty US. again, just paypal the money to: jacob at fujichia dot calm and we’ll ship them out early next week.
remember to specify which shirt you want and what size(s).
oh, and if you just want to slime us with a donation, now is a really good time to do so, in any amount.
