Vote or... Knit?















Now, I do not want this blog to get political, but when I received my weekly Lion Brand weemail and saw the pattern for these guys, I couldn't resist posting them. Your eyes do not deceive you; these are in fact Senator McCain and Senator Obama FINGER PUPPETS. Whip these guys up and hold your own debate!

Lion Brand Yarns says, "These are serious times and we have a serious choice to make, but that doesn't mean we can't have a little fun! Who do yarn lovers choose for president? Tell us who your presidential pick is and we'll publish the results!"

Could your choice at the polls in November have an impact on the price of yarn in the future? Who knew?

Whip these guys

ZOMG SO OFFENSIVE. :P

also, i don't think real-life mccain can lift his arms that high.

Hahaha should have edited myself better; was never my intent to offend! :)

these are hilarious. mccain looks way too happy though. he needs more of a sneer. and maybe a diaper.

ma*, please be sure to make my who dey scarf extra long, so i can hang myself with it after this season is over.

Mary Ann* said...

Hahaha binz, your scarf is looking good... She is about 4 feet long already! Am aiming for 6. Will add fringe, too, in case you need that extra inch or two.

MA* or Michael,
What is ZOMG? Is it possible there is an abbreviation I am NOT familiar with?

Mary Ann* said...

Linds,
Will have to defer to Michael on the literal meaning of ZOMG, but I think of it as an EXTREME OMG, with the Z meaning nothing other than "really, serious, OOOOOOOOOOMG".
At the end of GG last night, saw the "Music from this episode" part, where they showed an album with "OMFGG" emblazoned across it. Was proud of self for immediately knowing it was "Original Music From Gossip Girl" (vol. 1!), and cannot WAIT to purchase.

funny, when i saw that i thought it stood for "OH MY FUCKING GOD". although i didnt know what the second G was for...

and i also dont watch gossip girl.

(sorry to swear on your blog - i felt it was necessary to get my point across)
