Sup TDS.

Hi winky.

I know a guy who knows a little bit about making chainmail. But I cannot mention his name or he is guaranteed to show up here. Maybe even in this very thread. *ominous background music*

It's made to be generally inexplicable. However, the background of its creation is explicable:

I was browsing a site which features many artists from around the world, and found a particularly barmy one whom I started showing off to DeusJester. The first image was of a topless woman whose nipples had been replaced with gaping mouths. I seem to recall that she was also blue. He said, "Please tell me that's a car advertisement." We both appreciate associating bizarre things to unrelated things in very casual ways. The kinds of things that make you think what the hell? presented so casually as to make you hesitate once or twice before bringing yourself to actually ask what the hell? Every time I linked a what the hell? image, he'd associate it to some casual product. When I sent the image in question, the two girls with flies on their faces and a black-and-white female butcher at the bottom for no apparent reason, he said: "Cotton: The fabric of our lives."

When the time came to find or make a sig banner worthy of coordinating with the BUT BUT BUT meatgrinder image, there was only one true and righteous choice to be made.

That was going to be the first thing I linked to, but I honestly can't find the link anymore. Quite worried that I didn't save a bookmark to it, despite really liking the place.

That really does transcend into something awesome. How does he do it? Punch holes in the neck of the spoons and then link them with smaller loops?

That would look staggering as sporkmail, but sporks are wildly expensive.
