"Frog Applause reminds one of learning to read, in the sense that each word in the captions seems 'surprising' and new. Teresa's writing takes one back to that fresh state of mind (typical of, but of course not limited to, childhood) in which the brain, free of preconceptions, doesn't 'fill in' any blind spots along the way but rather wholly embraces the present moment as it unfolds. Every sentence is literally an imagination-expanding adventure." — Craig Conley, author of One-Letter Words: A Dictionary (HarperCollins)

first thought.. ha ha… second thought, could there really be? quick google and surprise… there are lotz (such as)
Euro3Plast Baddy Garden Gnome
What it is: A glow-in-the-dark, vaguely phallic lawn ornament that looks either like a postmodern representation of a garden gnome or a baby squid.
What it says: I want every teenager for a 15-mile radius to know where you live and to steal things from your lawn.

TruckDriverFritz, love the garden gnome, and it’s only $340 US. Think I’ll buy 10 of them….

No! No! That’s “phthalic”. They’re plastic ornaments!

Blue Raven’s haiku for the new win! (With an assist by Ottod.)
(Usually only seven syllables in the second line, Blue Raven; but it’s not a hard-and-fast rule in English haiku.)

sandboil, If you think flamingos are phallic, that would probably explain all the trips to the emergency room!
