So, you may remember me mentioning that I rather enjoy not only colouring but dot-to-dot. The ones made for adults have hundreds of dots to connect and it is so amazingly meditative and a sure fire way to calm my brain down before I sleep.

Normally, that is.

However, this one magazine I bought revealed pictures that were... somewhat unsettling. So much so that I had to take photos to share... I would like to reassure you that these pictures don't look like they do because I made mistakes. Oh no, I did them perfect. THEY ARE JUST FUCKING BIZARRE.


Well this one is a bit weird for sure but not too bad. Possibly some kind of forest fairy? Praying... under uh, some tree branches?




So yeah, doing this one I was like 'lalala oh okay, it's gonna be a lady, look at these drapes in the dress, these are quite cool... hold on, what's forming down here...' It's a man. A tiny, faceless man. You know, there are whole Fetlife groups dedicated to this kink of giant women trampling tiny men but I sure as fuck wasn't expecting to find an illustration of this here...




Ahhh a giant head! A GIANT HEAD. This is not how you perspective, okay.




Okay, so a marching band guy. Fine. BUT WHAT IS THAT THING IN THE BACKGROUND?? IS IT FOLLOWING HIM? WHAT HAPPENS WHEN IT CATCHES UP?



AND WTF IS GOING ON IN HERE? What is this eyeless/faceless demon collecting? Carrots? Spiked souls? Corn? WHAT IS IN THE SACK?




IT'S THE FUCKING ANTI-CHRIST IN A NAPPY HUGGING A HELL HOUND! Whyyyyyyyyyyy?




I assume this is the same anti-christ, now grown past the nappy phase but still looking like the evil incarnate.




Is he... Is that a gun? Is he going to shoot his brains out while the eyeless people at the front are yakking away? Will he shoot them? Is he a hunter about to dispose the freaky faceless monsters?




WTF IS THIS THING? It has a box where its face should be. And once more, I am very concerned about the sack. And that giant shovel. Jesus.



So yes. Let this be a lesson to you all. What may seem like a harmless past time may turn out traumatizing.

I thought these were going to be those erotic join-the-dots adult join-the-dots things and I'm both obscurely disappointed and annoyed by these weird pictures but no longer baffled as I spent this afternoon assaulted by the TERRIBLE DESIGN SINS on all of the merchandise at the Globe Theatre and I understand how many adults in this world wouldn't know what good design was if it fucking dickstomped them.

They sell books of them in the kind of shitty gift shops and tackier sex shops that I am inexplicably drawn to like the cheap gremlin I secretly am.

OH no they didn't have those - the worst part is that, outside of the generic museum shop stuff they clearly think what they have on sale ISN'T a tacky mess at all. It's so. The fonts are awful, for one thing. AWFUL.

If you hadn't just dropped a massive quantity on cat dentistry I'd be inclined to suggest commissioning your favourite fan artists to transform for some of their work into dot-to-dot and printing it out!

Weird, but I suppose you could put some of it down to the exercise being limited to straight lines. Still, very strange.

Holy crap...

Well, this has inspired me to create dot-to-dots because I can do WAY better than these things. ;P

I saw this one in a catalog today: https://www.amazon.com/Lost-Icons-Rock-Dot-Portraits/dp/194202147X
(I'm not THAT good!)

I'm kinda interested. I've always liked dot-to-dots. Actually, what I'd like to find is a maze book like one I used to have when I was a kid. It was a thick book with challenging mazes and many of them formed pictures once you solved them. I thought that was really cool. :)
