The game of time and wasted space
Every one and a while I run into something that I used to own. In the early 1980s I loved Doctor Who (read here for just how much) and would buy anything with it's logo on it. There really wasn't much to be had so I bought this game, despite the fact that I had no desire or inclination to actually play it. Yep, I bought it for the box, just like I owned 100 or so Who paperbacks, 3 of which I had bothered to read.
I really don't miss any of that stuff but this is a pretty box isn't it?

Sure fire ways to decrease foot traffic
Don't want pesky customers bothering your booth? Do what this fine vendor did and put up a @#%king Nazi flag. During my two hour trip to this flea market, I never saw a customer grace his booth and I watched.
I'm sure that this fellow is nothing more than a military collector/dealer but what if he isn't? That's the thought that likely went through everybody's head that day. These pictures were taken from a distance because of that and my underlying cowardice, I don't like getting hit.

Not ruling the planet....
It seems Toys R Us and Wal-Mart utilized a simple plan when clearing out unsold (translation : almost all) merchandise from Tim Burton's best forgotten reimagining of Planet of the Apes, they simply sent it to every flea market, toy show and antique mall I visit. The girl (I'm too bitter to look up and see her name) was only sold in Canada, absolutely nobody cares....

Scary Pig 2
Great, it has a mate, that means the species will continue. Has somebody, somewhere, freaking bought one of these things in a non ironic sense?

Jar Jar in hiding
Dean sent me this cool pic of a Jar Jar trying to camouflage himself in front of a much cooler and desirable Star Wars toy.

Home Decor Made Easy
The Tiger picture moves when you walked by it. I mean, talk about added fricking value!
And the Pig? Well, he'll be visiting me daily in my nightmares.

Not enough Purell in the world...
Let me paint a picture, I collect department store catalogs and I don't see them often in the wild. So when I saw an old Canadian Tire catalog on the top of this box I instinctively shoved both my hands in.
That's when I discovered that the box was 99% crusty ol' second hand pornography. Did I mention I've got a germ thing? I set my hands on fire. Who the f*ck buys old jackrags in broad day light at a flea market?

How close are we to a defibrillator?
I can't even pretend to be disgusted, I'd eat a deep fried moonpie if a drifter gave it to me...

Send in your Jar Jar sightings
One thing that's littering this great flea market nation of ours is the piles and piles of unsold Jar Jar Binks merchandise, truly we shall never see an end to Gungan sightings at toy shows, flea markets and garage sales in our lifetime. So, we might as well have fun with it, send me your Jar Jar in the wild shots, mesa wants them.

Looks like we're not welcome here Mr Slither!
If it's on the sign, that likely means it's been a problem in the past.
