Billionaire drunk on own power, watched too many movies

[adrotate banner=”1″]With all the talk of violence in movies influencing people lately, has anyone stopped to think what else in movies influence morons? Because we’re learning first hand that the danger is bigger than we think. Especially if the moron is a crazy billionaire.

Australian billionaire Clive Palmer has declared his intention to clone dinosaurs like in Jurassic Park and set up his own dinosaur theme park located at his Palmer Resort in Coolum, Australia. Now, anyone with even a small amount of biotech knowledge knows that cloning dinosaurs is impossible, and Jurassic Park skipped and hopped around steps needed to successfully clone animals (very important steps!) in the interests of writing a dinothriller. But that doesn’t matter when you have billions of dollars to waste. Remember, according to morons, rich people are your betters!

Clive Palmer’s name might be familiar because he was recently in the news announcing he’s building Titanic II, a replica of the Titanic. Titanic II will be designed not to sink, but I think we’ve heard that before… There is no connection to the Asylum movie Titanic II, except to say that they’ve successfully predicted the future. I hope it’s the only time, because I don’t want to live in a future where the Transmorphers come…

I support any and all efforts that cause dumb rich people to waste all their money.

In non-wasting your money news, would you like to buy some Jurassic Park bugs? Well, too late, because they’ve all been sold from Erin Pearce’s Etsy store, but maybe if you jingle enough money you can get yourself a custom job!

You can get them to celebrate Jurassic Park 4 being fast-tracked into development! Sadly, it won’t be that awesome weaponized raptors script…

BloominHappy2009 – Attack of the Etsy!

One fun thing I like to do is browse Etsy for weirdo stuff. And though there are whole sites dedicated to mining the worst of Etsy, I instead will be focusing on stuff I think is pretty cool, even though it will probably be weird. So to start out, here is some cool weird stuff from an Etsy seller named BloominHappy2009:

Air plant in black hippo animal planter
Black Hippo Planter

Air plant in black hippo animal planter. Perfect gift for him. Great decor for your office. Be the envy of all your office colleagues when they see this adorable planter sitting on your desk. This repurposed toy hippo has been primed and hand painted by me in black and sealed for protection. He measures 6″ long x 3.5″ tall.

He comes with the message “Go Against the Flow” around his neck but you can change that. You may want this as a housewarming gift, a college dorm gift, to say thank you, or maybe a get well gift. I can personalize it to say what you want.

Bisque pig doll with air plant
Pig Doll Planter

SALE. Vintage planter. Bisque pig doll with air plant. Unique gift for collector of plants or pigs. I found this very unusual planter at an estate sale and loved the idea of how it would look as an air plant display.

The pig has moving arms and legs and is in very good condition for something that is so old. There is a small chip on the back of the neck which I have shown in the last photo. She comes complete with large eyelashes and measures 11.5″ long by 6″ wide.
