Joker ski-mask is menacing and geeky

The Joker ski-mask is a hell of a thing -- full of all the scary mojo of the iconic character and the implicit creepiness of going about with your face in this state. Menacing and geeky at once, like a flail made of giant polyhedral dice.

    pretty freaky looking, if I saw him out in public i’d probably have to deliver an asswhoopin.

    Say what? What exactly about seeing this in public justifies physical violence? I’d be giving a head nod with a respect stance, personally, but that’s what I do when I see anyone rocking an unsual style that I dig.

    Or maybe you are just referring to the fact that this could dethrone the Nixon mask as ‘official stylish robbery garment’ … ?

    There’s some pretty cool options for Joker beanies on amazon ATM, actually. My favorite is “Why I Like Knives”. I like the idea of Joker signing his name in graf stylings.

    Just don’t walk into a bank wearing that.

    @1,

    Why so serious?

    Sorry, couldn’t resist.

    This thing is making me laugh uncontrollably and creeping me out at the same time- I keep zooming in on the pic and bursting out laughing!

    I keep thinking, wow, it would be really fun to wear this and pop up from behind something with REALLY wide eyes to scare someone. Great find!
