Mickey-ears skull ring

The Great Frog's Michael Mouse Ring is a sweet chunk of chunky, infringing silver: a skull in Mickey ears.

Previously:

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

@16, what’s not healthy about it?

Does Disney know about this?

Wow, it’s Mickey Mouse (a character for kids) juxtaposed with a SKULL (a totally badass thing that’s great for tats). How revolutionary and original. How about Barney on a bitchin’ Harley? Or Bugs Bunny smoking WEED? Holy shit! I just blew my own mind, along with all of society’s paradigms! Better hope not too many people read these comments, or civilization will start to crumble under the wrath of my genius satire.

That’s some funny shit, but a little weird.

Love the juxtaposition of Disney and evil!

Guitar Dad, you appear to be new here…your sig goes on your profile page, not in your posts. Thanks.

#2 – Actiallt, Disney has been evil for a great many years.

Now, Ghibli and evil would be a juxtaposition.

No. 3 – If you register with this site, I’m assuming you can put your sig wherever you want. Let me know if there’s a rule.

That is the rule: no sig in the comments.

For more info about rules visit the “Moderation policy” link at the top of this page.

No. 3 and No. 6 – do you guys run the site? Just want to know who I’m communicating with. Thx

The thing about the moderation policy page is that it takes such a long time to load, and frequently it simply freezes my screen in this weird double black state. I end up having to turn it off and then restart it. That takes a long time, too, and I’m sure its not good for the overall lifespan of the laptop.

I have to avoid two of the threads that are linked on the homepage. But since you can’t see the subject posters are commenting on anymore, if you click a name you end up going to one of the black hole threads, the computer’s dead, repeat cycle.

It wouldn’t be a bad idea to open up a new moderation thread that was leaner and more up to date, so that newcomers would have a way of quickly scanning the policy and recent comments to get a feel for the boingboing ethos.

Just a friendly suggestion. :)

  We are going to do a new Moderation Policy page with a short, outline-style policy and a more explicit Links Policy.

Its NOT infringement, its fair use –parody.

BB’ers should know better.

This “juxtaposition” has been seen already on many Planet Rouge records, for example:

Terence Fixmer / Douglas McCarthy’s “Between the Devil”

I’m too lazy to did it up, but didn’t a recent post show that the credit card industry has calculated that if you buy a chrome skull you are a bad risk?

:D
