Bossini's "Premiu​m Edition Slinky Dog Muffler" is, apparently, a Slinky Dog scarf. I can't make up my mind whether this would look insanely great around someone's neck, or just silly. Or both. Someone find me a pic of it in action, as it were?

TOY STORY Collection by Bossini

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.

The Snowden Principle

    To me, that looks like the outcome of a horrible accident involving a dog and one of those apple peeler / corer widgets.

      I would have gone with dachshund-flavored churro.

      (And thank you very much, spellcheck, for suggesting Dachau-flavored. I wasn’t planning to sleep tonight, anyway.)

    No shots of the scarf in action (which is telling), but Bossini’s facebook page has some pretty cool pictures fromt he rest of the collection.

    At first glance, I thought it was made of bagel.

      A bagel beagle?

    • nosehat

      Yes, I thought this too.  I must be hungry! 

      I wonder if it would even be possible to make a novelty spring-shaped bagel at home with an ordinary kitchen.

    If only Jim Varney had lived to wear this.
