Post-Nuclear War Mutant Salt Shakers, anyone?
Clayton Cramer said that a Thai restaurant was handing them to customers, but he found them “disturbing.”
It’s not the first time this has happened, but once again, I must regretfully disagree with Cramer.
I mean, just look at these!
I think they’re incredibly cool and I want a set! In fact, I almost feel like flying to Boise, Idaho, renting a car and then driving to the Sad Wa Dee Restaurant in Meridian, to beg for a set.
BTW, the Sad Wa Dee has been favorably reviewed and rated four stars.
But the salt and pepper shakers are so beautifully disturbing I’d rate them a five!
UPDATE: Things are more disturbing than I thought. After exhaustively searching the Internet for mutant salt and pepper shakers, and “weird” salt and pepper shakers, I finally stumbled onto the mutants. Only they’re not intended to be mutants; they’re “huggies” — and they’re supposed to be placed together in a syrupy sickly-sweet display of saccharin schmaltziness….
Like this:

Ugh!
Reminds me of the expression “you can’t hug your kid with nuclear mutants.”
Or was that “nuclear mutants are for hugging”?
Maybe Clayton Cramer was right to find them disturbing….
One man’s disturbing mutant is another man’s precious thing of Beauty!

The blue one is a Reagan Democrat. The red is a conservative Republican. The dish being served won’t taste any better with seasoning.
Excellent! They’re both in full meltdown mode too.
