I know right I love that thing. This is why the coloring book is invaluable to me. I'm still trying to think of a dumb name for that thing. So far the frontrunners are "badpipes" and "fragpipes." I think you could kill your commanding officer with that bad boy.

im obsessed with this image from the gf coloring book look at fords fucking sci fi instrument

No

I am a sausageman of some renown as you probably already know if you...nown me? I have sausaged on many (two is many) continents, I’ve had good sausages, bad sausages, sausages I’ve measured against a baby, sausages I’ve accidentally put down on a seat at a cinema, sausages in pubs, bars, food markets, hockey games, on a boat one time and in a made-up place called ‘Prague’ that has a big clock that everyone pretends is real ok everyone it’s real. I once had a sausage from a place that suggested I lick my fingers instead of using a napkin. This is all documented in my previous work I would cite my sources but I literally am my source. 

But I have never. Ever. Ever. Probably. Ever. Come across something as vile. As disgusting. As….vile. As this monstrosity. 

When I emailed myself the photographs that I took of this sausage abomination, I gave the email the subject line ‘Bad Sausage’. That is true, and hopefully it a) gives you an idea of my feelings for this badpipe (not bagpipe that is a side project) and b) gives a thrilling - but safe - insight into how many photographs of sausages I send myself and also c) how proud my parents are. 

These wretched, cylindrical, sweating foultubes were a lockdown emergency sausage situation - we have all had them I have asked everyone - and were very much a case of ‘I’d like these sausages please, John Tesco’, I call him John. At the outset, the auspices were good. There were sausages. That’s the extent of the auspices. 

I got them in the pan - that makes it sound like I had to wrestle them which I did not but I think I did wrestle with my subconscious and sausage-sense which clearly knew trouble lay ahead - and cooked them. That’s the bare minimum, just in case you’re not as experienced as I am. Cook them prior to eating. Although it did not help in this scenario, it may have made them worse, we will surely never know. 

The plan - which turned out to be folly, it was like a sausage Operation Market Garden but it is doubtful the movie about this sausage disaster will have as good a cast as A Bridge Too Far - was to cook - see above - two of these SUPPOSED nicepipes and then have them in a sandwich with a fried egg and some brown sauce, which is uniquely British in that we took the most disgusting colour, made a sauce that colour, then instead of calling it ‘lovely sauce’ or whatever we just stuck with brown sauce. 

Look here is the lovely sauce. 

I won’t show the cooking process, you’ll have to subscribe to my YouTube channel for that except it keeps getting taken down because they think Sausage Man 2000 is some sort of smut and not just a man enjoying meatpipes. 

Here is the finished article, the Hindenburg of sandwiches. The bread and egg are fine and were of lower stakes to begin with, the lovely sauce is wonderful and brown. But the sausages my god. If there is a god. I can’t believe there would be one that would allow these to exist. They were simultaneously horrifically smooth in texture, but also contained what I can only describe as ‘grit’, but it’s unlikely to be grit isn’t it. It’s a bit of animal and I don’t know what bit but if I were to guess I’d say that if animals wore trousers it would be covered most of the time. 

This is to sausages what a terrible sausage is to sausages. Greasy, textureless other than the trouser grit we discussed earlier [SausageQuest, 2020] and an all-round sandwich ruiner. Look at them again. 

What’s the green bit? It’s not herbs! Is it a heretofore unknown part of animal genitalia discovered by John Tesco to befoul this even further? Don’t answer that as this food is now a part of me and I just can’t think about it. If I were to see, say, an elderly person putting these in their trolley I would dive on them like a grenade - the person, not the sausages - and say NO, YOU FOUGHT IN THE ‘PRAGUE’ THING, possibly breaking their hip and my own. 

CURRENT LENGTH - I DON’T COUNT THESE AS SAUSAGES MORE AS SEMI-MYTHICAL TRIALS SENT TO TEST ME SO STILL 638CM

SAUSAGE RATING - 10/10 NO I AM JOKING I AM SUCH A JAPESTER IT’S 0/10

some quotes from this session of the empire campaign

“You need to roll stealth....for rolling a wheel of cheese up a flight of stairs.”

“Those are no longer bagpipes. Those are badpipes.”

“The blinking bitch is back!”

“You slithered up and grabbed a feral teenager and you are surprised she tried to bite you?”

Yup, Queen on the bagpipes....not much better than that in the world....

Leather Utility Kilt Baddie Suit with Vest & Priest Collar

Double Cross Leather Suit

We have dedicated this suit to our friend and Representative, The Badpiper and we now call it, The Baddie! A portion of the sales go to new suits for the Badpiper on his journeys around the world performing in this suit and entertaining everyone as the only leather clad, flame blowing bagpiper!

Adjustable by 5-7 inches, this cowhide leather version of the standard snap utility kilt will live up to your high expectations of quality. Made from high quality leather hides hand picked by the designers. Each utility kilt comes with key latches and D-rings on the 3 inch belt loops, and the front apron is detachable from the body of the kilt. The snaps act as built in sporrans for comfort and security. Optional; inside pockets (as shown) or two large cargo pockets each have two additional smaller pockets that give you plenty of carrying room. This kilt will last for years and will look even better over time like a great leather jacket. The leather vest is lined with a thick weave durable fabric that allows air to circulate between your skin and the leather.

You can request your own family tartan in this design. We purchase our tartans from Lochcarron of Scotland. Some additional charges for the fabric upgrade to wool and shipping will apply. Contact us if you have any questions.

Snap Kilt Interchangeable

This snap utility kilt is the base starting kilt for what is the new standard in utility kilts; interchangeable front aprons and pockets. This design was created by Kilt This! Each kilt is handmade by the actual designers. Start with this kilt and add front aprons to change the look instead of having to purchase several kilts. Durable, made to be worn daily. This kilt comes with 2 large expanding cargo pockets, 3 compartments each to carry most items you need for a hike or an outdoor event. The design allows you to fold it up and slide it into a laptop bag or a backpack for travel. The pleats are sewn on both the inside of the kilt and the outside. This helps maintain the appearance over time and to allow you to fold it up and pack it away. The kilt is custom made to your measurements so it fits like a glove, right out of the box. All the kilts are adjustable by 5-10 inches but we want it to fit right from the start then you can adjust it as needed. Not all kilts are measured the same and not all pants use the same measurements, so it's important to follow our directions when sending us your measurements. Length cannot exceed 24", beyond 24" we refer you to our full length utility kilts.

Ask how to customize

*Some sizes may require an additional cowhide not included in this price.

Adjustable by 5-7 inches and made to fit based on your measurements.

Snaps help keep the kilt adjustable and masculine.

The kilt comes standard with 2 key clips and D rings

3 inch belt loops

2 large cargo pockets; 3 compartments on each side.

How to measure

Waist - Our kilts are made to fit like a pair of cargo shorts. They will adjust approximately 5-7 inches from the waist measurement you provide. You want to measure with a measuring tape around where you normally have pants hang along your hip, and either over your belly or under it, which ever you prefer. Be sure to measure against your skin and not over clothing. If you measure over clothing it will make the kilt too loose and the measurements will be inaccurate. With the proper measurements you will only have to adjust the apron when you first try it on, and only minimal adjustments after that if you gain or lose weight. The great thing about this design is that you can adjust your kilt and it will never look different in appearance. The kilt will always look centered, level and well-fit. Hip - Measuring around the hip area will help keep the kilt from being too snug around your hips, rear, and the Jewels. Length - This measurement is commonly done for utility kilts by kneeling. You want to take the measurement from the side of your hip. Measure from where the top of your jeans would be to the floor. This typically makes the kilt length to about mid knee.

Vest Measurements

Chest - measure around the chest - around the back - under the arms

Length - measure from the back of the neck to the bottom of your spine aka tailbone

Shoulders - measure from end of shoulder to end of the opposite shoulder shoulder

Waist - measure where you want the bottom strap will hold hour vest (usually just above the top of the kilt)

Okay friends.

I’d love to take a crack at this, but I’m a slow writer and am not quick-witted enough, but I know I’ve got a few friends who are.

This fun little thing is happening not too far from me and I think it’s hilarious, and it just screams fanfic to me.

So, anyone up for writing Sam and Dean into these shenanigans?

In case the link doesn’t work, here’s the text...

MANITOWOC - In what some view as a harmless Halloween festival and others as a satanic celebration, the first Windigo Fest will take over the streets of downtown Manitowoc during the first weekend in October.

Jody Dubinsky, owner of Treasures in downtown Manitowoc, said this festival is darker than it seems on the surface. She became concerned when her own research turned up old Native American tales of a creature called the windigo, sometimes spelled wendigo, which eats human beings and devours their souls, particularly young children.

She said she was also concerned about the dates of the festival, Oct. 6-7, adding up to 13, a number associated with evil, and the parade going backward on Eighth Street, an action she said would welcome the devil.

“When it is portrayed as a Halloween festival, my concern is that there will be families with children partaking in these events,” Dubinsky said. “I have nothing against Halloween, but you’re not going to see Superman or little princesses at this festival. You’ll see ghouls and goblins.”

However, Dawn Dabeck, owner of Dead by Dawn Dead and Breakfast and one of the masterminds behind Windigo Fest, said there people will be dressed as princesses and demons, and everything in between.

“It’s just going to be a whole lot of fun, and we … are encouraging people to dress up and come down and have fun and have drinks and eat and be crazy and safe,” Dabeck said. “We are not looking to cause any problems in Manitowoc. I have been doing Halloween for a long time … there is nothing satanic about any of this stuff. It is just pure Halloween fun.”

Dabeck said she uses the windigo figure because it hasn’t been overused or popularized and so makes it easier to brand as a Manitowoc specialty.

“It could have been any figure that wasn’t already overused. … We can brand that and make it Manitowoc’s own,” she said. “‘Manitowoc’ is a Native American word and so is ‘windigo.’ It’s a Great Lakes thing.”

The event includes a costume contest, a blood drive by the Red Cross, parade, pall-bearer relay, horror film contest, “dark arts” display and contest, and musical performances by The Badpiper — a finalist in Australia’s Got Talent — and Road Trip.

Dabeck said the dates for the festival were chosen because it was the first weekend in October and didn’t conflict with any other area events. She said the idea they were chosen because of the correlation to the number 13 is ridiculous, since the festival will land on different dates each successive year.

As for the parade, the only reason it is going the wrong way — starting at Bank First National at 402 N. Eighth St. and ending at the festival grounds on Franklin Street — is so the participants will end up at the festival, Dabeck said.  

“This is not a satanic parade, we are not walking backwards, we are just going the wrong way down the street,” she said.

Dubinsky and several other Manitowoc citizens spoke against the Windigo Fest at the Sept. 19 city council meeting, saying the festival would welcome Satan into the community.

Dubinsky said she and many others have convened for prayer meetings to pray about the festival. She encourages families to do their own research about the festival and make the right decision for their children.

“Don’t come down here unless you know what this festival is about,” she said.

Treasures will be closed for business Oct. 6-7, the days of the festival, in a show of non-support for the community event, Dubinsky said.

Windigo Fest has received widespread support from the community. In addition to the more than 20 sponsors listed on the website, the Windigo Society — a local non-profit focused on improving tourism in Manitowoc — has received a $13,000 Discover Manitowoc grant from the City of Manitowoc Room Tax Commission and a $5,000 Joint Effort Marketing grant from the Wisconsin Department of Tourism.

“We are thrilled to support a creative new event that infuses modern Halloween traditions with regional folk history,” said Tourism Secretary Stephanie Klett in a press release Sept. 28 from the Wisconsin Department of Tourism. “Windigo Fest is a fun way to attract new visitors to Manitowoc and create a positive economic impact for the community.”

Dabeck said she loves Manitowoc and feels tourism is especially important to the downtown area. She said she plans to continue to organize the festival each year and hopes it will grow to be an attraction for visitors to the area.
