Curse you, Archie McPhee!

--Today's Post is brought to you by the word AWESOME.--

Legends speak of a place that holds such large amounts of awesome that no mere mortal could handle it. You could call it a well of power, a place unlike any other. And it is in Seattle.


Archie McPhee's is a store like no other. For someone like me, it is the most fantastic place on the planet. It is a small store located near Seattle. Despite its small size, it sticks out like a sore thumb.

Yeah. That's what the exterior looks like. Horse woman not included. In this picture, you can see all the most iconic things from Archie McPhee's. On the wall you can see Mr. Bacon, the hand picked rubber chicken sign.

If you look in the grass, you can see the Wallingford beast, which is one scary mother licker if you ask me.

So, you're probably wondering what kind of things are sold at this fine establishment. To put it simply, they are random shit vendors.
I got all of these images by pressing the random product button on McPhee.com, Archie McPhee's online store. And that's not even the weird stuff. They have an entire line of animal mask, including the horse mask that has become rather famous recently.

Yeah. They have a whole mask store. All the weird animal masks are shown above, but there are a few more that are interesting. And awesome. The whole store is awesome, and the fact that everything they sell is available online is pretty awesome. The whole thing is awesome. Awesome.

But if they're so awesome then why is the title cursing them? S'cause they're super freaking expensive, which is something that I am not thoroughly impressed by.
But I'll forgive them. For now. Their awesomeness overpowers the suckitude of their high prices.

Moving back to the store itself, it is in Seattle. I don't live in Seattle. But, I can still visit the store any time I want to thanks to a little feature that they have. In google earth, you can actually walk in to the store and move around inside it using streetview. Which is pretty cool. You can check that out here. It's worth taking a look just to see the interior of the store. It's super awesome.
