International Googly Eye Day

monster • Feb 28, 2016 7:14 pm
I am starting a campaign for International Googly Eye Day to be celebrated on April 6. Spread the word. It would be appropriate to send cards and amusing token gifts with googly eyes, and also to eye-bomb the shit out of everything. As the holiday catches on, I expect edible googly eyes to become a thing and there will be cake. Eyebombing will become a competitive, with points for creativity, element of surprise, humo(u)r and sheer aesthetic pleasure.


Googly Eye pasties (stripper not Cornish) might be a step too far?)

Not a stretch to add googly eyes.

Check out that monkey!

Yesterday, Int'l Googly Eye Day, the monkey on the Cellar header had googly eyes.
Gravdigr • Apr 7, 2016 3:25 pm

Eyebombed so many things today. notably trashcan in doctor's room and cooker hood
monster • May 25, 2017 10:03 pm
(beest has been in the kitchen since the latter but haven't heard any exclamations of googlyeyeness......)

Here's a whole choir in desperate need of Googly eyes.

Never under any circumstances allow monster in your book store...

Hey! My eyes are down here!
Gravdigr • Aug 22, 2018 1:11 pm
I would say thank you, but, that really should have been a gif.

Also: "boobly eyes" for the win.

Book Covers of Famous Novels Improved With Googly Eyes

I cannot tell you how many people have shared an image of an eye-bombed classical book with a library reprimand on my facebook wall this week. Well I can but I won't. It's a lot. I AM INNOCENT! Whilst almost nothing is sacred to me, books are pretty close to that..... I do not write in them. ever. I do not fold the corners down to mark a page. I only occasionally leave them open facedown at the page I am on if it's a junk fiction novel that I own. (i.e. a Jilly Cooper bonkbuster)

If you think Gritty is bad, you should see what they rejected...

Monster, is that you?

hmmmmmmm... didn't think about the tree............ New Angel Time? ..was contemplating the irreverent idea of putting beest on the top of the tree this year. ....just a face pic on the "angel", not the box of ashes, that weighs a fucking ton.... but I'm not even sure how to suggest it to the sprogs, let alone how banana lady will take it. Maybe an angel with googly eyes is a good compromise

Not only that, it rhymes.

It sings.
sexobon • Dec 7, 2018 10:12 pm
Like an angel.
monster • Dec 8, 2018 12:15 am
and has wings

...like an Always Ultra....

no?
sexobon • Dec 8, 2018 8:45 am
Make a bold statement. Put an Always Ultra with googly eyes on top of your Christmas tree!
monster • Dec 8, 2018 12:59 pm
it might get stigmata... :eek:
sexobon • Dec 8, 2018 1:44 pm
That would contrast nicely with the color of the tree and make everyone feel all Christmassy. Just try to avoid bloodshot googly eyes.
Gravdigr • Dec 8, 2018 3:56 pm
Yeah, I was gonna say red + green = Christmas!!!
sexobon • Dec 8, 2018 4:46 pm
Unless you're red-green color blind, then it's just another day.
Gravdigr • Dec 8, 2018 4:59 pm
Nope. It's still Christmas, just not as colorful.
Gravdigr • Dec 8, 2018 4:59 pm
Choir menstruals singing.

Had to be done.
sexobon • Dec 8, 2018 5:02 pm
Yeah, I was gonna say that.

Googly eyes make the airplane mask girl look like Snow White.
BigV • Jan 9, 2019 4:07 pm
I had the same first impression, but I attributed it to the primary colors and the short dark hair.
