No, this isn’t an April Fool’s joke.
Mistress MJ’s clown painting
The monstrosity pictured above really does belong to Mistress MJ and what’s worse, it actually hangs on the wall for all to see.
Now that I’ve confessed to a lapse in good taste, feel free to submit your décor disasters to our How Not To Decorate Competition.
Thanks to everyone who's sent photos in already!
DEADLINE: Friday!

Well, that's one way to keep the party guests from spending the night!
ReplyDeleteWho can sleep with the clowns staring at them?
I'm not entirely sure what that clown in the back is doing, but it sure is putting a smile on that front clown's face!
Eeeek
ReplyDeleteIts Frobisher
I have so much that would qualify I don't know where to start!
ReplyDeleteMy only question is why? WHY? Would you hang that atrocity.
ReplyDeletePete stole my question.
ReplyDeleteSx
suddenly, i don't feel as badly about my submission, sugar! xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteOne day, one century, someone will make a clown painting that isn't crushingly depressing.
ReplyDeleteOr designed to terrify small children.
But only when otherwise intelligent, good people stop hanging monstrosities like this on their walls.
Of course, if the wall behind the painting is:
* Lime Green
* Dung Brown, or
* Brick Effect
...that might explain something.
Is that to protect The Mistress' "front entrance?"
ReplyDeleteThe clown on the right looks like he's got plague buboes.
ReplyDeletewhy, i could build a life around that painting!
ReplyDeletethat's HIDEOUS. I hope YOU didn't paint it.

ReplyDeleteA rather intimate version of the conga danced around the ring by the clowns at the Cirque du Soleil show in Las Vegas. The artist has really captured that special moment when the clown behind is giving the clown in front a cream pie. It's really quite moving.
ReplyDeleteOh, gods! Must we have our eyes tortured by that thing again?
ReplyDeleteI'd hoped you'd got rid of it after the last time you displayed that taste-bypass to us unwary Bloggers.
only them butt-ugly clowns could get kabuki out 2 days in a row! what what. I apologize for running words together. My netbook spacekey sticks when i get excited. I thinkit is maple syrup. Oh wait, kabuki don't got no maple syrup. must be jelly. how embarrassing. for someone. pirate furniture pics on way. kisses to you - mostly - but to them others as well. exceptxl, just hugs - he's a little creepy. or was that beast? frobisher? iVD? my word - the men circle you like vultures. Don't turn your back on them.

Exactly. It’s for guests who overstay their welcome.
When showing guests the oubliette fails, Mistress MJ opens the door to the room with the clown painting.
BEAST: Eeeek
Its Frobisher
As usual, his wig is in need of a good shampoo and styling.
LULU: I have so much that would qualify I don't know where to start!
Twirl yourself around, arm straight out ahead of you.
Wherever you stop, (assuming it’s not flat on your back), whatever your finger is pointed at, THAT’s what you photograph.
CYBERPOOF: My only question is why? WHY? Would you hang that atrocity.
As Eroswings said, “that’s one way to keep the party guests from spending the night”.
SCARLET: Pete stole my question.
For someone who claims to be ill, he is certainly on top of things.
SAVANNAH: suddenly, i don't feel as badly about my submission, sugar!
ReplyDeleteYou’re lucky I didn’t enter the clown painting in the contest!

It is especially handy when friends say they can’t get a babysitter and show up to visit with their children in tow.
Infomaniac is not a child-friendly household.
Thankfully, most of her friends are childless.
XL: Is that to protect The Mistress' "front entrance?"
Mistress MJ’s “front entrance” can take care of itself, thank you very much.
And I thought we had an arrangement not to mention that again.
LEAH: The clown on the right looks like he's got plague buboes.
Ha! I’ll never be able to look at it again without thinking buboes.
NORMADESMOND: why, i could build a life around that painting!
But you’d have to clone yourself to keep up with the fun.
Send in the clones!
HEFF: that's HIDEOUS. I hope YOU didn't paint it.
ReplyDeleteCertainly not.
Mistress MJ found it in someone else’s cast-offs.
Another man’s poison and all that.
MITZI: A rather intimate version of the conga danced around the ring by the clowns at the Cirque du Soleil show in Las Vegas. The artist has really captured that special moment when the clown behind is giving the clown in front a cream pie. It's really quite moving.
Do you know how hard it is to remove cream or custard from a neck ruff?
IVD: Oh, gods! Must we have our eyes tortured by that thing again?
I'd hoped you'd got rid of it after the last time you displayed that taste-bypass to us unwary Bloggers.
There are loads of new bitches here who hadn’t seen it already.
And I was hoping the old-timers like you were either too drunk or too stoned during the first showing to remember.
KABUKI: only them butt-ugly clowns could get kabuki out 2 days in a row! what what. I apologize for running words together. My netbook spacekey sticks when i get excited. I thinkit is maple syrup. Oh wait, kabuki don't got no maple syrup. must be jelly. how embarrassing. for someone. pirate furniture pics on way. kisses to you - mostly - but to them others as well. exceptxl, just hugs - he's a little creepy. or was that beast? frobisher? iVD? my word - the men circle you like vultures.

Mistress MJ can send you genuine maple syrup from Canada. And a tuque.
Your space key needs a good lube job.
Mistress MJ adores the Men of Infomaniac. It’s high time we updated the list and added kabuki zero.
*makes note in margin to do a new Men of Infomaniac post in future…perhaps a year after the last one*
Kiss kiss.
I've been working on a special project, but have something to send.
ReplyDeleteI'm finding this contest somewhat challenging as I'm generally surrounded by beauty and refinement.

ReplyDelete*waits*
MICHAEL GUY: I'm finding this contest somewhat challenging as I'm generally surrounded by beauty and refinement.
The two people I don’t expect to have a single tasteless object in their households are you and TJB.
I will seriously faint if either one of you submits something.
*gasps in horror*
ReplyDelete"The men of Infomaniac".
Does this mean that I seriously have to photogtaph my "Alluring Arse"....
You already have a pic of my "Fabulous Face" and I can assure you Dear Mistress that it is not much of an improvement to "Back There"...
Although, it could be an enlightening experience for me, as I have never really taken a good look!
Once again you have inspired my creativity and self loathing.
Thankyou...
*oh the unbearable horror of it all, tippy toing off to locate the Royal Photographer*
*note to self... no lighting, frosted lens, find most attractive angle, possibly obtuse...*
I, too, have quite a tasteful pad. But I do have one very apropos piece that will neither surprise nor shock and given to me as a gift.

Submitting a photo of your alluring arse is a requirement of all new Infomaniac men.
I can’t believe I let you slip through the cracks.
The cracks…geddit? Ha!
LA DIVA CUCINA: I, too, have quite a tasteful pad. But I do have one very apropos piece that will neither surprise nor shock and given to me as a gift.
Thanks for your submission!
I’m hearing “It was given to me as a gift” quite a lot.
