Neighbors are having a garage sale featuring crap the dump wouldn't take
I don't GET IT.

Bargain CRAP is still CRAP, isn't it?

And yet, people are swarming in like flies to a fresh doggie donut to inspect the bounty my neighbors have stacked in front of their garage.

Screaming kids everywhere.

CRAP everywhere.

Lots and lots of noise.

It's GARAGE SALE DAY!

:grr:

NOT a photo of the actual garage sale, just a picture of someone ELSE selling THEIR crap:

1. I see a DISCARDED theme amongst those "treasures"
Someone is sick to death of the blue and pink, country carved hearts business in that photo!! That rabbit, or whatever, on the corner of the table looks a bit chagrined, as does the one in the little rocking chair next to the heart-carved wooden shelf!

2. tackily dressed ignorant faux-news watching trash
that's all they are.

Kudos to the garage sale owner for finally dumping all their homeinteriors.com fake country fucking shit.

Sweet mother of God, I hate that shit with a fucking passion.

I like the wooden tulips.

5. Yeah, well...
somebody in this one has a bunch of stuff they weren't able to get rid of at the flea markets.

But, I've found a bunch of things at garage sales that were so gawdawful that they were beautiful in their own perverse way.

There's kitsch, and there's camp.
