Amy Winehouse Singing Snow Globe Recalled Due to Constant Malfunction
LONDON — - The U.K. Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform and Amy Winehouse’s parents today announced an involuntary recall of one of the worst celebrity-endorsed holiday gifts in history: the singing Amy Winehouse Snow Globe. Despite initial high demand from music fans and celebrities such as Pete Doherty, who was spotted trying to break open a Snow Globe, the product’s constant malfunctions have prompted an onslaught of returns to stores and an immediate recall.
The snow globe has a number of defects. The more snow it inhales, the more magnified they become, including: slurring the words to "White Christmas"; spitting and swearing at onlookers; forgetting its shirt; and failing to perform altogether, even when wound up.
Amy’s parents demand that consumers stop purchasing the recalled product immediately– and are more than happy to talk to any and all media outlets about their "devastation" over the product’s malfunctions.

That is SOOOOO funny, 14! “I’m dreaming of a white christmas” is what we used to sing back in the day … just like you have Amy singing today. Ah memories … and Thomas Kink-ade … the perfect touch!
And I’m so glad to not have to look at Cisco Adler’s balls when I first get to your site.

I just noticed - sorry no coffee yet - “Painter of Blight.”
Perfect. Hilarious. Thanks for starting my morning with a laugh!

Aw, poor Amy. Raging drug addiction makes for such an easy target…

ahaha… you girls are brilliant. I imagine some British lady on the Home Shopping Network, getting all flustered as snow begins to disappear down the nose, and Winehouse spits on the glass.

Sorry to bring it down a notch, but the term we always used for Thomas Kink-Aid’s efforts was FART instead of ART.

Fucking Thomas Kincade man.
Amy Winehouse. In addition to Shitney, Hohan, and Cisco Alder or whatever the fuck his name is, I can’t look at her. I get grossed out.

The ‘Cash Only’ disclaimer is what’s cracking my ass up, big time. That, and the large amount of snow clustering ’round the nostrils. It’s that kind of attention to detail that makes the Kinkade Collection so worthwhile.

I swear this woman is already dead, except that her body’s cells are so cranked up on illicit substances that it remains somewhat animated. She seriously resembles one of the zombies from Dawn of the Dead.
An Amy Winehouse snowglobe would certainly fit well with my Nightmare Before Christmas collection… too bad about the recall

“They tried to make me go to rehab and I said no,no,no.”
In retrospect,the answer should have been yes.
But who really knows the answer?
It’s not like the long term effects of Heroin and Crack cocaine abuse are really known.She’ll probably inject speedballs into her cornea for the next twenty years and end up fine.
Then who’ll be the one’s looking stupid?
That’s right.
All of us.

I love this. BTW I wish the ghost of Bob Ross would plant a happy little tree up Kinkade’s ass.

I really like the Thomas Kincade portrait, his mustache seems askew. Kind of like him.

Keith Richards is the hottest UnDead I have ever seen! *rowr*
You can successfully cycle on and off heroin as a functional addict. There are many many successful professional who use (so Wino just isn’t one of them). As for speed balling, ya no, let’s not go there.
