Wow, I had a great time today. Spring is here! I even wore flip-flops today, and left my jacket at home. I know a lot of you are still suffering under snow and ice… perhaps it’s time for a Turkish vacation, eh?

Well, it wouldn’t be Bazaar Thursday without inappropriate children’s clothes… there was a woman actually considering buying this shirt when I was taking the photo, until I explained to her in Turkish what the third word meant, at which point there was much brow-furrowing.
Yeah, what whatever.
At first I thought this was a suicide note on a t-shirt— “I cannot go on like this” and “I’m sorry.” But then I saw “we just aren’t meant for each other”… it’s a break-up note. I guess you’re supposed to send the shirt to your soon-to-be ex.

This seems a little bit threatening… change of a little only.
This is the front of a pair of thong underwear— first of all, Confucius shouldn’t be saying anything from my groin; secondly, which finger is that, exactly? “You number won” doesn’t particularly bother me, because there are quite a few Confucian sayings that don’t make much sense on the surface. For all I know Confucius may have actually said it.
This is one of those items that’s nonsense no matter how you read it— I guess it’s either “pumpid,” or the car is from the Pumi Police Department.
Ah, Super Magic cotton swabs. You stick it in your ear and a woman’s face appears.
This is just baffling. The bird has a hat on, and running shoes, and a padlock around his waist, and his tail is bound with a pink scarf. Thank cat for that.
A few of you have contacted me with your requests for things at the bazaar that you’d like to buy… I’ve scouted for the appropriate items today, and I’ll be e-mailing you this evening with details, prices, and so forth. If anyone else wants something you’ve seen here or if you’re looking for another item you think I might be able to find at the bazaar, please contact me and I’ll see what I can do.
You should have your own line of turklish clothing to sell at the bazaar. :-p I’m sure you could make a small fortune.

It isn’t just super. It’s Süper.

The last one made me laugh out loud, and then I tried to repress the laughter and it became painful, and then I was laughing at myself for laughing so much. In general, no matter how funny the internet is, I refuse to “lol” on principle. Thanks for the laughs, anyway. I love bazaar day!

I stared at that last one for a long time, thinking there was something I was missing that was going to tie it all together and make it make sense… but no.
