Curly Pudding

I don't even want to know what's in this jar. 

Curly Howard Pudding?



Curly Sue Pudding?

Jack Palance as Curly in City Slickers Pudding?



Fred "Curly" Neal Pudding?

Wha... Wha... What's with the hair???

In what world, on what planet, in what decade, was this ever considered attractive.  What's with the hair?  This makes me wonder about the whole manufacturing process of an item like this.  First of all, someone initially had to create this.  It looks like a demonic Pez dispenser.  And what's with the hair?  Then somewhere along the line, there were decisions made to manufacture this oddity.  Who approved this?  I find it almost impossible that you could get three people to find this anything less than disturbing, yet it was manufactured.  Not only that, it was sold to someone.  And what's with the hair?

Old Faithful

Old Faithful
These little statuettes from the 70s were all the rage.  I find this one mildly amusing, but what is it really saying?  That ugly people are more faithful than beautiful people?  Are they saying that since the guy is really ugly, he has no real choice but to be faithful?  Are they trying to say that beautiful people cheat more often? 

What's really funny to me is, on what occasion would you give this to someone as a gift?  For your anniversary?  "Hey, sweetie, Happy Anniversary! Thanks for sticking with me for all these years, even though I'm ugly, you're a real trooper!  Oh, by the way, I haven't cheated on you."
