I bet Dyson came up with a more efficient model.
I bet Billy Mays would hawk a cheaper version. And it would come with a free year’s supply of fish if you call RIGHT NOW!
Bedroom, Sweet; can sleep wid’ d’ fishes!

You beat me to it.
It’s simply a case of uploading the wrong photo. That’s plainly not an Ethan Allen bedroom set; it looks more like Pottery Barn.
I think Ethan and Allen were the names of Sparky’s guppies.
You can see where they left the door open on their way out in the bottom picture.
Perfect…simply perfect. I can view the weasel-tossing from my bubbly clam decoration.
Hehe…you said “from my bubbly clam*”…..
*IF’s Hole disco cover band.
How exactly does one decorate one’s bubbly clam?
I’ll join you in the corner, mudsy.
I think it’s beyond decorating. What I’ve heard is that one must just embrace it.
Duh. You bedazzle it.
The treasure chest plays a continuous loop of “Dancing Queen” too. The overall effect is quite nice.
The bubbly clam is playing “Dancing Queef”. Overall effect: not as nice.
Hello, corner.
“Bubbling Clams”?
Is that some muzak/soft-rock Violent Femmes cover band?
(Obligatory reference to Pig from Pearls Before Swine: “Stop the Violins! Stop the Violins!”)
Oh my….the horror. The mental images. The laughter. Good times, good times.
I’m just getting “the horror” aspect from this. When this clam is bubbly, don’t come a-, well, anything.
I got quite a few mental images. Horrible, terrible, hilarious mental images. Thanks for that, I’m sure my day was incomplete without those thoughts.
We’re helpers!
Well he’s right about one thing: It definitely is glass covered on top.
I am missing the metal pulls, though. Unless that is another euphemism. It’s hard to keep up with what the kids are calling things these days.
That’s so they can’t hear you.

Also: not.maple, actually pine.

Oooh, but it’s naughty pine!
It’s perfect for funky, then.
No thanks, I prefer hardwood.

Shhhhhhh! Don’t tell my mollies and platys about this, or there’ll be no living with them until I replace their plastic trees and sunken treasure chests with a weasel-tossing room and chester drawers.
Wait, does this come in a

you’ll never go brine [shrimp]!
Good to know I’m not the only one who enjoys a bubbling treasure chest and overly large piece of driftwood in my bedroom.
Len Tukwila, I presume?
I had a glowing volcano and a set of tiki heads, but I had to move them to make room for more bookshelves.
I miss being able to do the Ring of Fire every night.
I am jealous of your decorating style.
We had a snapping alligator in our fishtank. The jaw hinged so that it blew bubbles and then snapped shut.
That is from the Ethan Allenone line. The Swiss army knife version of a bedroom set.
Oh, how the mighty have fallen. So sad to see Troy McClure unloading his worldly possessions on Craigslist.
Hello, I’m Sparky McClure. You may remember me from such posts as “Bronze Lady Table” and “Bee Truck”.
I prefer to refer to that as the “Bronze LAY-dee Table.” She was fine, wasn’t she?
It was pron in furniture form. Except for that sock.
You have to wonder what became of her. And her jar of Vaseline.
The sock was for “quiet sock time”. It’s what the kids did before “quiet t-shirt time” came around.
The box spring and mattress don’t look very comfortable. But I would like to have a water bed again.
The box spring sprung a leak. All that’s left is box.
The picture is just the glass-covered writing desk, with room for a raven. Or a weasel. Very like a whale.
Iguana place for a monitor and mouse, however.
Ok, just why Spark’ put a glass top on both mattress and box spring, or fenestrated the mirror, probably pale before the more important question of:
“Dark Maple what?”
Leaves? Bark? Sapwood? The more tan members of the Toronto hockey club?
Is anyone else wondering if this Sparky was SO sparky he couldn’t even just put a wrong word in for how many sides it has? Instead had to babble about how it’s bedroom furniture for humans when it’s clearly furniture for sea creatures? Or lake creatures, wherever one prefers to acquire their aquatic pets.
It could be that Spark’s name is Larry, and he hangs around lounges bothering iguana or fringed dragons, and the photo is of his swingin’ pad, er, terrarium . . .
Or that Spark’s roommate, Bob the boa constrictor has left his bedroom suite, hence the lack of other photos (hard to edit your CL ad while hiding on the top shelf of the closet).
I hate to be “that guy,” but…that’s a fish tank, right? Am I seeing it correctly?
And, no, I have nothing funny to say. I’m here to read what you all say.
I had nothing either. Ghostie and the Funky bunch are the hysterically funny ones. I am content to be the straight man (girl).
Well, at least I’m not alone in in the unfunny department. Makes me feel less foolish.
I don’t even think a genie pig would like that as a bedroom.
CJ, Thanks for setting up the new, er, bedroom furniture in the box. Not sure why it has so many bubbly clams, but it looks. . . nice. Punchity Punch Punch!
Good Morning, Toronto Hockey Club!
