He also did not want me to visit his glitter factory. The jovial Mr. Shetty told me over the phone that people have no idea of the scientific knowledge required to produce glitter, that Glitterex’s glitter-making technology is some of the most advanced in the world, that people don’t believe how complicated it is, that he would not allow me to see glitter being made, that he would not allow me to hear glitter being made, that I could not even be in the same wing of the building as the room in which glitter was being made under any circumstance, that even Glitterex’s clients are not permitted to see their glitter being made
That’s because the sites are portals to R’lyeh and glitter is actually the cum of Cthulhu and his shoggoths

Can you give us some more cool insight from your glitter quarterly trade magazine?
And yes, fr33 gets a little weird when he's not bashing cripples and black people

You should see the whips and chains department.
And you’ve never read Lovecraft?

The only cripple I bash is OwheelO,
And the only black people I denigrate are the same ones I denigrate with whites, violent thug trash.
Don’t be obtuse

nope. I really love to read, but my interest lately is pretty specific to mysteries, crime novels, historical stuff, and the odd romance or vampire novel by JR ward only.

H.P. Lovecraft created the entire C’thulu mythos that’s been used for pulp horror ever since. Came up with the Necronomicon and is responsible for lots of pop culture horror tropes

I do hate to use some words knowing that some people will ignorantly or intentionally misrepresent their use.

Holy shite. Someone used the word "myriad" correctly.

Having two young kids, glitter is absolutely banned in our home after our oldest girl had some glitter projects go bad and it was everywhere for months.

Carpet is awful ... but ever had to get it out of a kid’s hair? Two of mine apparently participated in a “glitter bomb war” at someone else’s house.
I was less than thrilled with that idea when I found out. Got a bit more pissed when I looked at their heads and saw a layer of encrusted glitter about 1/4” thick around every follicle. But I didn’t hit DEFCON-level rage until I’d spent a week scrubbing their little scalps raw with one of those horrible plastic shower brushes and STILL couldn’t get all of it off. It was like it adhered so completely to their skin that it started to bond at the molecular level, and I’m not even kidding. Fully six months later they could turn their heads just right, and the angle of the light would reveal one more sparkly patch that I’d missed. So it wouldn’t surprise me at all to find out that this export from the ninth circle of Hell has some top-secret classification as a military instrument. It’s all shiny and innocuous-looking, but yet tenacious enough to frick some shite up. Also a hell of a lot cheaper than an equivalent biological or chemical weapon.
Even now, several years later, my kids will do something particularly derpy and this little worried voice inside of me whispers, “It’s probably the glitter ....”

Humans, even humans who don’t like glitter, like glitter. We are drawn to shiny things in the same wild way our ancestors were overcome by a compulsion to forage for honey. A theory that has found favor among research psychologists (supported, in part, by a study that monitored babies’ enthusiasm for licking plates with glossy finishes) is that our attraction to sparkle is derived from an innate need to seek out fresh water.
