I was at Akbar's recently, rifling through the new arrivals, when I saw some bizarre things. Here are some of the strange parts I saw:

-hot yargpixie (Hot?? Looked more like scribblings.)
-paintball junk (How can you use it??)
-a "kisses 5 cents" sign (Holy cow. The things people will do...)
-a little red wagon (Aww, how cute.)
-a credit card (Nice. For those who are shopaholics.)
-a dead guy's face (Hate to know how it got through...!)
-a tongue called gay (And it's priced at 90 clams!)
-a bar of soap (If we wanted shower/bath gear, we'd buy this.)
-an "art project" (Looks more like scribbles to me.)
-a nose titled "The nose knows!" (Too punny if you ask me.)
-a turkey beak (Bizarre. No?)
-something that was apparently supposed to be underwear-on-the-head. (Crazy.)
-a bobby pin (That's so old-fashioned!!)
-a shark fin (It's not summer anymore!)
-pajamas (Good for nighttime maybe)
-a part titled devil's got his arm around me (*shudders*)
-a biker boy shirt (Uhh, how is it a "biker" shirt? It's only a red shirt with stripes on the sleeves.)
-a watermelon (???)
-smiley faces (like those in instant messenger chat)
-a Whyville license plate (???)
-and quite a few parts that were just sloppy

Those were only some of the new arrivals!


Editor's Note
: 13thJest also noted a few parts with questionable names, which we're not including here in the Times. If you find a part with an inappropriate name, City Hall has asked that you email city-management@whyville.net to let them know about it. Please be sure it *really* is inappropriate, of course! "I don't like it" is NOT a fair complaint to send to City Hall.
