We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
I love this.
it made my night.
There is something about it, that makes me laugh and feel curious at the same time.
What on earth made someone put this much effort into an inside joke?
Mr Uvula reminds me of the blue meanies in The Yellow Submarine. The fact the the Uvula has toungue leads me to believe that the Uvula's Mouth has a Uvula which has a toungue in its mouth leading to a Uvula....
this is the type of thinking generated late at night when eating at the Waffle house. Try the smothered hashbrowns with cheese and onions , city ham and Bert Chili with a slice of Pie.
Anybody notice the strong R. Crumb influence?
eems like there was something special about the sugar cubes in his coffe
Surely it's the uvula that does the shutting? Or maybe the person needs antibiotics, if it's that filthy.
Now "shut your filthy vulva"...that would be insulting on many levels.
From the urban dictionary...
Schmear:
1.NYC Deli slang for the act coating a bagel with a small amount of cream cheese.
2. A small amount of any condiment applied to a food item.
3. A medical test for women from New York.
Good Lord! I hope that's not a reference to #3
Good eye Sticky Note, it does look alot like his style.
It is a uvulalin riddle, wrapped in a areolian mystery, inside an vulvan enigma; but perhaps there is a key...
I'm impressed. Seems like very few people know what a uvula is or, more precisely, what it is called.
@Librarian - oh you mean..
UVULA VS. EPIGLOTTIS
The source of much debate between SRD and weetiny today. As it turns out, weetiny takes this round, with the uvula indeed being the thing residing in the rear of your mouth.
UVULA - small, mucosa-covered set of muscles, musculus uvulae, hanging down from the soft palate, near the back of the throat. The word is derived from the diminutive of uva, the Latin word for "grape", due to the uvula's grape-like shape.
EPIGLOTTIS - a thin, lid-like flap of cartilage tissue covered with a mucous membrane, attached to the root of the tongue, that guards the entrance of the glottis, the opening between the vocal cords. It is normally pointed upward, but when swallowing, solids or liquids stimulate sensors which fold down the epiglottis, and prevent food that should go into the esophagus and stomach from passing into the trachea (windpipe). The epiglottis is one of three large cartilaginous structures that make up the larynx (voice box).
I was thinking R. Crumb, too. This is a great drawing!
BUT, then the movie Kung Pao: Enter the Fist popped into my head and that crazy tongue of "The Chosen One."
MMMMMMMMMM! Love those shmears (and it is NOT a small amount from my experience).
But...what the heck? Is the uvula asking for a shmear and someone is telling it to shut up?
I am confused...
omg.. this is SO Waffle House!
@Feeling: maybe I was right and "vulva" would be more apropos, given the "shmear" at the bottom. If a person has a filthy vulva a Pap "shmear" would certainly be in order.
Gross.
Are your tonsils swollen or are you just happy to see me?
I know a chick from Ohio with the nickname Shmear... wouldn't surprise me if it's her!
my friend and i are always saying random phrases are our fictitious band names. i think filthy uvula would be perfect for our fake punk band!
I'm nowhere near the origin of this Find, but some random local graffitti cartoonist draws Sharpie pictures around my town, and they look a LOT like this uvula-head guy. Both R. Crumb inspired? Has anyone seen that Indie film about him? I think it's just titled "CRUMB"
beeeeezarre.
I LOVE that the Finder included the precise TIME of the Find in his little Finder's Blurb. No date or actual location, but at least we know exactly what TIME it was Found. (must have been their first stop after last call at the bar down the street?)
Blip, I think that the fact that it was a Waffle House nails it down to a particular region of the U.S., if not an exact location.
jcrummel, Filthy Uvula and the Crumm Waffles are in the House tonight!
