Thanks lunavideogames, I was way to lazy to post pics and hoped my smiley face would portray my sarcasm...

Its not just Tiki Farm, its all the artists. They are talented people putting out damn fine products..... and it must be selling or they wouldn't keep doing it.

To quote clark griswald..."you really think it matters Eddie?"..... I mean, so what if they add devils or spaceships, or guitars or hotrods....

Seriously, we are discussing if new mugs offend a Fad from 60 years ago, that basically poked fun at real polynesian gods and mixed in chinese and PNG because it looked cool...they made up random tikis that had no polynesian qualities and mixed in nautical decor. In other words we aren't curing cancer here people, its a mug.... a mug thats slightly outside of a 60 year old box, that was slightly outside of historically correct box....

I personally have very little new stuff in my collection. Most of it I dislike and the few pieces I do like is way too much money or so limited in quantity that its just not practical for me. Thats said, I'm not losing any sleep about a tiki mug wearing sunglasses... its easier to not buy it and look at the stuff I do like.
