To borrow from a recent Chris B comment on an image of mine, "Very interesting,
but horrible "
He does what he does, as you say, 'scary good'. Not my sort of thing.
I just realized what it reminded me of. I was once looking for a place to stay,
and tried a B'nB. The room we looked at
was entirely filled with really cutesy teddy bears and related decor. I had to
leave quickly to avoid an accident.
DeMint's stuff has some of that quality, only with a bit of "scary, but I can't
look away" added. ;-)
