For me, all the pictures say "Image not found."

Same here. Thing must be really cursed if it can somehow censor images of itself. Truly terrifying.

Fixed it. The system seems wonky today.

Don’t worry—Sassy feels the same way. Had a MedVet emergency last night. Pretty angry with my partner. She’s improving, though. Poor little girl has been through a lot in the past 24 hours.

Hope she's okay. Sending get well wishes to sassy ❤

Kerri Rickard's avatar

She’s improving! My partner— his accidental death is imminent.

I found it. Is it mine?

Karie Anne's avatar

So sorry Kerri.... thinking of you

What would happen if I combined this with The Eye of Cheops? Would I gain supernatural powers or would I explode?

It would be like having all the five rings.

Brandan's avatar

Five rings? What five rings? Five of the rings made by Sauron?

Rachel Shubin's avatar

It must be those ones. The other option is the Five Golden Rings in the Twelve Days of Christmas song, and those are much less threatening (now six geese a-laying, those are scary!).

Good luck to whoever wins this Stag Swag.

Not me suddenly digging online for symbolism of the stag...

Is it best to add the headlines to this post or the February one? I’m excited to see the other entries!

Chuck Palahniuk's avatar

The February one.

Still says "image not found" so this is clearly too cursed for mortal eyes. Guess that means I need to employ maximum effort with my submission to lay eyes upon it.

Check again. Your heart might be too pure to see the occult.

I'm pretty sure I'm a witch, and I can't see the image either. It must be too much for mere mortals to gaze upon. Of course, now that expectations are at fevour pitch, there's bound to be disappointment if the image does appear.

Here's a work-around. Due to the Substack glitch your email likely didn't have the graphics. But if you click the link below it should take you to the site, where the graphics are in place. Fingers crossed.

Thank you, that worked! I wasn't expecting such a statement piece, how magnificent, perfect with a little black dress or black Tshirt. 😁🌟

Chuck Palahniuk's avatar

Depending on your build, it can be worn as a medieval kind of belt.

Caz Hart's avatar

A multi-purpose prize, and one the entire family can use! 😁

Emily Slaney's avatar

Very cool. (Where do you find these things? 😁)

When Harry Potter & Co need a fix, they pawn this stuff. I get it from the broker.

Joe G's avatar

Hah! I see what you did there. You grabbed that deer pun by the antlers.

Benjamin Allen's avatar

Did the stag just blink, or it is just me?

"But be careful, the dangerous power of the necklace is too much for most mortals to control!" I see, Sir. That's why only Cheap, Crass, Devil-worshipers should be trusted with such a necklace. May I humbly nominate myself to receive the gift!? Giving it to me is only responsible solution to this situation you've created for yourself.

Chuck Palahniuk's avatar

You must win it. It's a sword-in-the-stone situation.

Cheap & Crass's avatar

*Grins* Good morning Mr. Palahniuk.

I think you have to wear it to activate the Necronomicon. Could trigger an out break of liches riding on a pack of zombie deer.
