Do an image search of "running bloody nipple" on Google and you will see that similar problems affect other sports too.

I might have liked it more if I wasn't the victim. Here's a fun hint for everybody.

Never, and I mean NEVER climb a squeeze chimney topless. I don't care how hot it is that day, or how "easy" you expect the route to be. It's just not worth the risk of... A nipple incident.

If I were to make a movie with that scene I would show you just about to fall and then cut to some one cutting a stick of pepperoni with one of those deli meat slicers. haha. Also my girlfriend is working on the drawing for the dj unicorn.
Hahahahaha, oh man the deli meat slicer! Dude, that is hilarious (and pretty accurate). Tell her I say thanks for the drawing ^.^

Surprisingly enough I am not suddenly filled with the desire to google that.

I think that chalk bag is fucking awesome. If someone was looking for a new chalkbag I don't see why they wouldn't consider one of these if they were avalible.

The biggest issues I could see with selling them would be cost. It looks like a lot of work went into making your chalkbag. You could charge a little more than what commercially available chalkbags cost, but most people won’t spend more than $5-10 dollars more I'd guess. Hard to say if all her work would be worth it.

Im glad you like it. she sells a lot of crocheted things. scarves, hats, toys, etc. she usually doesnt charge much for her time.

but thanks! I will be sure to tell her. It will make her day that you like it.

Sorry for the Necro, but... Sign me up for a Vinyl Scratch too!!! I've been neglecting buying a new chalk bag, but I'll snap up a Vinyl Scratch Chalkbag in a heartbeat!

...yes, I did make an account just for this post. But looking around, I think I'll stay for a while.

THANK YOU for necro posting. I got all caught up in exams and stuff that I forgot I was meant to be sending him some sketches for his GF to work off of.

I missed this the first time around. While I don't know that I'd buy one for myself, but it's pretty awesome. I could see a lot of kids going for this, and my wife likes distinctive chalk bags.

Sure, the thing is going to get a little dirty and it's not going to be as durable. Having something this unique will be a worthwhile trade-off for some folks. I'd love to see what else your girlfriend comes up with.

Well, when the sketches are done, send a copy my way! I think I'd prefer to have her glasses on, but if it's easier to just clone Sungam's chalk bag, that's fine.

Making a sleek/thin character like this into a big bulky chalk bag could be challenging, I'm excited to see what the sketches look like!

Glasses on? That's cool, as long as you admit they are red Tongue

Haha, I do agree theyre red, but not such a bright red. My personal favorite headcanon is that she's blind, so I picture red with a slightly unfocused or glazed look. I like that headcanon cause of a really touching fanfic I read about her and Ziggy Stardust (I think that's his name).

Anyhow! Let's take this to PM if we wanna keep talkin about this, not clog up the thread.
