When I was a rebellious teenager living at home, the walls of my bedroom were plastered wall to wall, floor to ceiling with posters and photos torn from magazine pages of all of my favorite Rock Stars. I was defined as a person by the music I loved and the Rockers I worshipped, and I wanted everyone who entered my room to know it. Loud and proud! I imagine that kids today feel a similar need for self-expression, but, of course, the hyper-vigilance of marketing companies and the ubiquity of social media, propelled by the overwhelming deluge of pop culture stars, images and brands, makes the practice of tacking a Rock Star pin-up to a wall seem almost quaint and old-fashioned.

For fans of the fantastic Showtime series Dexter, a box of blood slides is instantly recognizable as the personal collection of souvenirs that Dexter keeps from each kill. The surprise behind the clinical-looking slides pictured above is that they’re not biological samples from a medical lab but delicious candies made from simple syrup, a few drops of food coloring and a hefty dose of ingenuity.

Today I am putting fans of Modern Interior Design and / or Showtime Television programming on notice: you only have two more weeks to see the mind-blowing awesomeness that is Showtime House, which Geoffrey and I spent a couple of hours exploring yesterday afternoon.

The exhibit is a collaboration between the Showtime channel and Metropolitan Home, and features entirely different rooms than those found in last year’s Gramercy Park Showtime House.

BLOODBATH MAT
“Bloodbath Mat” Get It?

I don’t usually consider myself to be in possession of a particularly sick sense of humor, but I do appreciate the twisted sensibility of this Blood Stained Bath Mat. Maybe that’s because I am currently immersed in trying to get caught up on three seasons of Dexter. Buy one for yourself (only $29.80, what a bargain!) at This Link!

Thanks to Miss Cellania at Mental Floss For The Tip!
