It’s time for another fun and exciting episode of the Super Awesome Show with Shana and David! A new episode means a peek at more new products.
This time we get a look at the incredible Slicey the Pig Dashboard Wiggler, the Dashboard Monster, and Underpants Candy – possibly the strangest, silliest candy we’ve come up with yet. And if all that wasn’t awesome enough, you also get a sneak peek at the new Accoutrements catalog! Are you ready?
Check it out:
We’re proud to introduce one of our newest and strangest products yet. Meet Slicey the Pig Dashboard Wiggler. Slicey is a vinyl pig who holds a large carving knife to his own mid-section while he grins maniacally. Stick him on the dashboard of your car with the adhesive base and he will go into a slicing frenzy every time you go over a bump. That crazy Slicey, what will he do next?
If Slicey looks a little familiar, it might be because you’ve seen the old French advertisement he’s based on:
Never has a pig looked so incredibly happy to be serving up slices of himself!
So we know Mother’s Day is coming up, but did you know that there are a bunch of other holidays celebrated in the month of May? No? Well it’s a good thing we’re here to help!
These are a few of our favorites:
May 3rd was Hug Your Cat Day, which should not to be confused with Hug Someone Else’s Cat Day, which falls on June 4th.
We love cats and we love hugging our cats too, even though sometimes they aren’t too keen on it. So while we may have technically missed this holiday, we’re pretty sure we celebrated without even knowing it.
May 6th is National Nurses Day, which sounds like a great reason to gift a nurse with some of our fun designer bandages or the First Aid Indian Educational Poster.
May 9th is Lost Sock Memorial Day. We all have sad orphan socks in our drawers. This is the day we need to take them out and honor the memory of their lost siblings, turn the orphaned sock into a puppet, and then go out and buy a fresh new pair of socks.
May 14th is National Dance Like a Chicken Day!
“Call up your local oom pah band, because today we Vogeltanz until we drop. Or, gather all the Arrested Development fanatics you know and start a round of your worst chicken dance impersonations. Or introduce your own interpretation of how a chicken might dance. All of the above apply, as long as your moves are fowl.” Whatever you do, the day can only be improved by including some of our Rubber Chicken items.
May 23rd is Lucky Penny Day. On this day finding lucky pennies on the ground is exponentially luckier, so keep your eyes peeled. But remember, don’t pick up that penny unless you see Abraham Lincoln’s face staring up at you. And if you decide to pick it up anyway, you’d better have some of our Jinx Removing Spray on hand to fend off bad luck.

The next time someone tells you, “Eat my shorts,” you tell them no problem and pull out your tin of tasty, tutti frutti Underpants Candy. These might just be the yummiest underpants you’ve ever eaten and some of the strangest and silliest candies ever made:
This year Mother’s Day falls on Sunday, May 13th, which means it’s right around the corner.
Mother’s Day has been officially celebrated in the US on the second Sunday of May every year since it began on May 10, 1908. Did you know that there are approximately 83 million mothers in this country? That’s a whole lot of mom’s to thank and celebrate! Fortunately we’ve got a broad selection of gift options for all the different sorts of mums out there, including those whose children are, well, furrier than most.
That’s right, another Friday the 13th is upon us. On this unluckiest of days make sure you don’t walk under any ladders, break any mirrors, or let a black cat cross your path. That is, unless you’ve armed yourself with our Jinx Removing Spray!
Do you know someone who’s prone to streaks of bad luck or facing a challenge and needs a little boost in confidence? There’s no better way to wish someone “Good luck!” than with the gift of a bottle of our Jinx Removing Spray. Even the most superstitious folks can throw caution to the wind after receiving a spritz of this fragrant potion.
Shana and David are back bringing you another exciting episode of The Super Awesome Show where they introduce more new Accoutrements products and share what makes them so awesome.
Get ready for such wonders as the Inflatable Unicorn Horn (be a unicorn in an instant, anytime and anywhere), the Emergency Inflatable Rubber Chicken, Honey Badger Mints (although the honey badger doesn’t care about a lot of things, he does care about your bad breath), the Zombie Sleep Mask (sleep the sleep of the undead), Squirrel and Cardinal latex masks, and the Eyeball Lunch Bag.
How on earth did we come up with the idea for an Eyeball Lunch Bag?
Watch the video to find out:
Most people have encountered wiggly, jiggly googly eyes at some point in their lives, but here’s a playful trend involving them that you might not have heard of: Eyebombing!
Eyebombing is the act of attaching googly eyes to objects in public places. Doing this instantly transforms an otherwise ordinary, inanimate object into a silly anthropomorphized object now sporting a face and life of its own. Websites like Eyebombing and Eyebombers are devoted promoting this hobby and enabling people to share their eyebombing escapades.
Our set of Emergency Googly Eyes comes in a beautiful, eye-covered tin filled with 20 pairs of plastic eyes in four different sizes ranging from 1/2″ (1.3 cm) to 13/16″ (3 cm) in diameter. These googly eyes already have an adhesive backing, so they’re ready to be stuck onto just about any surface that an eager eyebomber might encounter, from humble office supplies to fire hydrants. The possibilities are endless.
We even made a video demonstrating how to put our Emergency Googly Eyes to use:
With a set of Emergency Googly Eyes in hand the world is suddenly teeming with potential faces!

Our very own Phil stars as the birdwatcher in this thrilling sequel to Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds! Heff costars as the bird while wearing one of our awesome Cardinal Masks.
You never know what you’ll find out in the woods.
Shana and David go over some of the newest Accoutrements products and their favorite Valentine’s items.
