Whiskey. Turkey. Foxtrot.

Think all those turkey cakes are bad?
Well, they are.
But these are worse:
1. Mildly amusing idea, SUPER creepy execution:
No. Just... no.
2. "Jack Skellington and the Politically-Incorrect Window Display of Holiday Awkwardness."
With bonus charred turkey flying out of a pumpkin.
3. Evil Zombie Pilgrim:
Yeesh, this reminds me of the bad guy in Disney's Hunchback of Notre Dame. Whatever happened to all the cute little pilgrims?
Oh, wait, here they come!
4. Pilgrims in straitjackets:
You know, I'm starting to think bakers REALLY don't like these guys.
5. Thanksgiving Bachelorette Party:
"Hey, bebeh, do you prefer light meat, or dark?" [eyebrow waggle]
6. "Heeeeeeere's JOHNNY!"
Admit it: you'd order a dozen of these in a heartbeat, just to see your in-laws' reactions.
Actually, Jeannie tells me she HAD to buy this because her cell phone camera wasn't working - and this obviously needed to be documented for posterity. POSTERITY THANKS YOU, JEANNIE.
Posterity also thanks Megan L., Christie C., Jamie N., Rob, & Laurie R. for the excellent wreckporting.

Goodness, gracious, great balls of fire! I had no idea what be a merkin. Thanks, BADKarma. I believe one of these days I will follow in the footstep of that curious cat...until then, Google is my frenemy.
The Gingerbread Man ATE THE SPAGHETTI!!!
@WorrierPrincess - "Remind me, which Tim Burton movie featured a pumpkin-headed fruit bat?"
The one co-written with Christopher Moore, of course: Roberto hasn't taken off his Halloween costume yet. ;)
#6 looks like the movie alien - coming out of john hurt's chest.
Apparently, Gingerbread Man is the new Pan-Wow.
I like it better when the bakers at least leave the smiley face off of Ginger so we can all *pretend* it's not a man-shaped cookie with a duck/daisy/earofcorn/turkey crotch decoration.
I'll say this for the baker of Ken's cake, that tiny turkey looks about a thousand times better than any of those ice cream turkeys from yesterday.
Off the subject, but way too fun not to share: Youngest Daughter is actually upset with me because I'm "not a Time Lord" (well, so am I, but...) This may be a new one in the Moo-oom-You're-SOOO-Laammme book. But how do you respond to that?
Admit it: you'd order a dozen of these in a heartbeat, just to see your in-laws' reactions.
... um yep definitely!
#3. My first thought: "What happened to its face?!" Then I scrolled down and thought "Never mind...".
@Pam & @Misti, perhaps it's a (distant) relative of Eccentrica Gallumbits??
about #5;
it says give thanks. give thanks for what, exactly? or are we better off not knowing?
Oh man I can't stop laughing long enough to catch a breath. Especially over the cookie oh man lmao. I can only imagine my dad's reaction if I brought anything that looked like that home for Thanksgiving. Ah thanks for the hysterical laughing.
@jackwire: Go Cotton!
I think the first one is a Far Side comic
Haha oh dear at least one of them's a dollar off...oy
