“Chief Merman Christmas Ornament from December Diamonds is a traditional tribal chief that leads a tribe.”
He must be the “traditional tribal chief” of one of those NW coast tribes. They really like their salmon. Ayyye.
Yeah, I have no idea. Luckily this guy is only $23.95, much unlike our lovely $7000 “Pueblo Clown Goes to Sturgis” from last week.
Happy Friday!
Diamonds of the Sea: Chief Merman Ornament
(Thanks Maren!)
MerMAN (cough, cough). MerMAN.

Who buys this stuff? I mean, really who is their target demographic? I don’t even.
My response exactly.
It’s a gay fetish-y website. Therefore… either gays with BOTH a merman fetish and an NDN fetish. Or anyone else who wants to camp up Christmas- while keeping it racially tinged. Equally offensive are their “Black Bling Merman”, their “Black Biceps Merman” and the “Bones Merman” (the latter being a caricature of a Caribbean Native)…
“They are one of a kind and will look great as they add a little sparkle to your Christmas tree.”
I never thought of racism as sparkly…

What the….seriously little mermaid meets pocahontis who thinks of this stuff up? Tacky collectors junk. This is insulting to everyone.
I agree! It’s insulting to Natives, to merpeople, to Christmas tree ornament aficianados, people’s intelligence…

Check out the whole site, gang. It’s some kind of utterly bizzarro gay christmas ornament emporium. There’s a merman for every sort of gay you know! You could even assemble a fairly accurate Village People.
But that’s definitely not a Pac NW Merman, that shit’s all wrong.
the cop’s shirt is even ripped in all the right places:
