I SAW SOMEBODY ON THE EL THIS MORNING WEARING AN ICP SHIRT. See, I got so excited by that I had to write in all caps. I almost started laughing until I realized the dude was twice my size, then I laughed anyway.

While the existance of such a lamp is somewhat disturbing, the fact that it's located in Aurora does not surprise me in the least.

"hella-cooler"? wtf does that mean? For that matter, what's an ICP?

There's nothing cool about a band that sucks at life the way ICP does.

For what it is worth, Insane Clown Posse's recent show at the Congress Theater had the kids lined up around the block to get in, dressed up all Gwar-style and ready to go. It being Radiohead Day here at Chicagoist, it is worth noting that Carnival Of Carnage, ICP's first record, came out in 1992. Radiohead's Pablo Honey? '93. And you got to admit, that lamp is hella-cooler than this metal badge: http://www.waste.uk.com/Store/waste-radiohead-dii-22-179-logo+badge+badge.html

I think this might be one of those rare occassions in which I feel lucky to have craigslist blocked by my employer. . .

I didn't read the listing too thoroughly, is it a ICP-sanctioned lamp, sold on their website or is it a custom job? Furthermore, which option is sadder and scarier (not clown scary but Jesus-Christ-what-has-this-world-come-to scary)

Wait, the ICP still have fans? Weren't they called Juggalos or something? I guess they must be losing fans if they are selling their ICP lamps. For ten bucks.
