I was prompted by Talisman's words in another post somewhere... About the Tarot of the Garden Snails. So I thought, what is the silliest or weirdest Tarot deck you can think of?
I was in Philosophy when I thought about an Eraser Tarot, with laodsa erasers, and faces drawn on them ,acting out the scenes in the Tarot... I might actually have fun doing that tonight! (Just imaine the Hanged Eraser...)
How about the Pickled Onion Tarot?
Scratch and Sniff Tarot?
Anyone wanna chip in and ive us a laugh?

Sillest theme for a deck? OK - here goes:
The Wheelie Bin Tarot (marketed in America as Trash Can Tarot)
Cleaning Products Tarot
Television Tarot (scenes framed in various TVs and character depicted on TVs within the frames)
Insect Tarot
Miss Piggy Tarot (she features on every card folks!)
Monster Raving Looney Tarot (each card featuring a candidate standing in a UK election)
That's enough for now }> Enjoy :D

The Religious Wacko Tarot. The Judgement card could feature Jerry Falwell. Tammy Faye and Jim Baker could be the Lovers. Osama Bin Laden could be the Devil....
The Q-Tip tarot
The Cockroach Tarot
The Barney and Friends Tarot

Anyone remember the Garbage Pail Kids collectible cards? They were like sticker cards that came in bubble gum. The were out right after the Cabbage Patch Kid dolls were first introduced. I used to have a ton of 'em. *sigh* I'm showing my age. If I could remember any of the names of the cards I'd suggest a Major Arcana list but alas, along with age comes forgetfulness.... ;)

Hello,
I cannot remember in which culture (I think it was the Osman/turkish), but in fact the tables after meals of important meetings where interpreted for divination; and I think this is very sensible and can bring good results.
A transvestite tarot is not silly at all.
In fact, regarding the loads of certain-people-tarot, I think it is a missing one. What personally and individually is seen as ridiculous, for others might be their very serious lifes. How about thinking a bit more before insulting minorities? Is it so difficult to activate the preview-your-post function and read and think through a posting again?

The People With No Sense of Humor tarot: Monica Lewinsky as the Fool, Hilary Clinton as the Empress, Barbara Streisand as the High Priestess..... this could alternately be called the People Who Take Themselves Too Seriously tarot. :P I also think we can include all the casts of MTV's the Real World, but they could really only be the MINORS!!!!! :D

As usual, the purpose of peoples' posts are misunderstood. It seems to me, from my experience, that the only people who insult those being mentioned, in this case, transvestites, are those who think of it as an insult in the first place. Notice that the person who posted it, and most of those thereafter did not feel it to be an insult, cuz to us, transvestites are just normal. We laugh because it has not been done before, and the possibilities of spoofing the Rider Waite deck with the Hnaged Man wearing a mini skirt and suspenders does seem to draw some very funny images in the mind. It is not transvestites we are laughing at, it is how the pictures would look!
Please just imagine the pictures, and laugh! I hope that any transevetites who were offended realise that if we can laugh at ourselves, we have all that we need to survive this world.

??? ??? Still trying to figure out which minority got insulted, and where. ??? ???
And why.
Maybe if this thread had been called "THE MOST POLITICALLY INCORRECT THEME DECK" and someone created 'The Faggot Tarot' there might be a reason to censure such a post.
Are you offended by the writings of Mark Twain, who uses the 'N' word a lot? I'm not thrilled to see it in print, but I know it was a product of it's time and can read it thusly; to censor the book would be a crime since it would negate the wealth of writings Sam Clemans wrote. You cannot sanitize nor rewrite history to make it less offensive to you; were that the case, then all writings of World War 2 where the japanese are referred to as 'japs' or 'the enemy' would have to be burned, since now they are our allies, and we can't offend them for bombing Pearl Harbor 60 years ago.

Silliest theme for a tarot deck:
People who have their heads so far up their asses that they'll never see daylight.
The two people on this forum who might have been vaguely insulted by a 'Transvestitie tarot' (Nexy and Myself) both see the humor in the situation. Being gay (me) and being transgendered (Nexy), we are comfortable with the blending or blurring of gender lines. The Queen of Swords being a large hairy man in a glitzy evening gown & in need of a shave is quite funny! Kiama- the Hanged Man would have a jockstrap on under his miniskirt!
I think you are uncomfortable with your own sexuality; not upset at the suggestion of a 'Transvestite tarot'.
Like Mae West said: People who are easily shocked should be shocked more often.

i've been trying to think of a silly theme for a deck but many of the themes i have thought of so far have potential--to me at least. ***the medical tarot***the patient would be fool, of course. the MD the magician, nurse the high priestess, the hierphant the HMO/insurance administrator...the suits would be blood-cups, respiration(air)swords, pentacles-skin, and fire the nervous system. in fact this idea has been so good i've been using it to help me study! :D now i have to come up w/ a new silly idea. i'm considering the potential of a Ty beanie baby tarot or gary larsen's farside cartoon tarot or women's shoes tarot. the only prob w/ a women's shoes tarot would be that 78 cards wouldn't be enough for any woman who owns the deck! ;D

Okay, I have been really thinking on this one, and I must be losing my touch. These ideas are so hillarious! I don't know if I can compete, but here goes.........
How about the Tarot of the Mother in Laws? Each card would embodie a different yet classic nag! (He never had to eat Hamburger Helper in My House!, What do you mean you can't afford to buy MY daughter a Mercedes after all that money you spent on Football Tickets?) I don't know what the pics would look like, but it would save the Mother in Laws a lot of time if they didn't have to tell you, you could just draw a card!
How about an Obsessive Compulsive Tarot. All 78 cards would be identical for people who thrive on hearing and repeating the same post...er....thing over and over again.

Hello,
sorry for the multiple postings; this thread does not work properly.
Besides this, I cannot follow your point of view.
Humour for me is like freedom. It ends where the other one´s starts. Especially when there is any sort of pain in the game. You wouldnt do a disabled tarot, would you? Although they can look very funny sometimes. I would not expect them to laugh about themselves.
Anyway, as this thread is probably not working now again and we are here to talk about tarot, I will leave this topic aside.

To the 'Humor Challanged' out there:
A man in a dress is funny, no matter what you think. This is what has sustained 'Charley's Aunt' and 'Where's Charley?' for over 100 years. Whenever a comedy show gets down in the ratings, someone gets a male character into women's clothes and WHAM! people laugh.
A 'Disabled tarot' would be revolting; no one would make fun of someone's afflictions; no publisher would print such a thing.

Yes! I REMEMBER THE GUMMI BEARS! You are talking about the kids programme, with Sonny, the yellow one, and that really grumpy orange granny one, and they all bounce fairly well? If so, then YAY! I thrived on that programme, as did my mother....
As for the more serious of the posts here.... No offense, but STOP HIJACKING THIS THREAD! Please, I just set it up for a laugh. And Kimon, if you think this is not talking Tarot I would beg to differ. Humour should be part of the Tarot. Laughing and criticising decks, (Esp. RW one IMNSHO) is part of how we learn to develop our own ideas... But enough of that.
He he... The college Tarot. Yep. Just think about your college days, and apply then to the Tarot.... I thought that'd put a smile on someone's face... (Me, I'm actually living my college years right now, so I find it very very funny, and actually, pretty close to home...)

re: a tarot deck about ppl w/ disabilities...i worked w/ ppl w/ multiple handicaps for 13 years. believe me, if the humor was done in good taste, they would not be offended. i have often been amazed at their ability to laugh at themselves, non-disabled ppl, and the absurdity of life in general. one woman who's been in a wheel chair all her life used to joke about her answer to ppl who asked her if she planned to have any children--"i would but it would be pretty uncomfortable delivering the baby's wheelchair!" then there was the woman who'd "drive" her motorized wheelchair(the chariot) down the highway with a sign on the back of her chair--"give me my side of the road! i pay taxes, too!" i knew a man w/ severe cerebral palsy who was unable to speak or walk. yet w/ a stick(pointer) fitted in a strap around his head could use a computer or spelling board to speak for him. i've never known a guy w/ so many girlfriends and he got a real stud reputation on campus. b/c of his pointer, he called himself "the unicorn". his nickname around campus became "the horny uni". he absolutely loved the nickname! it was really so funny! i never saw him as anything but a man. he had a fuller life than many of us do. last i heard from him, he's married, has a job, and several children. in my experience visually impaired ppl seem to take their blindness w/ the best humor. the groups i've been around are constantly making fun of blindness and the discomfort of sighted ppl w/ their impairment.
i think any discomfort we have w/ certain issues can be eased w/ humor. i'll never forget listening to a college lecture about spinal disabilities. the professor was talking about a client who had a slipped disk but accidentally said this client had a slipped dick. i think we all just about fell on the floor laughing. the poor professor was almost bald and his whole head turned red b/c he was so embarrassed.
they don't say humor is the best medicine w/o a reason. i became disabled 2+ years ago. i did not take my impairment very well at first. i was very bitter about the parts of my life i was giving up. but then i met a woman w/ cancer who had a marvelous sense of humor. we spent hours laughing about our ailments. it really turned my attitude and recovery around when i recovered my ability to laugh at myself again. as far as a tarot of disability goes, it could be done by someone disabled w/o being offensive. i think ppl who've been there could enjoy it. able bodied ppl could too if they lightened up a bit and realize that being unable to laugh w/ us is feeling sorry for us. i, for one, don't want pity. laughing at us excludes us and dehumanizes. laughing w/ us is includes us w/ the rest of the human race. we are all just human being no matter what makes us who or what we are. :) :D :p ;D

The problem, truthsayer, is that such a deck would have to be handled with much love, humor, and delicacy. It is easy to see such a thing twisted in the hands of an unscrupulous or uncaring person.
One thing that escapes many people, gay comics are usually laughing at themselves and the absurdities of life from their perspective. Finding the humor is what makes life worth living; using the humor takes the sting out of dealing with the realities of discrimination. I'll bet the 'horny Uni' has a terriffic outlook on life, while others around him can only see that he can't speak, and say ' Oh that poor man!' to themselves, never seeing the human spirit underneath.
Being able to laugh at yourself is a gift.

i absolutely agree, tarotbear. have you ever had laryngitis and gone to a restaurant? i did once and the person i was w/ was doing the talking for me. the waitress started ignoring me like i wasn't human since i couldn't speak. when she said while looking at my friend,"what will she have?" i exploded into a loud whisper,"i may not be able to talk but that doesn't mean that i can't hear or understand that you're ignoring me!!!!!!" she did about a triple take, apologized and then spoke directly to me. i pointed to what i wanted. so i have personally experienced and personally cried for the discrimination of many forms that ppl w/ disabilities face. as to the horny uni, most ppl only saw a tiny man w/ uncontrollable physical spasms strapped into a motorized wheelchair who drove his chair around campus w/ the pointer on his head pushing the "accelerator". he was thought to be mentally retarded for years and was institutionalized. then a caring nurse figured out how to communicate w/ him and turned his life around. he achieved a university degree. i found him to be a man of uncommon intelligence and insight--when he wasn't being such a cad! i was his nurse's aid at this time and we never dated. however, there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that muscle spasms or no--he was quite promiscuous! let's just say i heard the "walls talk" while coming to work for him one day. i let them be... :o :D
what you said about handling it w/ love, humor and delicacy--i believe i could do that w/ respect. it would also help me in my own healing to create such a tarot as i continue my recovery. i know so much about the absurdities and frustrations about disability from a personal and professional viewpoint. i've been working on a medical tarot, high school tarot and life passages tarot. i doubt any will be for anything but my own pleasure and challenge. what's a 4th challenge? thank-you so much for your comments, tarotbear. it would be impossible for me to explain to you why your sensitive words bring tears to my eyes but what you said has really endeared you to me. w/o doubt, the discrimination you have faced yourself has sensitized you to all forms of discrimination. may i offer you a "bear hug"?{{{{{{{{{{{{tarotbear}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

Truthsayer, and Tarotbear, I agree that disabled people can laugh at themselves! How much more grim it would be if they could not?? How about Steven Hawking, who I just love ( famous astronomer,astrophysisist,mathematician etc) totally paralyzed in a wheelchair. I don't know exactly how many wives he's had, but I think it's more than one. The current wife was his nurse. He ran over her then current husband with his wheelchair! (That'll get the message across , huh?!)

Truthsayer- thank you for the bearhug.
The problem, as I see it, is that you could create a beautiful and empathetic tarot based on your insight in dealing with the handicapable. It would deal with the problems of being in a wheel chair, effects of muscle spasms, etc. It would be a tribute to the strength that the handicapable find within themselves. The handicable people you show it to will immediately understand what you are doing, and even find some of it very humorous.
What will happen is that you will be crucified for 'insensitivity', reviled for preying on the deformities of others, and burned in effegy for 'making fun' of the disabled. All of these actions will be carried out by people who can walk unaided, work out in a club regularly, and have no concept that being trapped in a disfunctional prison called your body with no way to get out until you die is an everyday occurrance for some people. A truth in the background is that some of these people who will be yelling the loudest at you are terrified of the handicapped, wish they would all go away into a black hole somewhere, and walk away from people in wheelchairs as though they are spreading cancer or something.
If you don't believe this, just look at the reactions and tirades generated by my suggestion of a 'transvestite tarot'.

thank-you so much for sharing that purplelady! what a hoot! how they got away w/ doing so few cards is a total mystery to me. i'm pretty certain that i must have at least 20 different styles of black shoes in my closet and there's always room for another pair! :D i feel sure that i have enough shoes in my shoe collection to come up w/ 78 cards. ;D a friend once called me "imelda marcos" b/c he claimed that everytime he saw me i had on a different pair of shoes. i really think he was exaggerating but...!
do you remember al bundy, the women's shoes salesman, from "married w/ children"? the theme of women's shoes and al bundy might be pretty funny. i know some ppl hated MWC but i loved it for the characters abilities to take a humorous look at "politically incorrect" topics. al bundy would make a great Fool.

tarotbear,
i have no doubt your assessment is correct about the nondisabled population's reaction to a tarot aimed at ppl w/ disabilities. but as i see it that's their prob. as a woman i once met said,"we all just need to get over ourselves! life is too short to be serious all the time!" being disabled and being able to laugh at yourself is like trying to retell something funny that happened to you but nobody else gets it. one of those,"i guess you would have had to been there" times. i'm not saying i'm not happy to see heightened awareness and sensitivity towards ppl that are different than us. laughter eases tension and is a language we can all speak if done in the right way. i think recent tragedies have made it even more difficult to laugh. i watched an episode of saturday night live that was taped shortly after the terrorists attacks. i don't think there's enough money that would have made me perform to that audience. the performers were strained at lack of audience response to political jokes, etc. not that it was a tactful time to laugh your head off. everyone was in so much emotional turmoil and afraid to offend others by being too lighthearted in such a horrible time. i see whatever can make ppl laugh as a sign of where we stand as part of the group consciousness. it will be interesting to observe what helps us to laugh again. i wouldn't be surprized if off-the-wall comedies or heart warmers became highly popular like in WWII. i believe that's when musicals, the 3 stooges, and shirley temple were big.
anyhow, so much for my philosphizing. you are very sweet to be concerned about me, tarotbear. i'd only do such a deck for my own personal healing. laughter is the best medicine.
