I am both saddened and disgusted at the "50 Craft Uses for a Bandana" list that I found attached to my recently purchased bandana. The list includes shabby uses like:
"Use on a picture frame"
"Make a girl's skirt"
"Candle rings"
"Sew into a soft wallet"
"Cover cigar box for a purse"
And others that are not fit to mention as I am sure that you already get the point. And the point is this: People buy bandanas because they are gangster pirates - not to "create a child's footstool" or to "embellish flip-flop sandals". This is corporate irresponsibility at it's worst and we as a people should rise up, fists in the air, and demand legitimacy in advertising. The following is a list that I have compiled that illustrates the TRUE use of bandanas. I hope that you will find it useful and informative.
1. Sling for an AK-47
2. Tourniquet
3. Represent colors of your chosen gang
4. Broken arm sling
5. Headband
6. Bankrobbing mask
7. Tactical sweatband
8. Cleaning towel for Glocks
9. Polish rag for combat boots
10. Teething toy for pit bull pups
11. Stuff with quarters for blackjack sack
12. Tie wrists together for Mexican knife fights
13. Use as fuse for Moloktov Cocktails
14. Blindfolds for executions
15. Gift wrap for kilos of cocaine
16. Makeshift eye patch
17. Padding for elbows when smashing car windows
18. Wiping off fingerprints
19. Ghetto loin cloth at pool parties
20. Diaper for gangster babies
21. Use as gag during interrogations
22. 40 oz. beer insulator
23. Lunch bag for runaway juvenile delinquents to attach to a stick
24. White bandanas for use as surrender flags in enemy gang territory
25. Sweat rag for prison work-outs
If you have further legitimate uses for bandanas please include them by leaving feedback.
