At least the void can stare back now
Photo: Courtesy of the author My habit for years has been to stockpile googly eyes of all sizes. Mostly I slip the tiny ones into cards as a little surprise to the recipients. There’s also a quarter-sized pair I left in bed with my boyfriend last year, the night before we eloped, that has been floating about our apartment ever since, like a traveling sight gag.
They’ve always been around, but now they’re everywhere. In mid-March, the satirist Audrey Burges ordered a bulk pack of googly eyes: “It’s about to get real anthropomorphized in here,” she announced. About that time, the NPR producer Lauren Migaki tweeted “A social distancing decorating tip: while stocking up on TP, make sure to check out the craft aisle for some googly eyes.” Googly eyes are “necessary quarantine supplies,” someone agreed.
“A huge round of applause to whomever is putting googly eyes on trees in Scotstoun — they fairly cheered up my jaunt around the block,” the BBC broadcaster Joy Dunlop just tweeted. “[S]omeone put googly eyes on a bird of a paradise I walk past every day. [D]oesn’t get much better than this,” New York Times creative director Nathan Reese similarly praised.
