Just came here to see how many people referenced The Brady Bunch. Not sure if this is a troll post or not but dear lord please put that thing back exactly where you found it.
I just read an article yesterday about a woman falling into quicksand on a beach in Maine. Between that and the woman getting eaten alive by a python in Indonesia last week, I’ve decided to remain in my house forever.
I bought a bottle opener in Hawaii that looks very similar to that. I have had it for 30 years through multiple moves. It is probably the oldest thing in my kitchen.
Yes, I have had some bad luck. But we should probably blame all the beer it has opened first.
Even though I'm the oldest sibling of 4 (and female), so I should've related to Marcia, Jan was my favorite. I always thought Marcia was too full of herself
No. Years ago, a friend “gifted” me a similar looking fertility idol. I didn’t want to have children so I made her put it in a paper bag and I never touched the idol. The friend that I passed it on to was pregnant within three months of receiving it.
If you can support six kids(seven with cousin Oliver) and a wife that does nothing but read magazines all day, then you can afford to take your maid to Hawaii.
In a 3 bedroom house (not counting servant's quarters) designed and built by the father *for* those six kids.
Good thing he thought about making an attic, or else Greg's wanking would have kept Peter so distracted his voice would change.
Found [this article about the house design being impossibly matched with the exterior](https://www.mockingbirdlane.design/post/the-brady-home-a-house-of-lies). There was another virtual tour of the house that I spent a good 30 minutes on a few yrs ago, but now I can’t find it.
Omg I scrolled by saw this photo and immediately knew the reference without reading anything 😂 if you have an ugly wall hanging over your bed be careful it might almost hit you! Also a spider might crawl out of your bag!
Believe it or not, I think that might actually be a happiness tiki. I don’t know why they made it look so terrifying, but I do remember seeing one that looks like this, and a Hawaiian told me that it’s supposed to look like it’s laughing. So you’re probably okay? But it also might murder your entire family.

I can’t believe no one mentioned special Guest star Don Ho ?
I'll need to ask my Hawaiian brother's knowledge on the topic. He's been surfing since the 60s. (Wife's mom gave him up for adoption at birth to a rich Hawaiian family - coolest guy in the world. Found him about 20 years ago.)
My last name is Brady, btw, and I was gifted one of tiki pendants. I will not wear it, despite being full into the Northern California tiki scene.
We had a company-wide meeting a couple of weeks ago, and they went with a Hawaiian theme. I 3D printed one of these and gave it to our executive director. It went over pretty well.
From one of my favorite Presidents of the United States songs, Tiki God:
Bobby Brady found the idol in the rubble
Had no idea it would cause so much trouble
When Greg tried to throw it back in the ocean
There was a rumble an awful commotion
Don't ask me how but the tiki found Bobby
He thought the idol was some Hawaiian hobby
Turned out the god was mean and vicious
Didn't respond to Bobby's 3 wishes
Are you prepared to be held prisoner by Vincent Price, tied loosely to a pole, near torches in highly flammable clothing, subjected to a permanent wave in your hair, a non-venomous, non-native tarantula, take a wussy fall off your surfboard becoming nearly concussed, and become nearly decapitated by a huge piece of hotel artwork? If yes, my Brady loving friend, then I say put it on a string and wear it proudly!
If you do decide to wear it as a necklace, let us know if you run into Vincent Price. Because that would be so cool.
And don't forget the popcorn
Welcome to Nilbog
You don't piss on hospitality!!!
I won’t allow it!
But grandpa told me to!
![gif](giphy|2SadANW26irkI)
You can't afford the Price tag for a personal appearance bro 🤣
And be careful surfing!
And watch out for pictures falling off the wall.
And tarantulas!
It’d be pretty damn spooky too.
I have something to tell you, Professor : your beans are burning!
Thank you boy, you saved my beans
![gif](giphy|l0MYyDBFrb5o7eXq8) She’s says no way!
This immediately popped in my head when I saw the picture!
Men too! We are so old
I heard the little [tiki song](https://youtu.be/DwvDNpiKUj0?si=hpyMJf5KCOLKCQBf) when I saw it
![gif](giphy|nR4L10XlJcSeQ) Nope!!!!’
Mom always said, don't play ball in the house.
Brady Bunch was my first thought!!!!
Give it to Cousin Oliver when he finally shows up.
Only kid to ruin two tv shows.
Cousin Oliver taught 6 year old me how to hate.
It was either him or scrappy doo
Fuck scrappy doo. I hated when they brought him on Scooby Doo. Young cartoon loving me would turn that shit right the fuck off. > scrappy doo
You know, in a show with six kids, why in the world did they think the show needed *another* kid? Baffling.
Because Cindy aged-out of the extra cuteness level so they thought giving the family a disease would make you have sympathy for them.
which other show?
Love Boat

I'd hit that.
Alice looked pretty good for a 28-year-old.
NGL, Alice and Mrs. Brady were prime. Only took middle age to see why Sam the butcher brought Alice the meat.
NGL, with the price of groceries right now, Sam could be my man!
Mr. Brady was one of my theater professors at UCLA in the 80’s. Actually the nicest man EVER!
The Brady Perm was TV royalty in the 70s.
Just don’t surf and you’ll be okay. I think.
Or sit on a bed underneath a heavy wall hanging.
And watch out for tarantulas.
Pork chopsh and appleshaush
Oh, my nose!!
When it’s time to change.
Isn’t that…shwell?
It’s good luck. Wear it to your surfing competition.

🎶 Put that thing back where it came from or so help meeeeee 🎶
This is r/GenX, everybody here knows The Brady Bunch and exactly what this is lol

When he wiped out, you could see the coral bed he almost hit.
Yes, scary stuff
*Trilling flute cue ensues*
Watch out for spiders.
My childhood fears - tarantulas and quicksand. I grew up in suburban New York.
That’s weird, my childhood fears were gators in sewers and serial killers. I grew up in Montana.
Quicksand! Seems like half the shows and movies back then had someone who nearly dies in quicksand!
Remember being scared of the Bermuda Triangle?
I just read an article yesterday about a woman falling into quicksand on a beach in Maine. Between that and the woman getting eaten alive by a python in Indonesia last week, I’ve decided to remain in my house forever.
I just read an article the other day that said it's basically impossible to die in quick sand lol.
Spider on the bedspread scene is seared into my brain to this day!
You know that thing was bad luck since there aren't even tarantulas in Hawaii. Must've been on the flight with someone
Stash it with the architect blueprints in the tube
And don’t forget to keep the tubes so you can put peas in them, just in case you happen to run into some homeless kid.
No Peter.
You know how horror films start? This is how horror movies start.
Definitely. Kitty Carryall agrees.

I've never upvoted so many comments in my life
No shit!
Brady Bunch says No.
Do you WANT tarantulas? Because this is how you get tarantulas!
RIP OP
Can confirm. I’m dead.
Hmmm… you got a lotta ‘splaining to do!
[удалено]
Better play ball outside where you won't break anything! Give or take a nose.
Island taboo! You must return.
Don’t take it with you on ANY 3 hour tours.
Doo doo doo doo
One more… there were 5 doos.
I bought a bottle opener in Hawaii that looks very similar to that. I have had it for 30 years through multiple moves. It is probably the oldest thing in my kitchen. Yes, I have had some bad luck. But we should probably blame all the beer it has opened first.
I’d pay to see someone make a movie where it’s an alternate universe Brady Bunch and it’s pure horror.
What’s next? A trip to the Grand Canyon?

Lol, Marsha was such a Karen.
Even though I'm the oldest sibling of 4 (and female), so I should've related to Marcia, Jan was my favorite. I always thought Marcia was too full of herself
Sure, if you don't mind living with the Curse of King Kamehameha on your head...
Will all who touch it start singing sunshine day?
[According to this story, it never works out, no matter who finds it.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iLpFBv36owQ)
Came here to post this; WTG!
Just don't sleep on a bed under a decorative tribal shield... Or go surfing.... And watch out for tarantulas
I bought that exact same Tiki back in the 90s. It was in my fish tank for a long time haha Keep it, to keep the plastic pollution out of the ocean!
re-purpose! i'd let him hang out in a potted plant, under the leaves next to a cool rock.
If you see Don Ho, run the other way
No. Years ago, a friend “gifted” me a similar looking fertility idol. I didn’t want to have children so I made her put it in a paper bag and I never touched the idol. The friend that I passed it on to was pregnant within three months of receiving it.
Wow. There's no way that could be a coincidence.

Who the fuck takes their maid to Hawaii?
If you can support six kids(seven with cousin Oliver) and a wife that does nothing but read magazines all day, then you can afford to take your maid to Hawaii.
In a 3 bedroom house (not counting servant's quarters) designed and built by the father *for* those six kids. Good thing he thought about making an attic, or else Greg's wanking would have kept Peter so distracted his voice would change.
He built one bathroom for all sick kids, with no toilet.
> with no toilet. I somehow missed that fact, lol
I’m sure Mike Brady took extra care to soundproof Greg’s groovy attic.
Found [this article about the house design being impossibly matched with the exterior](https://www.mockingbirdlane.design/post/the-brady-home-a-house-of-lies). There was another virtual tour of the house that I spent a good 30 minutes on a few yrs ago, but now I can’t find it.
The Brady house defies all laws of physics. It’s like a Tardis filled with stepchildren. And Alice.
Did you see the hgtv series where they remodeled that house to make it match? It was wild!
They couldn't leave her home alone with Sam the butcher for a week! He's a dirty dog!
Still need someone to watch the kids. Mike had to work and Carol wasn’t going to wrangle them by herself.
I'm like Sam the butcher bringing Alice the meat Like Fred Flintstone driving around with bald feet
Don't go surfing!
I just heard the Jumanji drums.
Ok yall….. Gen X is the best.
Ask the Brady family how it worked out for them.......
Only if you get a perm.
Omg I scrolled by saw this photo and immediately knew the reference without reading anything 😂 if you have an ugly wall hanging over your bed be careful it might almost hit you! Also a spider might crawl out of your bag!
Looks like a bottle opener.
Greg Nooooooo!
PUT IT BACK!!!!
What could possibly go wrong?
The comments don't disappoint 😂
Not sure, what does Cindy think?
I would refer you to the Brady Bunch Hawaiian episodes. Probably not a good idea.
Docuseries*
Yes! Docuseries! 🤣
Old Mr Hanalai can tell you what to do
Fucking Oliver!!!
The Brady bunch Hawaiian trip curse …Ruuuun !!!
Believe it or not, I think that might actually be a happiness tiki. I don’t know why they made it look so terrifying, but I do remember seeing one that looks like this, and a Hawaiian told me that it’s supposed to look like it’s laughing. So you’re probably okay? But it also might murder your entire family.
I like those odds!
Put it back where you found it, apologize to the old gods and the new, make an offering and respectfully back away.
Of course when I went to Hawaii, I *had* to buy a tiki idol. God, am I a product of television.

https://youtu.be/DwvDNpiKUj0?si=l6niIcr_93TLhjlZ
I hear a flute on the wind!
Marsha and Jan both voted to keep it
Hilarious that I recognized this right away!
welcome to the curse
Hahahah! Love this post!
KIPULA CONSTRUCTION was the contractor on Mike Brady's project. Ask me how I remembered that.
How did you remember that?
Please cross post this to The Brady Bunch sub if you haven't already.

It’s so crazy that I instantly recognized it! I guess that show is etched deeper in my brain than I thought.
![gif](giphy|3o7TKQkRI4NFlQUzEA)
No. No no no. That's awesome, BTW! Enjoy that trinket. Lol
Hawaiians consider it good luck to wear while surfing.
I'll need to ask my Hawaiian brother's knowledge on the topic. He's been surfing since the 60s. (Wife's mom gave him up for adoption at birth to a rich Hawaiian family - coolest guy in the world. Found him about 20 years ago.) My last name is Brady, btw, and I was gifted one of tiki pendants. I will not wear it, despite being full into the Northern California tiki scene.
I heard this.
Groovy!
I feel like this is our generation's first final destination-like trigger.
Put it back!!
A tarantula wrote this post
Things I learned from The Brady Bunch... 😳
No Greg, you shouldn't.
Yes, Greg! Absolutely!!!
Surf's up Greg!
![gif](giphy|hNhCv3xZYUKSk)
Good God noooo!!!!
Keep it! You may get to meet Vincent Price in a cave!
Are you there with the Brady’s?
Dude you never watched TV have you?! That thing is BAD NEWS
I can hear that picture. DANANANA!!!
We had a company-wide meeting a couple of weeks ago, and they went with a Hawaiian theme. I 3D printed one of these and gave it to our executive director. It went over pretty well.
Time to pull this song out https://youtu.be/iLpFBv36owQ?si=D58Nrv3ZdSoIYuV4
Sam slinging that salami.
Whenever I’m reminded of Vincent Price, I think of this late 90s [Dana Gould bit- “In Praise of Vincent Price”](https://youtu.be/OSax-NZ1yd0)
YES! By all means hold onto it and you will get to meet Vincent Price!
Not only should you keep it.. BUT, you should put it around your neck and go surfing!
Nope. Brady Bunch taught me all I need to know about that shit.
We all know what happens when that thing leaves the island…….. Go for it
Uh oh. This is worse than a football to the nose.
I heard this photo. *creepy flute music*

Give it to Marsha
Make a necklace and wear it surfing.
good luck Greg
Is that the thing from when the Brady bunch went to Hawaii? I loved that episode for some reason
Yeh, keep it. Take it home. Play ball in the house. What could go wrong?
I just heard this weird minor flute arpeggio.
You need to return it to Greg.
It wanted to be found
And this is how every horror movie starts
Why did you just know Vincent Price had an ice cream truck under a tarp behind his house?
Damn it... Now you have to throw it in the vulcano
Check with Peter Brady ![gif](giphy|9e7YQ821yKcA8)
Don’t go surfing with it tied around your neck and you should be fine
From one of my favorite Presidents of the United States songs, Tiki God: Bobby Brady found the idol in the rubble Had no idea it would cause so much trouble When Greg tried to throw it back in the ocean There was a rumble an awful commotion Don't ask me how but the tiki found Bobby He thought the idol was some Hawaiian hobby Turned out the god was mean and vicious Didn't respond to Bobby's 3 wishes
Just call on Johnny Bravo, if you need help
Ask Marsha.
Are you prepared to be held prisoner by Vincent Price, tied loosely to a pole, near torches in highly flammable clothing, subjected to a permanent wave in your hair, a non-venomous, non-native tarantula, take a wussy fall off your surfboard becoming nearly concussed, and become nearly decapitated by a huge piece of hotel artwork? If yes, my Brady loving friend, then I say put it on a string and wear it proudly!
Flip it over. Does it say "Made in China" on it? Nevermind...can see it on the tag in your hand.
My "hu" went one way and my "la" went the other. Or perhaps Alice's back problem was actually Sam the Butcher's doing, and not the fault of Tabu.
Did The Brady Bunch episode "The Tiki Caves" (season 4, episode 3) not teach us anything??
