Know someone hard to shop for? Are you sick of looking for something
they'll actually like? Why not try something sure to confuse them
instead? These 15 strange goodies will be great ways to throw off the
preconcieved gift ideas people already expect from you.
Know someone completely morbid? Maybe
someone who hates rodents? Well, I'm sure there's someone on your
list who would like genuine, freeze-dried squirrel
feet earings. Please don't ask me where they get the feet, I sincerely don't
want to know. Of course, if you do buy these for someone, you might
want to make sure you don't spend too much time with them afterwards.
After all, buying earrings for someone doesn't mean you ever want to
be seen with the person wearing them.
Who doesn't love eating fetuses? Oh yeah, pretty much everybody. But for the handful of weirdos who love them, be it weird punk rockers or pro-life fanatics, this fetus cookie cutter is just what the clinic doctor ordered. It's only $10, making it the perfect price for any total weirdo in your life.
Here's a great way to merge old Christmas traditions with modern day technology. Just pop a battery into this cute little LED Christmas tree and watch the motherboard light up its lovely flashing LED lights. It may be a little small to put presents under, but with the recession this year, that may be all the space you need. The LED Menorah is also pretty cool.
Know someone who loves to express themselves with their hands? “The Hand” will help them say it all when they're on the road. I know you're probably thinking of one particular hand gesture that may get you shot if you're in the wrong part of LA, but there are plenty of other things you can say with your hands, like “peace,” “hang ten,” or “live long and prosper.” Funny how they're mostly all the opposite of your naughty hand gesture isn't it?
Why worry about spoons and swizzle sticks when you can have a mug that does all the work for you? At the push of a button, your sugar, cream, booze and any other additions to your coffee can be blended in with this great Self-stirring mug. These are great for exceptionally lazy geeks, women with fused-wrists, spoon-phobic men and all kinds of other strange niches of people you probably don't really have in your life.
If you love Duck Hunt, or know someone
else who does, you'll appreciate this sweet gun alarm clock. It's
definitely an effective way to wake up, just shoot the target to get
the alarm to stop ringing. Besides the whole wake-up factor, it's
just really fun to play shoot things. (Buy here)
Some couples share everything. For the people who won't accept that there is such a thing as too much intimacy, there is Fundies. Underwear for two, is a great gift for those annoying couples who are pretty much joined at the hip anyway. You never know, maybe getting a gift like this will make them realize how clingy they've been, and hopefully, they won't be so damn annoying anymore. It could just be the gift that keeps on giving. (Buy here)
Nothing says "I love you" like a pin displaying an enema bag and an accompanying butt -of course, maybe that's because it doesn't say "I love you" at all. In fact, to me it seems to say "you're a pain in the butt that needs to be flushed out." But hey, if that's what you're looking for in a relationship, who am I to judge? What you do with your loved ones and your tush is your business. (Buy here)
Little boys love two things, toys that scare or annoy their sister and gross things. Why not give them an all in one gift combining the two joys for them? A radio-controlled tarantula is just the thing for scaring siblings and exploring just how fun huge spiders can be. (Buy here)
I gotta admit, this is probably the only thing on this list I actually would want. This teddy bear lamp is cuddly and functional and it would match my decapitated bear USB drive. Now that's some awesome style. He certainly would light up my life -and yes, that pun was intended.
Do your kids love tattoos? Do they think needles are fun? Then they're sure to love this GR8 TaT2 Maker toy that will train them for their future jobs requiring no education or real life experience. Not that tattoos or tattoo artist are a bad thing, not by any means, but is this really something you need to get your kids into early?
If you love biology, but hated all those dead little animals, you'll love this cute little knitted frog. All the organs are in place for your dissecting pleasure, although I don't recommend actually removing them. You can unpin him from the background and cuddle your dead amphibian friend through, which makes him more of a lover than a science project.
Ever been so mad at someone that not giving them a gift seems to be an understatement? They might just think you forgot or couldn't afford to get them something. No, nothing says you intentionally left them out like the gift of nothing. Show them exactly how much they mean to you, give them the gift of nothing.
No one likes to stand in the rain
alone, yet smokers everywhere are constantly forced to smoke outside.
So what's a smoker to do when it's raining and they just have to get
their puff on? The Smoker's Umbrella is the ultimate solution for
cigarette lovers who are caught in the cold. The kit comes with an
ash tray attachment and an adorable cigarette-styled carrying case.
Freud would be proud. Now women can pee like men. That's right, women everywhere can experience the joy that is standing up while going #1. What woman wouldn't love the experience that comes from the P Mate? Oh yeah, most of them -particularly the girlie girls. While these would be useful for women who go camping a lot or marathon runnings, nothing says “I'm a total freak and I think you are as well,” than giving the woman in your life a fake penis to pee with.

I like the earrings, and I think my boyfriend actually would like the enema pin.

Submitted on December 18th, 2008 by AnonymousThere are bags is a proper sentence, but in this context, it's incorrect and confusing. They're bags is correct. They're being a contraction of they are.
Why
Submitted on December 18th, 2008 by AnonymousWhy would pro-life fanatics eat fetuses? Wouldn't it be pro-choice?
There are bags.
Submitted on December 18th, 2008 by AnonymousThe nurse was stating that there are bags that are used to contain the waste material that is produced from an enema and that she and the hospital staff considers those bags to be enema bags. She also could have stated that they are enema bags, but note that she said 'We *consider* them [to be] enema bags'. Which means that although those bags may not be labeled officially as enema bags they are only considered that. The order in which she gave the information also influences which "they're, there, their" she used as is seen the previous sentence. I had to refer back to the bags (the antecedent noun in the sentence) and since we are talking about a property concerning the name of the bags we would consider the bags to be a personal noun and had to therefore use a pronoun as a substitute for the clearly understood noun, the bags. Otherwise, it would be almost tongue-tying to repeat the same noun over and over again (also seen in the constant repetition of "the bags") .
Perhaps a clearer example would be to conveyed by the following statements: There is a car. It is red. There are cars. They are not all red. That couple owns that car. Their car is blue. Any car that is new on the lot is not red. They're green.
Note: When brackets [] are used it means that the current writer/author (not the original writer/author) has inserted their own words to clarify something or for any number of other reasons. In this case it was because I felt that the sentence lost some context when quoted.
One final note. In trying to explain this matter in a non-abrasive or negative manner I may have very well made several mistakes myself. Instead of vehemently attacking other people and whether they have a mastery over the English language perhaps it would be better to note the error and propose to look up the information and leave pointers to that information or suggest that the person may want to look up such information themselves and do so in a constructive and caring manner. This approach to comments may add a nominal amount of effort on the part of the person commenting, but in the full scope of things this very concept would do a lot to guide our species (humans) towards a better understanding of each other and an enriched form of communication.
Wow.

Re: ..
Submitted on January 1st, 2009 by AnonymousThe "enema bags" are not used to catch the waste produced by the enema. They're used to hold the actual enema fluids while they're being placed in the patient. They hang from an IV pole about 18 inches above the patient while they're being instilled. The patient is then allowed to go to the restroom or get on a bed pan to catch the waste.
Wrong
Submitted on January 5th, 2009 by AnonymousThat is, in fact, an enema bag. A "colostomy" bag is for those who (for whatever reason) cannot use their entire GI tract and the system is diverted, not through the rectum as displayed here, but often through the stomach.
