I’ll start the thread out by saying this: Who doesn’t know someone who would benefit from having one of these?

These are…um… interesting.

You’ve never used one, eh? These things kick ass when you’ve got a cold & your head’s all stuffed up. But go ahead - make fun of it. I’ll be the one breathing easy next time I have a cold.

You can’t go wrong with **[My Pretty Nose Hair](http://www.mcphee.com/products/dontask/10679.html)**. It’s braidable!

[www.disturbingauctions.com](http://www.disturbingauctions.com) has a huge collection of…“interesting”…pieces for sale. My personal favorite is the cymbal-wielding devil monkey.

I found an ad for [this](http://www.danburymintsports.com/dm/asp/xq/asp/prodnum.45801000/sport.WWF/team.World+Wrestling+Federation/qx/item.htm) collectible in amongst my Sunday paper coupons. Apparently there is a “Little Rock” as well.

Zette, I have found that Harriet Carter has some of the lamest stuff on Earth. Here’s another example, I about peed my pants when I came across this in the catalog they sent me: [http://www.harrietcarter.com/fingerfreddoll.html](http://www.harrietcarter.com/fingerfreddoll.html)

Who needs that type of thing? Why would anyone buy this? Where in the world is this sort of thing worthy of spending $20 bucks plus shipping on? What on this Earth does this do other than become a dust collector?

Well, I don’t know about Pull my Finger Fred, but they also have a few classic items that are sure to come in handy.

First, there’s the remote control fart machine- a blast at Thanksgiving! (believe me- my sister brought hers last year.)

There is also the farting phone, which I’m seriously considering as a Christmas present:

The most frightening part of all is that I have Harriet Carter in my favorite places list.

I’m so ashamed!

Maybe I just have a dirty mind, but, since I’m very skeptical that anyone uses vibrating massagers on sore muscles, I find this profoundly disturbing: [The Vibrating Pig](http://www.sciplus.com/search.cfm?terms=32081)

Some things are surplus for a reason, I guess.
