Gifts You Never Knew You Wanted

Horrifying Christmas Gifts

My brother-in-law has done it again. He says the look on my face when I open packages like these is "priceless." I'll make sure to get revenge.

The Moodle


This fine bit of surrealist art is called The French Moodle.		A view of the Moodle's face. Horrifying, yes?	Frontal view. The Pepto-Bismol pink really does it.

The Nodder Goat


Stoned or retarded? You be the judge.		Believe me, it's even scarier when the head is nodding.		It's been pointed out that it looks like our president. Again, you be the judge.

Mingo Madness Whirlygig

Now my mother-in-law has joined the party. She gave George this masterpiece for his birthday. She said, "It was so tacky I had to buy it for someone." Lucky us.


First, the full horror of the thing. It's meant to stand in your garden on a tall pole.		The propeller. The whole thing is animated, by the way. The flamingos' wings move when the propeller turns.


A close-up of one of the flamingos. Be afraid. Be very afraid.		Even closer. Notice the earrings? We can't decide if they're pirate flamingos or Carmen Miranda flamingos. Maybe they're both!

Whichever, this one certainly wins the FUGLY competition. And it's another lovely Pepto-Bismol pink item! Everyone knows PINK is my least favorite color!
