Strange etsy findings

I know we've all seen regretsy.com, but what are some things you've come across on etsy that made you say WTF??

My sister has 2 dachshunds and I just typed that in search to see what came up..
This one just seemed odd to me:

http://www.etsy DOT com /listing/49376279/pin-up-girl-with-naughty-dachsund-dog?ref=sr_list_16&ga_search_query=dachsund&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_page=3&order=&includes%5B0%5D=tags&includes%5B1%5D=title

and this one was a cute idea, but poorly executed. Whats that green stuff?

    That first one is a little wallet?  WTH?

    ETA: I think it's supposed to be mustard.

  • green stuff=mustard

    The first one is very disturbing not "adorable" like the description says lol

  • I HATE.  MUSTARD.

    That first one is just effing bizarre.

  • The pic creeps me out a little.  I kind of like the hotdog charm.

    Did you get the Etsy Finds email today?  One of the first things on there was a Jetson's spaceship.  WTF?

    P.S.  You might want to break up your link like I did.  If those sellers use Google Analytics, they can trace back links to their shop.  I'm sure they wouldn't say anything but they might be offended that we are making fun of their stuff.

  • Why would you put mustard on the dog, though.. that just makes me think that you would actually EAT the dog. Just the bun is kinda funny. Adding condiments makes it real..
  • Chester is going to be a hotdog for halloween.  I think his costume has both ketchup and mustard.

  • MFV the real tragedy about that "space ship" is that it's 1500 freaking dollars.
    panther
  • Why would I need a $1500 spaceship when I could just hop a ride on a real alien one next time they stopped by?

    C&P the link and change the DOT to .  We didn't want the Etsy sellers finding us and being mad that we made fun of their wieners.    It might be too late, though.  ::shifty eyes::

  • What's more shocking that these weird Etsy items? The fact that AATB didn't start this Etsy thread.... Hmmmm...

  • sesh, i broke up the link, so go in and change the DOT to a . :))

    This is still my all time favorite: http://www.regretsy.com/2010/07/29/hoodieous/
    FI and I were looking at that site, and came across this one. I laughed hysterically for 20 minutes straight, to the point of crying. It just struck me as really funny.

    WIN WIN WIN WIN WIN.

    Also shocking - I kinda am in the mood for a hot dog right now.  Or a bratwurst, with blue cheese in it.  Cooked on the grill... hmm.  Toasted bun.  Ketchup.  Oh, and beer.

    Haha.  My ex-H's family is all from Roswell, NM.  His grandparents swore that they saw the wreckage of the alien ship that crashed in 1947.  They knew the guy on whose land it supposedly crashed, and believed until the day they died that it was all a cover-up and that the government took the alien bodies away.

    Clearly.

  • Stacey I've said it before... basically resistance to Etsy is futile.  Just fork over your paypal cash and squeal with joy when your items arrive.

    Let's go for it! I blame everything on AATB anyway, it's just easier. She can handle it.

    And yes, we had brats the other night and they were sooo good! Mmm!
  • Have you all seen "Suggested Shops" yet?  If you go to favorites, the 3rd tab is now "Suggested Shops."  Addictive.  You can delete the ones you don't like and it's supposed to get better at picking shops you might like.
