Etsy or Regretsy? Your Guesses and Answers
Earlier today I asked you to tell me which of the following items are real listings on Etsy, and which ones I made up. We have thoroughly enjoyed your guesses, and the tortured logic you’ve been using to make your decisions.
It was a little harder this time, but many of you still nailed it. Next time, Bronc and I will truly bring it.
YOUR GUESSES:
“Fabulous Felt Pineapple Parashit: Regretsy. There’s no way that was created ‘smoke-free.’”
“Pineapple felt thing: Etsy. I don’t think you could glue shit to other shit quite that good, HK.”
“Pineapple necklace looks like the real fucking hipster deal.”
AND THE ANSWER IS…
YOUR GUESSES:
“If there is a God that feeder is real.”
“The Hummingbird Feeder is Fake. If it were Whitney Houston, I’d say Real.”
“Paula The Birdfeeder, The Garden Art and The Fruity Necklace must be real.”
AND THE ANSWER IS…
YOUR GUESSES:
“The junk drawer has got to be the fake one. It’s like it already knows how to mock itself.”
“I don’t think you’d waste a wrench on the garden art and go to the trouble of setting it up outside. OR WOULD YOU”
“I’ll guess that the fakes is the junk drawer, because it looks like something you could have thrown together in under three minutes and then gotten back to drinking.”
AND THE ANSWER IS…
YOUR GUESSES:
“Nails have GOT to be Regretsy, because you spelled “aesthetically” right, but ‘guesstimated’ wrong. There is no way anyone could do that by accident.”
“I don’t think even the worst of Estiers would make a Rusty Nail Bouquet.”
“If that “rusted nails bouquet” is real, I will buy it and drive it into my heart.”
AND THE ANSWER IS…
YOUR GUESSES:
“The portrait of Kevin Dillon is fake, because if it were real it would be priced at about $600.”
“100% certain the portrait is fake, and I’ll bet that Bronc drew it.”
“The portrait is REAL. It’s an awful drawing of some obscure celeb that some poor bitch is obsessed with and figures she can’t be the only one.”
AND THE ANSWER IS…
Thanks for playing!
February 15, 2012 at 6:03 pm
I am equally relieved and appalled.
February 15, 2012 at 6:05 pm
It looks like *someone* is buying a nail bouquet!!
February 15, 2012 at 6:13 pm
Reading the nail bouquet description, she says “I’ve never seen nails like these before and don’t know much about them.” uh, say what? What the fuck are you supposed to KNOW about nails? They’re nails. You hammer them. These particular ones are rusty, and bent. Do you think she was on acid when she posted them?
February 15, 2012 at 6:16 pm
I bet she was hammered.
February 15, 2012 at 6:28 pm
I believe you’ve nailed it!
February 16, 2012 at 5:12 am
Yeah, her coffee must’ve been spiked.
February 15, 2012 at 6:17 pm
Dude, have you ever BEEN to Etsy.com? Everyone’s trippin’ balls over there, man. It’s just one, big, quirky, upcycled, ironic, steampunk, hipster, contact high, moustachioed clusterfuck. All batshit, all the time.
February 15, 2012 at 6:21 pm
“All batshit, all the time.”
I think that one’s sampler-worthy.
February 15, 2012 at 6:58 pm
Story of my fucking life.
February 15, 2012 at 7:31 pm
Yes, please.
February 16, 2012 at 7:14 am
That will be the slogan featured in the Yellow Page ads for Vagrarian’s Fucked-Up Wedding Planning Service.
February 16, 2012 at 12:41 pm
Sampler, hell, I want a T-shirt!
February 15, 2012 at 6:48 pm
I believe those are the kind of nails you use for a back-alley abortions.
February 17, 2012 at 7:37 am
This comment amuses and offends me. Well played.
also: I thought it was rusty coat hangers?
February 15, 2012 at 6:44 pm
Oh dear. *sigh* Well at least I just updated my tetanus shot…
(Heheh, tatANUS.)
February 15, 2012 at 7:38 pm
You put the “anus” in “tatanus”. Put that on a sampler.
February 16, 2012 at 5:22 am
Not to be vulgar, but isn’t a case of lockjaw anathema to certain standard Valentine’s Day activities?
February 16, 2012 at 8:24 am
Yeah, it’s pretty hard to make out when your jaw is stuck together.
…Or that. That too.
February 16, 2012 at 9:57 am
Awww crap. I meant to thumbs-up you, and I hit the negative instead. Everyone mentally add 2 points to Scyllarus. ; )
February 15, 2012 at 6:51 pm
Nothing says ‘I Love You’ quite like tetanus.
February 15, 2012 at 6:07 pm
DAMN! All but Kevin Dillon.
Four out of five ain’t bad, though.
February 15, 2012 at 6:58 pm
But was the portrait done by Bronc? We need answers!
February 15, 2012 at 7:00 pm
Yes it was. I was so proud. But I made the bird feeder!
February 15, 2012 at 7:04 pm
I had a feeling…. Way to scare the birds away, you heartless cuntscratcher.
February 15, 2012 at 7:05 pm
Ah, I thought I recognized that “hewn from granite” chin.*
*Kevin’s, not Paula’s.
February 15, 2012 at 7:14 pm
I will naked mud wrestle anyone for that Paula Abdul birdfeeder.
February 15, 2012 at 10:05 pm
I enjoyed the general phallic nature of the P.A. feeder, hoping it was intentional.
February 16, 2012 at 4:33 am
I would really love to be involved in some of the conversations that take place in the Drywall/Killer household.
“oooh! ooh! I just had an idea! You go draw a picture of some C-lister. I dunno, who’s that douche on Entourage? Dillon’s brother? Kevin? Yeah! I’ll need a hummingbird feeder and some glue.”
*five minutes later*
“GODDAMMIT, WHY IS THE PRINTER OUT OF INK AGAIN??”
This just sounds like good times to me.
February 16, 2012 at 5:18 am
The bird feeder tripped me up completely. Helen puts more love and care into entertaining us than Etsiers do in their actual products.
February 16, 2012 at 7:05 am
Rolling on the FLOOR – because I totally heard that IN her voice….or, well, more Clarabelle’s voice….
February 16, 2012 at 9:56 am
the bird feeder reminded me too much of the Snooki mask.
February 16, 2012 at 10:47 am
I read everything on Regretsy in Clarabelle’s voice.
February 16, 2012 at 9:10 am
Bronc, I like your use of “mixed media” of crayons and paper.
February 16, 2012 at 9:55 am
I know. She got me with Kevin Dillon, too. Who knew Helen Killer was such a good art forger?
February 15, 2012 at 6:11 pm
Good grief, I nailed everything but the nails
February 15, 2012 at 6:23 pm
Yup. Should have known April was too smart to touch rusty nails. Etsy sellers, however…
February 15, 2012 at 7:50 pm
I missed the nails too. Probably because I really really really wanted it to be fake.
February 15, 2012 at 8:54 pm
I got the nails wrong because I didn’t think they were priced high enough.
February 15, 2012 at 6:11 pm
That Kevin Dillon portrait exudes his very soul. Post it on etsy and reap your well-deserved rewards.
February 15, 2012 at 6:16 pm
Yes, list it and see what happens. I think $50 is a fair Etsy price.
February 16, 2012 at 7:06 am
I smell an April’s Army store WAR for that one…
February 15, 2012 at 6:12 pm
I was hoping the “Fake” reveal image for the Dillon drawing would totally be Bronc scribbling madly with some crayons.
February 15, 2012 at 6:36 pm
More photos of Bronc, please!
February 15, 2012 at 7:00 pm
Preferably wearing his super-special hand-crocheted Hellephant valentines day underpants from Gabbus.
February 15, 2012 at 9:26 pm
What are these Helephant underpants you speak of? Are they missing one cheek?
February 15, 2012 at 6:15 pm
I knew those nails were Etsy. I think April would pirouette off a cliff before she ever willingly used the word “guesstimate”.
February 15, 2012 at 11:05 pm
I was coming in to comment that you can’t actually misspell ‘guesstimate’, because it’s not a real word.
February 15, 2012 at 6:16 pm
You should’ve seen my slow-motion “NNNOOOOO!” as I clicked on the rusted nails bouquet.
But at least I’m not the one who has to buy it.
February 15, 2012 at 6:26 pm
What chaps my ass is that as we’ve renovated Our Old House we’ve thrown out hundreds of gigantic rusty bent nails — except ours were genuine vintage square headed rusty bent nails.
We coulda sent our boys to college! Instead, they’ll have to eke out a living trying to sell crap on Etsy.
February 15, 2012 at 7:40 pm
What chaps my ass is that as we’ve renovated Our Old House we’ve thrown out hundreds of gigantic rusty bent nails — except ours were genuine
vintage square headed rusty bentsteampunked nails.Fixed that for you.
February 15, 2012 at 6:18 pm
Damn it, I really wanted that Kevin Dillon picture. You have fooled me yet again, Helen. Well played.
February 15, 2012 at 7:01 pm
Well, you know who has the only one…. May be coming to a WePay store near you. How badly do you want it?
February 15, 2012 at 7:14 pm
I agree. That amazing piece of work needs to be sold for charity. I would frame it and hang it my bedroom. Sexy sexy.
February 15, 2012 at 7:37 pm
GOOD NEWS:
https://www.wepay.com/stores/regretsy
February 15, 2012 at 7:51 pm
Way to work the Supply & Demand angle! Some call it whorin’ but they’re just jealous.
February 16, 2012 at 8:44 am
Just when I thought I couldn’t love you more, you give it to me again. 25% off. I want to have your babies.
February 16, 2012 at 9:27 am
There are no Petja USB drives left???
February 15, 2012 at 6:19 pm
i’m amazed i guessed as well as i did. ’twas fun!
February 15, 2012 at 6:20 pm
3 out of 5. Not too bad. But I don’t care. I have a Folger’s coffee can full of old nails and screws. Plus all the roofing nails from having the house re-roofed last week. I’m gonna be RICH!! Rich, beyond all you FJLer’s wildest dreams!! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
February 15, 2012 at 6:25 pm
5 for 5…and April paraphrased my comment.
I’ve totally won…absolutely nothing, but I’ve won, damn it!
*pumps fists and does happy dance on top of the credenza*
I had no shame whatsoever when I screamed YES!!!! to no one at all.
*Looks at the overpriced apartment building across the street*
SUCK IT, YUPPIES, SUCK IT!!!
*takes deep breaths*
OK, maybe I should have some nice green tea…AT HOME WHERE I CAN ADD SOME CELEBRATORY VODKA!!!
Yes, I do invest too much of myself in these things. Why do you ask?
February 15, 2012 at 7:54 pm
Your finely honed sense for fuckery is ass-tastic! In a good way.
February 15, 2012 at 11:12 pm
You keep going Mugsy. We love it.
February 16, 2012 at 9:23 am
Thank you, Zippy and Tygerlil. I went home last night thinking, “Oh, boy, are they going to put me down for that crazy-ass rant about winning the contest. I’m going to have a lot of down votes.”
I was shocked (and embarrassed) when I logged on this morning.
The best part of the contest was how much time and effort we (except for those who cheated—boo!!!!) put into analyzing and then debating spelling, punctuation, camera angles. Damn, that was FUN!
Hope this is a regular monthly feature.
February 15, 2012 at 6:30 pm
As an Etsy Vintage seller, the nails make me want to cry. Same person is also selling “found rusted shotgun shells” as a supply for $3.
http://www.etsy.com/listing/90621571/found-rusted-shotgun-shells
Sweet mother of WTF.
February 15, 2012 at 6:37 pm
and purportedly “old keys”
Uhm, no — those aren’t old. I have at least a dozen of them in our junk drawer.
February 15, 2012 at 6:40 pm
and exactly how does the seller know that there really is black mourning ribbon in that unopened package?
February 15, 2012 at 6:54 pm
I wish I could say that the writing translates as ‘warning: contains anthrax’.
February 15, 2012 at 7:56 pm
Step 1 – You cut a hole in the package…
February 15, 2012 at 8:02 pm
“Size: 4.5″x2ish” I wasn’t aware “ish” was a unit of measurement.
February 15, 2012 at 9:34 pm
I love how she had to “guestimate” (sic) the length of the nails. There’s this amazing new technology called a ruler. Isn’t life so much easier with all these new fangled doohickeys?
February 16, 2012 at 8:10 am
Dying to know, myself.
February 16, 2012 at 10:06 am
I love how you skipped right over the “patina” of the paper! Sometimes there’s just so much wrong that you have to pick and choose.
My personal favorite: It was written with a “dip pen.” Reminds me of Dip Dots paints when I was a kid, not of a fountain pen or even a quill.
February 17, 2012 at 9:41 am
Alright who bought it? I wanted that for my Victorian war widow gown :<
February 15, 2012 at 6:40 pm
Oh shoot, I always toss the spent shells in the trash can at range. I have been throwing away a goldmine!
February 15, 2012 at 7:42 pm
You missed the vintage empty Sominex bottle. Go read the description. It’ll make you want to kill someone.
February 16, 2012 at 9:03 am
Interestingly, that Sominex bottle might worth a tiny bit more than what the seller is charging. There are collectors of vintage pharmaceutical items – even ads for psych meds from 1950′s magazines. Items that once contained heroin, morphine, laudanum, and parageoric marketed as cures of headaches, hysteria, and other batshitness seem to go for the most money. Stuff that contained cocaine and weed go for quite a bit as well. Obviously boxes and bottles of things that are now highly controlled or outright illegal are the priciest, but people seem to enjoy all things psychotropic. Makes me want to save a few empty Geodon sample bottles and sell them when I get old. College fund for the grandkids!
I’m honestly tempted to pick this up for a psych nurse friend. She gets a kick out of this sort of thing. But the description makes me want to claw my eyes out, which leads me to stay far, far away.
February 17, 2012 at 11:36 am
Yeah, but this is a bottle from the 80s marked that there were no narcotics in it.
February 16, 2012 at 9:14 am
First, it’s in very good condition…assuming they don’t sell them in glass bottled anymore.
Second, forget the first. You’re right. I want to kill.
Mentioning Shirley MacLaine’s character to sell an empty bottle of sleeping pills? I think a new low has been reached.
If Dante were alive today, there would be more circles. Well-populated-with-Etsy-sellers circles.
February 15, 2012 at 6:34 pm
5 out of 5. Damn it, I kind of hate myself now.
February 15, 2012 at 6:37 pm
It’s a dual-edged sword. It’s great that you (and I) got all of them correct…but sad that our minds have been so warped by Etsy that we start to think like Etsy sellers and that’s a dark and frightening place for our vulnerable minds to go.
February 15, 2012 at 8:01 pm
How the fuck did you two get both birdbath full of junk drawer AND pile of nails right? Your skillz are craptacular!
February 15, 2012 at 9:26 pm
I got them all right too! I almost went with real for the bird feeder, but decided right before I clicked for the answer (possibly partially influenced by the Whitney Houston comment) to go with fake. Champagne, Mugsy and Noey? *pops open bottle*
February 16, 2012 at 3:03 am
(‘Sovetskoye Shampanskoye’)
February 15, 2012 at 6:35 pm
There is so much stupid crap on Etsy. It really hurts my soul.
YOU KNOW WHAT’S HURTING YOUR SALES MORE THAN PINTEREST “INFRINGING ON YOUR COPYRIGHTS”?!!?!??!
YOUR STUPID CRAP.
February 15, 2012 at 6:35 pm
Almost all of my guesses were wrong. Nice job faking us/me out.
AND I GOT QUOTED I’M IRRATIONALLY EXCITED ABOUT THIS
February 16, 2012 at 4:25 am
I got all of them wrong… I will NEVER “get” it.
February 16, 2012 at 9:15 am
Embrace your innocence, Miss Sogenie. Treasure it. It’s a rare commodity when Etsy is involved.
February 15, 2012 at 6:41 pm
I am so heartbroken that the hummingbird feeder is fake.
February 16, 2012 at 9:07 am
It doesn’t have to be. Get on it Pens!
February 15, 2012 at 6:50 pm
Holy CRAP, that second “fake” picture is so full of fail! Fake boobs, hair, nails… too much fake!
February 16, 2012 at 12:10 pm
Hidden due to low comment rating. Click here to see.
February 16, 2012 at 12:15 pm
That’s what I thought, but Bronc said it was a real person, Lolo Ferrari.
February 16, 2012 at 12:18 pm
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lola_ferrari
February 17, 2012 at 9:37 am
Skin’s too smooth and has no pores or blushing, and if you look carefully, the nose in the ‘fake’ pic is slightly see thru at the tip. And, sadly, the silicone lady has a more natural breast shape than Miss Lola.
February 15, 2012 at 6:52 pm
I only got 1 correct. I’m both disappointed and relieved.
February 15, 2012 at 7:01 pm
I, um… Might kinda like that garden art… It’s aesthetically pleasing… Lol. It reminds me of industrial sculpture. Sounds ridiculous I’m aware, but it is put together well.
February 15, 2012 at 7:10 pm
Those rusty nails hurt my soul, the blood stains are disgusting and foul but, that nail bouquet, that is a whole new level of stupidity.
February 15, 2012 at 7:13 pm
But it was so perfectly Etsy, you knew somewhere, deep down, it had to be real.
February 16, 2012 at 11:52 am
See, I figured they were TOO perfectly Etsy.
I also just don’t understand… they’re nails very loosely bundled with some wire. By the time someone gets it in the mail, wouldn’t it just be some loose nails? Or if you wanted to display that crap as a bouquet, how does it even stay together when upright?
Whatever. I’m going to go through the biohazard waste at work and find some old needles to rust. SEE YOU ON ETSY
February 15, 2012 at 7:13 pm
I got the Junk Drawer Thingie wrong and the portrait wrong…but you quoted me for why the portrait was fake, so that made me feel a little bit better.
Sorry I called you some poor bitch, Bronc.
February 15, 2012 at 7:23 pm
I GOT THEM ALL WRONG!!! SOMEONE PLEASE MAKE ME ANOTHER G&T AND I’LL TRY AGAIN. I expected some steam punk curve ball in there and was sorely disappointed
February 15, 2012 at 7:37 pm
I just want to know if the nail seller got the dentist’s school teeth out of the floating baby.
http://www.etsy.com/listing/90615304/dentist-school-teeth
http://www.etsy.com/listing/90618175/floating-baby-tintype-photograph
And if so….it totally explains the rusted wrench and the empty bottle of Sominex.
http://www.etsy.com/listing/90623973/adjustable-wrench
http://www.etsy.com/listing/91595050/vintage-sleep-aid-sominex-bottle
That’s why there’s a box of black mourning ribbon…AND a death register…
OK, I’m starting ot freak myself out…
February 15, 2012 at 7:38 pm
Wait, the rusty nail bouquet is real? And it costs $5??
Hot damn, I’m gonna inherit $$millions from my dad some day!
February 15, 2012 at 7:59 pm
THE NAIL BOUQUET WAS REAL?!? *curls into a fetal position, sobbing*
February 15, 2012 at 8:02 pm
Five for five. Woo-hoo.
Does that mean I’m sane or insane?
Is there any difference.
February 15, 2012 at 9:40 pm
Ah, here’s some champagne from our party further up the thread. Congrats!
February 15, 2012 at 11:27 pm
April and Bronc won’t be able to defeat us. These are binary questions. With five questions, there are only 32 answer sets. Assume all 221 comments on the game are guesses (they aren’t). Complete random guessing on our part would tend to generate approximately 7 perfect guess sets.
Of course, I got them right by channeling our glorious leader.
February 15, 2012 at 8:05 pm
I will order the nail bouquet when I open Vagrarian’s Fucked-Up Wedding Planning Service.
Caller: “Hello, I’d like to do a Renaissance Faire wedding.”
Vagrarian: “Fuck off and die!”
Another Caller: “Hello, I’d like to do a Renaissance Faire wedding, only have it invaded by zombies!”
Vagrarian: “Come over tomorrow at three!”
February 15, 2012 at 10:51 pm
Would you possibly be inclined in planning one in Vegas that’s headed by a Rabbi who does Sammy Davis Jr. impressions and can do it as Sammy speaking Klingon?
I’ll settle for an Elvis impersonator wearing Vulcan ears, but only if it can be invades by vampires – I’m bored with zombies. (And no freaking sparkling ones! Give me Dracula, Blacula, Count Von Count….)
Course I have to find a man desperate enough to want to marry me first.
February 16, 2012 at 6:18 am
With pleasure!
I’ll do either simple and serene and dignified ceremonies, or stuff completely over the top in berserk fuckery. None of this in-between shit. A high class wedding in the country club? Fuck that. A goth wedding? Fuck that. Want a nice simple outdoor ceremony when the autumn leaves are are their peak? Bring it on. Want a Battlestar Galactica attacked by the Borg on Mongo wedding? Bring it on.
February 15, 2012 at 8:06 pm
The phrase “Shit got real” got real for me when I saw the answers. Also when I saw the Etsy HQ pics. And many other times here. Why does shit keep getting real?????
February 15, 2012 at 8:07 pm
4 out of 5. I still have trouble wrapping my mind around the nail bouquet…I think this problem needs more booze.
February 15, 2012 at 8:30 pm
I’m reheating a handmade burrito as we speak…
February 15, 2012 at 8:48 pm
^ that’s code for masturbating…isn’t it?
February 15, 2012 at 8:54 pm
I love my 12oz bundle of food…
February 15, 2012 at 8:30 pm
The one I had pegged as Fake turned out to be Real. But, can I order that Hummingbird feeder?
February 15, 2012 at 8:40 pm
Just spent the last two minutes screaming at my boyfriend, “For the love of god, the rusty nail bouquet is a real thing!!!?1!1″ He just knows to smile and nod at me at this point in our relationship.
February 15, 2012 at 8:54 pm
Hummingbird feeder is the only one I got wrong, and the one I really, really want. Damn.
February 15, 2012 at 9:22 pm
Damn, I got the first three wrong.
February 15, 2012 at 10:17 pm
I hope whoever “made” that nail bouquet got tetanus
February 15, 2012 at 10:24 pm
I broke down and bought something from the first shop. Her stuff is so ridiculous it has to be purchased. I can’t decide between a unicorn necklace or one with a bunch of ribbons that don’t match.
February 15, 2012 at 10:32 pm
I went with the unicorn.
February 15, 2012 at 10:52 pm
See, the fruit one is slightly tempting to me – but only if she’s take out the other fruit, leave the pineapple, put the word Psych on it, along with tiny felt versions of Shawn and Gus.
February 15, 2012 at 10:59 pm
Actually, going through her store, some of her more – subdued – stuff is cute. I like but would never buy or wear these necklaces -

And if this was a hair clip rather than a pin I probably would buy this -

And I could see carrying my sheet music books or storing my comic books (with backs and boards of course) in this -
http://www.etsy.com/listing/30099895/large-casino-tote
February 15, 2012 at 10:45 pm
I looked at the blog of the “necklace” maker… wow. I think I just threw up a little. It is sooo unbelievably sad! And yes, her “work” has to be in quotes.
February 15, 2012 at 11:02 pm
I honestly thought that was supposed to be a Paula Abdul dildo.
February 15, 2012 at 11:06 pm
I think you mean a Paula Abdildo.
February 16, 2012 at 9:36 am
April, you forgot the trademark symbol.
Paula Abdildo™
There. (You don’t want anyone stealing it.)
February 15, 2012 at 11:13 pm
HK, we could fund a return Petja trip with that idea…
February 16, 2012 at 3:06 am
Dillon was fake, and nothing else really mattered to me, I declare victory!
February 16, 2012 at 3:53 am
I’m horrified that the nail bouquet actually exists. Really? I’ve seen some shit before, but that just takes the cake. This inspires me to hit the construction zone near my house and pick up all that free trash lying around.
February 16, 2012 at 9:49 am
This inspires me to hit the construction zone near my house and pick up all
that free trashthose beautiful vintage nails—which may have come from the house of a writer, a poet, an artist, or a doctor, so they might be infused with the muses who inspired those artists or the healing energies from the doctor’s loving care—lying around.There. Fixed it for you, to appeal to Etsy buyers.
February 16, 2012 at 4:12 am
Oh yeah, 5 from 5.
I don’t know whether I should be happy or ashamed.
February 16, 2012 at 5:35 am
I got the junk drawer wrong but nailed all the rest. So to speak.
February 16, 2012 at 7:14 am
Seriously. Open a regretsy store and sell the fakes. chaching
February 16, 2012 at 8:00 am
i was only fooled by the nails, but geez, i should know better by now. the Paula Abdul feeder is *much* too high-quality for Etsy!

Somewhere in Heaven, while scanning Etsy on his IPAD for the lastest Team Edward Shirt, Jesus stubbled upon the Rusty Nail Bouquet. Color drained from his face, as all he could do was mutter, “No, no, no…..” He was back in his bad place.

I like some of the junk drawer lawn ornament seller’s other things, but then, I have a thing for weird lawn ornaments. One house near me has a very large man made out of old flower pots right on the front lawn. Neighbors must love it.

I love how the Let’s Play a Game category always reminds me of Saw.

Part of me is glad that I added the “fucking hipster” to my answer as it was actually read and used by Helen.

I actually got most of them this round
Damn rusty nails got me though. Really, Etsy? Rusty nails?

I prayed that first one was fake. I mean, honestly?! How could it not be! When I saw the answer, my 6-year-old came over to see what Mommy was yelling about. She couldn’t believe it was real either. She said it looks like the stuff they make in school. And that she would neither wear it in public nor charge someone $10 for one she made.
A 6-year-old knows better, what’s that say for this woman???
