My friend's birthday is coming up. We always get absolutely bloody horribly ugly stuff for one another's birthdays. Last year I bought him a doll with a porcelain face and the body of a bear, with massive fake eyelashes. It was disgusting.
Would prefer second hand on ebay. I was outbid on a horrible nylon pair of Charles and Di commemorative wedding knickers. Angry
Anyone wanna help me?

What you need, is a turkey teddy. Sadly, I think they are seasonal.

You sound brilliant, please let me know what you come up with!

Ha! Thanks. Right, a turkey teddy you say? As in, a plush toy of a turkey? Ooooh I bet the throaty hangdown bits look like testicles...

Printed meggings. What size is he? Does he like cats?

WhoGivesADamnForAFlakeyBandit · 04/02/2019 21:03

Or face socks.

No no, a teddy made of actual turkey. Or any other raw meat you choose.

I’ll see if I can find a photo, you can thank me later.

There are some hideous taxidermy frogs on eBay.

BifsWif · 04/02/2019 21:06

Ta-da!

BifsWif, oh my fucking god! What the actual fucking fuck. Hilarious and utterly disturbing all in one.

BifsWif · 04/02/2019 21:11

Gross isn’t it?

My work here is done Grin

What I'm more worried about is how you know these even exist Bifs ShockGrin

BifsWif · 04/02/2019 21:19

No comment....

I saw a Facebook post doing the rounds before Christmas, and it’s stayed with me ever since. Envy.

Please do this as a 'sweet treat' 'jigsaw' Peppa......

I was just reading another thread and the image of those raw skinned boned arms and legs popped into my head...yuck!

EdtheBear · 04/02/2019 21:23

BifsWif would you actually cook them??
I can't believe what I've just seen.

AnchorDownDeepBreath · 04/02/2019 21:26

The turkey teddy isn't real sadly, but it's beautifully gross Grin

Rtmhwales · 04/02/2019 21:27

@BifsWif the Facebook post was just a viral joke. Nobody makes the teddies. It was a one off made by an artist for an art show. Still gross, but less traumatizing.

BifsWif · 04/02/2019 21:29

I had heard that actually, and breathed a sigh of relief!

Bringbackthestripes · 04/02/2019 21:33

This is delightful, the ring detail is stunning Grin
