Honestly, some of them are hilarious.

Today it's what looks like a black pair of compression leggings with a hole cutout of one inner thigh. I don't get it.

Last week it was a very strange string ensemble that looked like it was supposed to fit round a penis/testicles made out of the PE bands you used to wear at school to signify which team you were on, also modelled by prisoners.

I notice them on YouTube too complete with annoying music.

It's always selling tat. Does anyone ever buy from them?

The thing with Wish is that they uploaded their entire catalogue. They do have some perfectly ordinary stuff but also some utterly random crap.
People click on the leggings with a hole in the thigh and lacy knickers with a space for your cock out of curiosity and comedy value. They also share them with friends. Because of the way the algorithm works the ones with the most clicks and shares are the ones that crop up the most because the algorithm thinks they must be the most popular.

The compression tights have the hole so that you can see how good they are. The actual tights you buy won't have the hole.

Teen dd is very into anime.... we do buy a Lot of 'bits' from wish. Especially stocking fillers / stationery. Pokemon stuffed toys etc..

Hahahahaha yes
It’s become quite the in-joke amongst my friend group
I’ve also noticed the cat gimp mask, trouble is that you can’t actually click on it to see what it really is

I’ve got this after seeing it in a Facebook group about funny adverts.

I love it as it’s an odd talking point but it is great to hold as your fingers stuck through the holes mean no more dropping keys on the floor!

We’ve been thinking about doing a ‘Wish’ secret Santa
