My sister gave it to me and she usually has decent taste! AIBU to think this is the tackiest shite bag I've ever seen?

That's horrible! Did she give it to you for Christmas or your birthday, or just ask if you wanted it?

Charity shop or amateur dramatics wardrobe department.

HeelsHandbagPerfumeCoffee · 05/12/2020 22:27

It’s ghastly.

merlotormalbec · 05/12/2020 22:29

Oh god it's hideous!!!

iMatter · 05/12/2020 22:35

I'm getting too cynical

I assumed this was a pathetic attempt to advertise a bag for sale...

Nasty, charity shop in the New Year. I wouldn’t even regift it.

Ha ha, you are not the only one, but then you have to talk things up not down. Perhaps it's reverse psychology? Grin

loobywench · 05/12/2020 22:43

I like it 😂

Purplecatshopaholic · 05/12/2020 22:44

Charity Shop! Someone will love it...

BunnyMacDougal · 05/12/2020 22:47

Why does your sister hate you?

elQuintoConyo · 05/12/2020 22:50

Holy fuck my eyes! That's horrible. And what a horrible name, too.

nimbuscloud · 05/12/2020 22:55

You’re the seller aren’t you ?

LagneyandCasey · 05/12/2020 23:01

My dd would have loved this when she was about 6. Maybe re-gift it to a similarly aged child.

MarrymeTomHardy · 05/12/2020 23:03

Wow! That is hideous. Charity shop or re-gift...

Backtoblack1 · 05/12/2020 23:05

Hanging.

Audreyseyebrows · 05/12/2020 23:08

Nice advertising. But you are right, it’s disgusting. It’s like a cross between a wash bag and a Cath Kidston knock off.

Scrumbleton · 05/12/2020 23:08

Monstrous - charity shop - hope your sis isn’t on MN tho

StanfordPines · 05/12/2020 23:16

If someone gives me a gift I don’t like I usually charity shop it, after a decent amount of time has passed of course.

Doingtheboxerbeat · 05/12/2020 23:21

Is it my phone or do you only see certain angles of it? And, am I going to get tons of monstrosities shown to me for clicking on it?

Me here is no sister. This is blatant click bait.

MrsMiaWallis · 05/12/2020 23:39

Horrible. I'd bin it.

1Morewineplease · 05/12/2020 23:42

Barely looks like a bag!

CrotchBurn · 06/12/2020 00:29

I would literally, without exaggeration, rather use a bin bag

EveryDayIsADuvetDay · 06/12/2020 00:35

regift to an eight year old.
with no taste.

maybe stuff it with chocolate first?

LunchBoxPolice · 06/12/2020 02:50

Nicest bag I’ve ever seen.
