To think no one has these in their house?

Currently redecorating (hence user name) and looking for inspiration for pictures or prints to go on the walls. All the sites I'm looking at are full of stuff like this! Surely no one IRL actually has stuff like this on their walls?

It's the kind of thing some people get as a gift thinking they're funny and that it will actually be used but are probably binned. They're so crass but they're cheap aren't they....

I know someone who has the giggles and shits one in their bathroom

GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing · 10/03/2022 13:11

Yes they’d be more fun to buy as a gift than to receive, as with a lot of “gift sites” you get these days

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 10/03/2022 13:11

Students.

Etinoxaurus · 10/03/2022 13:12

I love the giggles and shits one.

@anxiouswaiting

I know someone who has the giggles and shits one in their bathroom
I went to someone's house and they had a sign saying "it's all shit and giggles until someone giggles and shits" IN THEIR KITCHEN.
Liveandkicking · 10/03/2022 13:14

I can imagine the first one in a private space but the other ones are just crass.

jytdtysrht · 10/03/2022 13:14

The shits and giggles one is fine

The middle one is alright

The first one is weird

ScreamIntoTheWind · 10/03/2022 13:15

I stayed in an air b&b with a version of the nice bun one on the bedroom wall.

CharlotteRose90 · 10/03/2022 13:15

I know a few with the shits and giggles ones. Purely because we all have a bowel condition so it’s a joke with us.!

Marvellousmadness · 10/03/2022 13:17

Do you have no humor Grin? It's just some harmless fun . Do you want "inspiration quotes" instead. Or #blessed art?

Toottooot · 10/03/2022 13:22

Better than ‘live, laugh, love.’

GeneLovesJezebel · 10/03/2022 13:24

Do you remember when you could go to Athena and there were hundreds of pictures to choose from 🤣

Merryoldgoat · 10/03/2022 13:26

I know people who love word art. I hate it. Horses for courses.

Sadlivingroom · 10/03/2022 13:28

Quite the opposite @Marvellousmadness, I'm looking for actual pictures or photograph prints, but all my online browsing is coming up with these slogan type prints!

I can't imagine having the shits and giggles one in the kitchen?! But I do have a 5 year old who is just learning to read so I may be biased Grin

They're awful op.

However , I do like the ones I've seen with Bernard Black (black books) lines laid onto a sunset background or similar. Those are funny.

Marvellousmadness · 10/03/2022 13:39

Just unselect word art op :)

Go on etsy

Or check out websites like these
www.papercollective.com/

There is so much cool shit out there. Promise :)

making light of a bowel problem is the only context in which that one makes sense to me!
tara66 · 10/03/2022 13:46

Bad.

RosesAndHellebores · 10/03/2022 13:46

Go to local exhibitions and buy the work of local artists.

I think they are shocking by the way but so was Live Love Laughter.

SlashBeef · 10/03/2022 13:48

I loathe these. The range is full of tragic stuff like that.

Zilla1 · 10/03/2022 13:49

Judging by the stickers people have in cars and what naked images appear on walls in Estate Agent photographs, I'd expect worse is found.

iklboo · 10/03/2022 13:51

I'd quite like a:

'I want to keep calm, so fuck off'

one I can put up when FIL comes round ☺️

charliebear78 · 10/03/2022 13:58

Well I bought a be a bad ass with a good ass for my home gym!
Also know a few people who have various other type word art up in their home.
I wouldn't have mine up in my house but think it's quite funny in the gym

UKRAINEwearewithyou · 10/03/2022 14:01

It's a bit like the

Live Life Love and other such crap that people spend their money on - then moan they cannot afford fuel and food and struggling with mortgage and rent.

Crap made for the consumer society
