Why on earth would anyone spend money on this stuff? And AIBU to think those who do are incredibly strange people?

Or am I just a snob?

Because it's good for a laugh, that's why.

I just can't believe that anyone actually buys stuff like this.

Would you thank anyone if they bought you these as a wedding present?

I hate to 'fess up, but my FIL has a shy kid He abandoned his own children for years but talks about this thing as though it's one of his babies, his girlfriend talks to it.

They are odd!

like how you can choose your type of dog and not be stuck with generic pooch on your earrings, how distraught would you be?
