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?

thanksgiving ornament

I don't know what it is or what its for, but I secretly want one. I love all things pumpkin.

Should i start a collection like those strange people who get a dolphin ornament one year, pretend to like it and then get one for every birthday, xmas and mother's day etc etc for all eternity.

Thunderduck · 10/07/2009 21:49

Antdamm · 10/07/2009 21:55

i don't think the words too tasteful have EVER been used to describe any of these rubbish alluring gifts

Antdamm · 10/07/2009 22:04

how about a jellyfish paperweight

stainesmassif · 10/07/2009 22:04

inspiration for the gremlins - there is a whole family of these.....

Thunderduck · 10/07/2009 22:05

One for dolphin fans

stainesmassif · 10/07/2009 22:08

thunderduck - why restrict that to dolphin fans only??? that's positively mainstream. what's not to like? i love multi level multi dimensional art.

Antdamm · 10/07/2009 22:08

Thunderduck · 10/07/2009 22:09

You'll certainly love this then Staines.

Antdamm · 10/07/2009 22:10

the obligatory tutankhamen head ornament

Thunderduck · 10/07/2009 22:10

I can see why that's called Killer Staines, It has a gleam in it's eye that says you'll be dead before morning.

Antdamm · 10/07/2009 22:11

'multi level multi dimensional art'

in other words lot of crap stuff piled on top of more crap stuff

Thunderduck · 10/07/2009 22:14

Glorious isn't quite the term that comes to mind

Antdamm · 10/07/2009 22:14

forgot to say that also looks crap from whatever angle you catch it from

stainesmassif · 10/07/2009 22:16

2 feet high! illuminations of paradise! i must buy it now......seriously, i had friends who moved into a house with the bathroom already decorated in a very similar style - who knew that you could buy embossed dolphin bathroom tiles? you can.

Thunderduck · 10/07/2009 22:20

I've seen road kill that'd look more attractive in one's home than this does

Thunderduck · 10/07/2009 22:23

You can buy dolphin tiles? From where? I must have them.
