My WTH moment



Okay, there is precious little in life anymore that really takes us by surprise. But I have to say as I was scrolling through my addiction of Etsy and stumbled across a very unique pillow, well, all it left me with was a WTH moment. I am not mocking these people's artistic talents but allow me to list some of the following items that I was linked to (first comes the pillow though) and the actual descriptions the people who are selling these fine wares came up with:
  1. Utera maxima - Worried that your uterus is too small? Wow them the next time you go to the gynecologist, be the envy of your peers. Why is this Spanish woman so happy? Just look at the size of her uterus! Order now and see instant results!!!

  2. Super Period Fun Time Pinata - Because every now and again you have a period that deserves a freaking fiesta. Don't believe me?? Examples for your consideration: You just had your first period! Your period was mysteriously missing for a while but now she's back! You made it through your first period after some hardcore Uterine surgery! Your uterus is herself again after a pregnancy! (said pinata is filled with Bliss dark chocolate, Hershey's kisses and TAMPONS!)

  3. Uterus love earrings - think hot pink, dangling uterus hanging from your earlobes. Enough said!

  4. Dorothy, Blanche and Rose - Uterus and ovaries pillow - gotta love the catchy logo - nothing says from "U" to "US" like a uterus!


And my personal favorite....



Childbirth teaching models uterus placenta cord baby breast set: And I think the picture above MORE than speaks for this one.

Now the whole time I am seeing these items I am giggling like a 11 year old boy seeing a dirty picture for the first time. I've been married. I have a child. But the thought of a grown ass woman buying herself a giant uterus pillow to cuddle with is just too much for me. If I was ever at my "secret, private No No" doctor's office and someone came at me with uterus earrings... well, I'd probably be a wuss and just sit there but I swear I'd be envisioning myself bare assing it out into the parking lot.

I know we all gotta make a living but this just doesn't seem like the way to me. Knitting a uterus and fake boobies? And for the folks selling both the huge 3 foot uterus pillow and the giant pinata: where do you store these things?

I double dog dare you to go to Etsy.com, think of the most outlandish thing you can think of to search for, and come back here and tell me what freakish bizarre things you found.
