In keeping with TrendHunter.com’s ongoing quest to bring you the best gift ideas this holiday season, here are the most insanely bizarre gifts for the person who thought they had everything.
Whether you are shopping for that extremely difficult person, trying to be creative, or attempting to send a message, these gifts will be sure to leave the recipients speechless...one way or another.
For that couple who is attached at the hip, Fundies are an excellent choice. A remote control spider would be perfect for the little prankster in the family (shudder.)
Did someone forget you last year? Remind them by giving them the gift of Nothing, beautifully packaged (something sold separately.)
Your favorite a**hole will enjoy unique enema bag inspired jewelry (Yes, I did go there). If a rabbit's foot brings you luck, what do squirrel foot earrings bring you? Ugly!
Can’t wait until after breakfast to begin target practice? The NRA enthusiast will be sure to love the gun alarm clock that requires you hit a target before it silences (kinda like people...)
Get sign language for your car with these “handy” decals that express your mood.
Bake some fetus cookies for the pro-lifer on your list with these fetus cookie cutters. Does your kid have a strange sense of humour? A headless teddy bear lamp might be just the thing.
And last, but certainly not least, the “P Mate”. My gift to you ladies, the ability to pee standing up! Wow, equality sure is great!
