Bacon soap, french fry lip balm...

Why give the tired big screen TV or digital camera when you can give your loved ones something really unique like Jersey Shore ornaments or shark bite oven mitts? Here are some of our favorite, and wackiest, holiday gifts this year...

Cha-cha-cha-chia Pet—Obama, that is!

For the politically minded, you can’t go wrong with a ceramic Presidential pot that grows a meadow-like head of hair. But be careful, don’t graze at this too long, you just might start a debate.  Also available in lovely depictions of George Washington or Abraham Lincoln.

Bring home the bacon…soap that is.

If your special someone often says, “Hey, I love you…but I just wish you smelled more like bacon”, then we’ve got the gift for you. Bacon Soap. It’s perfect for that just off the farm feeling in the morning.

French Fried Lips

It’s a common problem. You go to kiss someone under the mistletoe and, as luck would have it, they’re eating French fries. No problem!  With this new French fry lip balm, they won’t know where the spuds begin and your lips end.

It’s Captain Underpants to the Rescue

Do you or a loved one often arrive at work or school and realize, “Gee, I forgot my underpants!”  If so, this is the perfect gift. This handy (and discreet) container holds a single pair of underwear. Just add a bit of water and voila, you’re ready to go.

…because there’s just not enough Harry Potter stuff on the shelves today.

If you think wrestling the TV remote away from the kids was tough today, this gift ensures that you’ll never change the channel again. The Harry Potter remote also controls other devices such as IPods and DVD players.  So music and movies are out too.

When the Shark Bites

Serving up some lovely hot canapés? Nothing says elegance like the attractive shark bite oven mitt. Give a gift they can really sink their teeth into.

Forget the Chewing Gum…

Have you tried and tried to prop up your iPod with wads of gum or some other sticky adhesive?  For a permanent and eye-catching solution, the iStuck stand ensures that you’ll never be stuck having to hold your PDA in your hand (egad!) again.

Casting Call

Your tree just isn’t complete without an ornamental presentation of the brilliant and sophisticated cast of the jersey-shore-xmas-ornaments-.jpgJersey Shore. Snooki and Pauly D will watch over your family celebrations from their perch on your Frasier fir. Your grandma’s vintage ornaments won’t hold a shine to Snooki’s red sequined holiday (and modest) outfit.   

 

These are a just a few of our favorite weird and wacky gift offerings this New Year. Do you have a favorite?



 

Everyone here at the Community and at AAA wish you and your family a wonderful holiday season and a Happy New Year!

I think I might actually be horrified at some of those! lol Ewwwww! The underwear one is funny, but then wouldn't they be soggy when you first rehydrate them? I would imagine that's a tad uncomfortable. lol As to Jersey shore, I saw a really funny picture recently that I have to share.

Love it!  And so true!

I don't know if Jersey Shore is a symptom or a cause of the idiocy that seems rampant now-a-days.  Perhaps both.  I have had the misfortune to be scarred by the show as I was channel surfing one evening.  All it took was two minutes and I swear my IQ dropped 10 points, as would be evidenced by this post had I not performed a spellcheck.  Ironic side note.  Spellcheck does not recognize "spellchecked" as a word. 

 

Another irony. 

 

Oh, and poor books.  I hope there's a heaven for books that commit suicide.  Although, I don't know if there will be anyone there to read them.  But that's a whole different discussion.

But I actually wanted to reply to the post by saying that I LOVE BACON!  But.. the soap may be a TAD over the top.

 

I'd try it, though.

 

Well, I do love bacon.

 

Don't judge me.

Yeah, the soap's funny but I don't know if I'd actually buy it! I did see caffeinated soap somewhere around the internet, possibly at ThinkGeek? Apparently it really works too! I might need to nab some of that (for myself).

 

The iPod gum thing is intriguing. Is it a stand that just looks like gum, or is it some sort of Silly Putty-esque stuff that you can mold into whatever shape you need? Seems like it would get into the cracks around the edge...

Well  now I'm really disappointed since I didn't get any of these under my tree!! I seriously like the Harry Potter wand/remote. I need to check on these to see how much they are. Maybe I can drop a hint with my family for a birthday or something....
