Is it just me, or is this yarn a little . . . waxy?

The toilet-seat cozy is a really, REALLY bad idea.

You know how knitters seem all peaceful and kind?

DON'T BE FOOLED.

Today's Really Bad Idea

A cat-butt crocheted ornament.

Looking for a nice gift? Try an internal organ!

Are you familiar with Etsy? It’s a place where craftspeople sell their "fun projects." 

Some of these people may be insane. Take the Etsy user who crochets internal organs…like this heart! Her description:

Show your loved one how you really feel! This unique amigurumi heart has been crocheted with love using red acrylic yarn, stitched with blue yarn veins, and stuffed full of love!

This crafty person ("AnOptimisticCynic") is also happy to make you a gall bladder (complete with gallstones!).

Maybe you prefer a large intestine?

And of course, lfe-size brains are always popular...

Heck, you could just buy all these pieces and make your own crocheted Frankenstein!

Severed Torso Pet Pillows!

Over at Etsy, a craftsperson has come up with a series of “Lap of Luxury” pet pillows: 

“Our handmade, one-of-a-kind dog and cat beds are the next best thing to being in your lap.”

I'm just surprised that the chihuahua above doesn't mind the giant belt buckle... or the severed torso! 

But why have a pillow when you can use the real thing? As my friend Doug stated, “I die before our pug Milo, I would like my legs and lap taxidermed for him.” Good call!

(Thanks, Katy.)
