Treasure: Cupcake in Bloom

|

It's no secret that all of us here at Vat19 like cupcakes. Just like 99.9% of the human population! This is quite a unique cupcake gift. It's a bunch of flowers arranged to look like a cupcake.

The Cupcake in Bloom comes in really cute packaging and includes a candle and a little flag that says "Celebrate!". This is definitely more Birthday specific than a plain bouquet of flowers.

If the recipient is slightly bummed that this giant cupcake isn't edible, you can buy the Giant Cupcake Cake Pan and make them a giant cupcake cake next year.

Treasure: Swiss Cheese Board Set

This cheese board is shaped like a wedge of Swiss Cheese (clever, clever) and swings open to reveal storage space for three small cheese tools. You'll get a stainless steal spreader, fork, and knife. All you need to do is supply the cheese!

If you need a hostess gift or will be hosting a party yourself, this is a perfect and complete set. The small size and storage space for the cheese tools makes it easy to bring along for a day out at the wineries.

Get Your Sugar On With Some GIANT Candy

|

When I was a kid and would go trick-or-treating, I would always go back to the house that gave out full-size candy bars for a second round. Getting candy that is bigger than expected is awesome. I can't even imagine how I would've reacted if someone handed out candy that is downright enormous.

I realize that America is practically eating itself to death, but I couldn't help but point out these ridiculously huge candies and treats. I am in no way recommending that anyone be a glutton and eat one of these in one sitting or eat them on a regular basis. Besides, you wouldn't want to. These are all so big that you'd surely get sick before you could finish. Although, I love Rice Krispie Treats so much I think I might be able to finish that one off if I really wanted to!

All of us here at Vat19 were totally stoked to get the Giant Gummy Bears in stock, which spurred the idea for this post. If you haven't seen these yet, you have to check them out. Watch the video, too!

Giant PEZ Dispenser

PEZ is cool to begin with, so Giant PEZ Dispensers are automatically super cool. Seriously, PEZ is delicious and the dispenser is genius. I guess the PEZ people had to give all of those PEZ dispenser collectors something new to collect.


Giant Gummy Bear on a Stick

OMG. A Giant Gummy Bear...on a stick! This Giant Gummy Bear is equal to 88 regular-sized gummy bears. They are available in blue raspberry, red cherry, and green apple. Walk around chomping on one of these and you'll be the envy of every man, woman, and child in the neighborhood.


Giant Rice Krispie Treats

I don't care if they are store-bought or home-made. Either way, Rice Krispie Treats are delicious. These Giant Rice Krispie Treats sheets are 32 ounces! Insane. And by insane I mean fantastic.

Shit Bitch You Is Fine Teddy Bear - Brown.jpg

When I first saw this teddy bear holding a puffy red heart that reads "SHIT BITCH YOU IS FINE" I thought it was a joke. Then I found out you can actually purchase one for only $12.99 and you can choose between white or brown. This is good news because I hate when you find a product that isn't available for sale. No one likes a tease.

It might not read the standard "I Love You" or "Be Mine", but a compliment is a compliment no matter how ghetto it sounds or how poor the grammar.

The website says "Give One and Get Some". If you don't believe it, check out the pie chart (the results are undoubtedly from authentic scientific research) showing how much more action you'll get if you give the SHIT BITCH YOU IS FINE bear instead of a typical, boring Valentine's Day gift. Really, this bear could be given year-round. Why wait until February 14 to give this gem to the fine bitch in your life?

Check out the website and read the hilariousness that is written about the Shit Bitch Bear. If you think this bear is offensive or rude, then chances are you aren't going to laugh at the sales pitch either. In that case, maybe you should stick with the cutesy standard "I Love You" bear.

Best Gifts to Ensure an Awkward Christmas

|

It's not like the holidays aren't awkward enough on their own. Most family events seem to be carefully orchestrated dances around all the things no one wants to talk about. Aunt Debbie's drinking habit. Cousin Josh and his very special male friend. The real reason that your brother left school. And heaven forbid anyone mention the lacy women's unmentionables that keep showing up in Grandpa's pockets.

Most of us politely ignore these things during the holidays, but there are always those bad apples who enjoy the thrill of creating awkward moments with an audience. For those people, we've created this list of great ways to make everyone squirm. Except for Aunt Debbie, of course, because she'll be passed out in the bedroom with the coats by that time.

Book Cover
1. Stocking Stuffers: Homoerotic Christmas Tales - I can picture it now. Poor Grandma sees the Santa hat on the cover and says, "Oh goodie, what do we have here...Christmas stories! Wait...what's this about? Why would Santa be taking off his pants?" Make sure you have the defibrillator on hand.



2. Raunchy Wrapping Paper - Plenty of stores offer naughty wrapping paper, but what's the point in that if it will be discovered the moment you enter the party. This lets you save the fun for later.

3. Dolly, the Inflatable Love Sheep - For a mere $30, you can make someone the proud owner of Dolly "I Want Ewe to Want Me" the Love Sheep. This is great if you have farmers in the family, as it could leave some of the family members wondering if the gift is more than just an innocent joke.
