This "sexy girl" doorstop is so trashy! I don't need to explain why, as I figure the outline of a girl in the doggie-style position makes it pretty obvious. Would the type of person that would like this even use a doorstop?

After showing you this stupid doorstop, I'd like to redeem myself and show you a pretty darn cool (non "sexy") doorstop. Check out the Golfer's Doorstop! It comes with a golf ball so you can start practicing your putting skills immediately...while keeping a door propped open.

Those with weak stomachs, look away! Well, I guess it's too late. You've already seen the toilet-shaped mug that looks like it has, well, you-know in it.

This is one of those things that completely grosses me out, and yet I can't stop looking at it. I mean, it's kind of funny, but in a really cheap gag gift kind of way. And in this case, I mean "gag" literally. Just too gross for me.

It grosses me out almost as much as that stomach-churning "coffee" scene from the second Austin Powers movie. If you don't know what I'm talking about, consider yourself lucky.

This 1950s Candy Gift Box would be an awesome gift for any baby boomer you know with a sweet tooth. It features tons of different candies from the 50s. Some of them I've heard of and are still around today - Chuckles, Mike & Ike's, Sugar Daddy Pops. Others...sound a little interesting. Violet or teaberry gum, anyone?

Tons of other candy boxes are available, including decade-themed ones from the 40s to the 90s. There's even a "vintage" one with candies from the 1800s (ever had a Squirrel Nut Zipper?). It's a delicious way to relive your childhood and maybe even experience the childhoods of your parents or grandparents!

Seriously folks, what is the deal with the bacon phenomenon? There's bacon wallets, bacon socks, bacon bubble gum, bacon bandages, gummy bacon. There's even a bacon AK-47 out there somewhere. Why?

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for quirky stuff and fun gag gifts. And these Bacon-Flavored Jelly Beans would probably be a funny gift for the bacon-lover in your life. But then I read one of the consumer comments:

"...these taste nothing like bacon. More like ashtray and refried beans."

Gross. That's just gross.

You know what's not gross, but is instead a quirky and fun gag gift that in fact tastes delicious? Vat19's Giant Gummy Bear on a Stick, that's what.

OK, so I get that this is a joke. And just in case I didn't, the manufacturer posted a nice note on the box: "REAL babies should NEVER smoke! Ceramic babies smoking, on the other hand, are strangely appealing."

Really? To who? Who finds ceramic smoking babies appealing? If I walked into someone's house and found a ceramic smoking baby on their mantel, I'd be freaked out. I mean, that's a pretty twisted sense of humor. It's one thing to just see the ceramic smoking baby and think it's funny, but it's another thing entirely to actually purchase it and then display it in your home or office.

But hey, if this is your thing, far be it from me to deny you the details. The 2-3/4"-tall Smoking Baby comes with 10 "Li'l Smokes", which are actually just unscented incense wrapped in paper.

Is it me, or is "unscented incense" an oxymoron?

Does the world really need more fart sounds? Whether the sound is real or fake, I think not. I'd obviously rather spend $7.99 on something else. Kids, don't spend your allowance on this stupid toy.

About a month ago, I was taking a tour a at the Anheuser-Busch Brewery here in St. Louis, and some kid (I don't know why a kid was there. Kids don't want to hear about beechwood aging and hops.) walked by a group of us and played a fart machine while his friend walked by about 10 feet behind him laughing. Good one, kids. Like that one's never been done before.

This idiot of a kid didn't use a Gas-O-Matic, but I imagine he probably has one at home. He probably also stocked up on the extra sphincters. Yes, those are available.

The manufacturer says that "this realistic-sounding flatulence imtitator makes people think you really let one fly." Well isn't that wonderful news? By the way, that spelling error for "imitator" is actually on their webpage like that. Nice job, fake fart toy website creators.
