Results: Why On Earth Does Anyone Need This?

The Yodeling Pickle was actually thought up during a contest by the Seattle novelty company Archie McPhee. in 2006 . It has since been the source of songs, talk show banter, more than a few jokes and probably stuffed many "hard to buy for" Xmas stockings. The ads say it best: "Unlike that piece of chocolate cake that calls to you in the wee hours, the Yodeling Pickle only sings to you when you want. Push the button and this silly dilly lets out a yodel that's so impressive it'll put a smile on the sourest of pusses. Novelty toy makes a great stocking stuffer or gag gift." Have you ever bought one (for yourself or as a gift) or would you buy one?

Combining the love of yoga with pink flamingos, this item is currently sold out on Amazon (sorry). Described as "the perfect way to add some real quirkiness to your home and garden", this novelty item was available in three poses, "Prayer", "Lotus" and "Raised Hands". Can you picture this anywhere in or outside your home?

I like cats, and enjoy playing with my sister's new kitten, but this novelty cat brush is, in my opinion, just going too far. The ads for it say "Soothe yourself: "licking" your cat is an oddly meditative practice, soothing for you and kitty" and "Bond with your fur baby: Bond with your cat by communicating in their love language". So, all you cat lovers out there, what do you say?

Colouring books have made a surprising comeback in recent years, as a way of calming yourself and focusing on something fun. Not too sure how this colouring book fits the description. The Infectious Disease Colouring Book: A Gruesome Colouring Therapy Adventure is advertised as " 35 images of syphilis, parasitic worms and infectious diseases, you have never seen an adult coloring book like it - until now!" Well, that claim is right. Can you think of anyone would want this colouring book?
