The Things We Left Behind in 2010
Sometimes things are so bad, they’re good. Well, these aren’t those things. Below, a small slice of the very worst products we saw in 2010. Be thankful you’re not getting the whole pie.
World’s Largest Gummy Worm
From the moment of conception, this three-pound, 26-inch, 4,000-calorie gummy worm ceased being a good idea and immediately shifted into the territory of edible murder weapon. It’s 128 times larger than your average gummy. Or 127 times more unnecessary.
The Situation Shirt
When it comes to tastemakers and trendsetters, there’s really nobody you should trust less than a Jersey Shore cast member. That being said, here’s The Situation’s latest creation: a shirt with a see-through six-pack window. Somewhere, a Hawaiian shirt is pointing its finger and laughing.
Instant Pockets
Fanny packs had a good run, but sadly that all ends here. Introducing the self-adhesive pocket. Stick it anywhere (shirt, tie, cat) for a spur-of-the-moment pouch. Sets up in seconds, and is compact enough to hold your remaining self-dignity.
Wrap-a-Nap
The beauty of this 360-degree blindfold pillow is that it turns hard surfaces (like your office desk) into quality napping terrain. The bad part: when you eventually wake up and see the looks of abject horror on your coworkers’ faces. At that point, an unceremonious firing is probably best for all parties.
White Castle Scented Candle
Attract dogs, rodents and Hamburglars with this fast-food (read: hamburger) scented candle. Without question, the worst thing to happen to burgers since the Big Mac bubble bath.
