Emotional Umbrella

Okay…

The worst part is not that there exists a toilet bowl mug, or even that 106 people have currently taken the time out of their day to write a review for one (though that in itself is surely amusing too, in a sad sort of way).  I can see that it apparently must have a market somewhere.  It’s shaped like a little toilet.  Ha ha.  And you drink your coffee in it.  And it’s brown and watery.  And…ewwwww.

The part that kills me is the picture of it holding three floating tealight candles.

I have to say that one would not have seemed like a natural choice for top marketing ideas here.

Note:  Special thanks to The Worst Things for Sale for bringing this piece of absurdity into my life in the first place.
