We as human beings have the capacity to build great and wonderful things that greatly enrich our lives. Pocket sized super computers! Robot vacuum cleaners! Jayne hats! Microwave popcorn! We live in a day and age that everything is available through the internet. At first it started with Amazon and eBay. But now any uppity small business can make their goods available; be it through Etsy, Facebook, or their own oddly arranged catalog.

The internet is like a raging party that is happening 24/7 RIGHT IN YOUR FACE. Sometimes the internet is the cool guy that girls flock around. Sometimes it is the drunken dillhole that grinds cigarette butts out on the carpet and tries to give you a bro hug.

But then there are those times that the internet is like the guy that no one remembers inviting, with the lamp shade on his head. He screams with what apparently is joy, and everyone SLOWLY BACKS AWAY INTO ANOTHER ROOM.

This thread is for those times. The times when you come across something for sale and say, "What on earth were you thinking, Internet? Did you really think this get rich quick scheme was going to...OH MY GOD PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY BUYING THIS CRAP."
This is a place of healing. Of laughter. But mostly, it’s a place for us to share all the weird stuff we find for sale, reaffirming that somewhere, someone has thought of it, and it selling it ON THE INTERNET.

Keep it PG-13. If you have the hosting site be sure to post pictures of those bizarre goods; and don’t forget to link us to the site so we can heckle, see the other wacky merchandise they are selling, and secretly order them for ourselves.

For your viewing (and potentially tasting) pleasure, I present to you :
SRIRACHA BACON Lollipops

When I first saw this I thought, HOLY MOTHER OF GOD THEY HAVE COMBINED TWO OF MY FAVORITE THINGS INTO ONE CONVIENT CONVEYANCE.

If you have never tried Sriracha before, get thee to a grocer. It’s better than ketchup, tastier than salsa, AND WILL BUILD YOUR TOLERANCE FOR A NUCLEAR HOLOCAUST.

The Oatmeal has a pretty intense relationship with sriracha, and may have directed me to this confectionary oddity. After my initial shock and awe of such a combination, my brain said, “Who on earth would have thought to combine sriracha AND bacon into a bloody lollipop??” After some investigating into their other products, this really seemed to be the natural progression of things.

Lollyphile also carries lollipops in such flavors as Wasabi Ginger, Blue Cheese, Merlot, AND BREASTMILK.

Bonus: Right now they have a discount labeled “SPICYBACON” for free shipping. Now, I’m not saying this would make a great holiday gift, but this would totally make a great gift for someone, especially if that someone’s name was CELESTE.

You said "dillhole!"
