    Why would anyone make or buy these:

    Crocheted body parts!?!

    I mean, what would a person do with crocheted sperm and reproductive organs?

    Give them to someone lacking them? As a "joke"? Looks like someone had too much time on her hands ... and an anatomy textbook handy!

    The gall bladder has removable stones -- that's too funny! There are some "medicine nerds" out there for whom this might be a perfect humorous gift.

    LOL! I have no idea but I found this one on Etsy today while I was looking for a Kindle Cover. It is a "pee pee protector"

    http://www.etsy.com/listing/74803225...facet=handmade

    What will they think of next? I think I just shielded myself from that with a cloth diaper when my son was a baby.

    Yeah, really - by the time you put that on, it's likely already too late! Spare cloth/diaper/towel ... whatever's handy will do!

    I bought one of these Irish Dog Carriers a couple of years ago.
    Very handy for when the dog gets tired, and needs to be carried.

    LOL. Wasn't quite sure what that was going to be.
    They don't really describe it very well.

    it takes half a second to put it on lol same as putting on a wash cloth or something...except cute you just keep them around the change table so it's always handy... like washcloth or towel would be

    I mean why do I have a cute little monkey ouchie pouchie when just a bag of ice will do? becuase sometimes I like to "cute" things up a bit lol makes the mundane a little more fun haha

    of course.. I haven't had any use for them since I only have a girl and she never peed on me while changing her diaper lol.

    but yeah... it was something people used anyway so someone made it cuter. still just as useful




    R.I.P my dear Sweet Teddy. You will be missed forever. We love you.

    Umm..........Why? Crochet around a stone?

    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.

    So you have a fancier paperweight? Or one that won't accidentally scratch anything?

    That's a good idea. I must be in the minority because people on Etsy have sold a ton (pun intended) of these.
