eBay WTF of the Day: MAJOR TRENDS vest

Filed under: Clothing

I hail from the planet Zaag. Really? We're gonna have to call a WTF all over this zippered vest.

First of all, seller Goodbuybarry has listed this item as "UNUSUAL METAL MASK! Black & Brown WOOL Vest SZ XL." Really? Is the metal mask what sets it apart? We think the most distinctive thing about this vest is that it looks exactly like a Star Trek uniform.

And the mask? Just makes it look more like a Star Trek uniform. Okay, not exactly-exactly. This will have to be deemed a uniform for someone from a planet we just made up called Zaag.

Circles and squares carefully arranged to cause seizuresRemember these ludicrous pants?

Well, here at right, we have another pair. These pants are made of insanity.

Why are people making pants out of insanity? When do you wear these? Do you just wake up some mornings and go "you know...I think it's crazy pants day!" Is that a joyful occasion, or one of fear?

eBay WTF of the Day: Only wear this if you're going to tell me my fortune

Filed under: Clothing


Cult-chic!eBay seller groundhogblue has an item for us: "ARt to Wear Unusual Appliqued Reversible India SHawl."

Particularly in cases like this, where the item looks like it may be from a cult we haven't heard of, we like to assume there's some sort of encrypted code in the posting. Like the mis-capitalization. Put it together: ARSH. That could mean. . .anything. Angry Ravens Scare Harriet? Annie Really Sells Hotpockets? How about ARWUARIS? I think I just found a name for my new Lord of the Rings re-enactment character. Sounds like a Level 7 Druid, no?

And we do believe a Level 7 Druid would actually wear this cape. Let's look at the features:

eBay WTF of the Day: Ludicrous vest

Filed under: Accessories, Clothing

There's a lot going on here.
Wow, Bunny1313witch. There's a lot going on here. This is a sparkly, peach, crocheted, stretchy vest with "lures" dangling from it. We hereby declare this vest ludicrous.

How do these things get made? The listing says "Sorry label is no longer there." Our question: you mean this was purchased at a store? Someone with an actual label made this. . .like this? Covered in glittering plastic bait? WTF?
