… Why?

So every now and then I will come across something out there that is being sold and just have to ask “Why?” as in “Why would anyone in their right mind dole out money to buy that?” or “Why would anyone on Earth think that would be a good idea for a company?”

Now I am aware, there are plenty of people out there who will buy virtually anything. I mean that is about 90% of the purpose of the infomercial, to sell crap to some unsuspecting sucker. This week I just had a feeling it was going to be a bad week, don’t ask me why, but I could just tell it was going to suck. Maybe it is because I started yesterday morning staring at these candle holders and wondering why anyone would want something so disturbing (well, one part of me felt that way, the other part of me was thinking a red candle would have been slightly more interesting instead of the white candle in the photo).

Then today I came across Kitty Wigs. Kitty Wigs is pretty much exactly what it sounds like (well, wigs for cats as opposed to wigs made out of cat hair). I have to ask, who is dropping $50 to but a wig for a cat? I guess that question is followed up by What cat would actually sit around wearing a wig for more then, let’s say, 30 seconds? Though I must admit, the Kitty Wigs did put me in a better mood and improve my out look on the week (of course a 65 degree day in the middle of January, in the North East, may just signal the end of the world… Isn’t that one of Nostradamus’ predictions?)
