I have a very specific type: things nobody should own, made by someone who clearly cared too much. Awful taste but great execution is basically my dating history in furniture form, starting with exhibit A.

Someone spent days on that face, and it is looking at me like it knows my screen time. Respectfully, I would eat it, and the rest only get worse.

Spooky season has clearly gotten into the furniture. There is a coffin you can sit in at your desk, a coffin that keeps your drinks cold, and a toilet seat full of barbed wire, which is the most honest thing anyone has ever said about a Monday. These are not cursed images, technically. They are objects someone sanded, polished and photographed in good lighting, which is worse.

The weird fashion section is where I felt personally attacked. Burger outfits, a pickle jacket, shorts made from two full backpacks: these are weird products for a customer I would never admit to being. I once wore shoes shaped like bread to a second date. There was no third date, but the shoes held up beautifully, and that is sort of the whole point.

I think we love this stuff because it is the purest form of commitment left on the internet. Nobody makes a flying squirrel clock for clout. They make it because the idea would not leave them alone, and they refused to do it badly. I respect that more than most people I have dated, and at least the clock tells the truth.

The taste is gone. The skill is real. The coffin swivels.
