Shopping trips with girlfriends are always fun. We shop, we laugh, we drink, we shop, we laugh, we post pictures of stupid things we see on social media.
Like this sign I saw at the Salvation Army thrift store.

Um…. it’s a thrift store.
Isn’t everything unwanted?

Pinkfang. Because nothing says Easter like a row of razor sharp shark teeth.

This. In case your toilet bowl needs to see a little more action.
Moving on, I saw the next horror at T.J.Max.
.

.
Giant wicker pineapples. (There’s a woman walking by on the top left for scale.) And if the mere existence of these things isn’t stupid enough?
.

Because you know someone, somewhere had to do it for there be a prohibitive sign.

Pineapples. Perhaps if they came with a hula hula girl …

I like thrift shops. I got an L.L. bean flannel lined denim shirt for a buck a few years and a dandy piece of audio gear for pennies on the dollar. I am having one small problem with our friends at goodwill. Stay tuned.

Giant wicker pineapples? I promise to never sit in one, but I do wonder what do you do with one. Guess I need to think outside the pineapple.

They might make excellent bombs for Ukrainians to drop on the Russian invaders. The only problem is that America and NATO probably wouldn’t approve giving such devastating weapons to Ukraine because it would escalate the war.

Why “Hoppy” Easter for the shark?
Why not Heterocercal Tail Easter? Well, maybe not that either…

Unwanted items like shark shaped chocolate and toilet bowl cleaner? I’m confused as to why these items are unwanted? The shark shaped chocolate maybe but I thought everyone cleans their toilet bowl, but I could be wrong.
I love thrifting, I’ve gotten a couple of great finds at Goodwill and Savers. Like an brand new Anne Klein suit, a couple Ralph Lauren dresses and a Calvin Klein blazer with the tag still on for $12 bucks. I looked online for these items when I got home and the blazer went for $85! Giant pineapple is a facepalm and a hard what the fuck are people thinking?!
