That's kind of neat in the sense that it'd be a quirkly little thing an Epidemiologist would have several of in their office to represent the particular "ills" (lol) of the area they work/study in.

Ha ha, I have an interest in epidemiology and I was gifted a set of plush microbes a few years back. One was HIV but the others were things like e-coli and the common cold. I wonder if they just piggybacked off that idea? They've been around at least 4 or 5 years.

A quick note regarding pricing and labour:
I have a friend who is an artist who makes and sells jewllery. When she's pricing she adds up the cost of the materials and multiplies that by 3 for her time. I follow the same model and have found it's reasonable to both the maker and buyer.
Some people don't realise that when you're breaking down your costs you need to break down your materials. If you bought a whole roll of cotton cloth and only used half a meter in your project you work out the cost of that half meter, you don't factor in the cost of the entire roll. You'd be surprised how often sellers don't realise that.

Geeky sex toys are a dime aplenty, but this one in particular made me laugh

Don't you just hate it when you feel that dreaded itch down below, or when your hooker of the moment inspects you and shakes her head and the grim realisation hits you: no sex for you today, because you've got an STD?

Worry no longer!

STDs shouldn't fill you with shame or... regret. Indeed, Etsy teaches us that there's no need to worry when you get a down below disease, in fact Etsy says we should proudly tout our achievement (after all, STDs mean you got laid) and should capture it for posterity.

You can now mark the arrival of your special status with a charming cross-stitch of the hitchhiker in question. Such as, say, Syphilis:

Or if you've had a REALLY big night out (or just want to be prepared) you can get ALL THE STDS in one handy pdf file:

Since STDs are no longer taboo, don't hesitate to needlessly bring them into the conversation! Show your friends you remembered them on their special day with this pdf of a birthday card that features a joke with a punchline you won't know until you've bought the pdf for yourself!

Consider your nearest well poisoned.
 
Today, I bring you 5 objects from Etsy that are all reasonably priced, useful, and not weird at all.

That Tubman doll.... I can't tell if that's meant to look like someone with poor hand/eye coordination cut and sewed it, or if it was legit sewed by someone with cerebral palsy or some shit.
 
Well, with some of those prices, I can see where at least Chris got the idea to charge so much for his shit.

And since we're talking about Regretsy, I believe one of the most infamous ones was the rewashable Pokémon menstrual pad.
 
Jesus fuck all the vagina items! I wonder when I'll finally see a woman wearing it on the streets
 
holy shit that Harriet Tubman doll..it looks like a cursed object
Don't worry, the doll was made by your friend Abby as it says. Surely, no harm will come to you. It definitely isn't an evil spirit shoved into a weird doll she's passing off as a historical figure.
 
Nothing says "I am a reasonable, logical. and pleasant person to be friends with" like wearing a skirt with a neon uterus pocket on it, instead of wearing something with normal pockets.
 
Why are Etsy ''artists'' so obsessed with vajayjays? They aren't that pleasant to look at and it only makes you look like some perv that should be on a list somewhere

Is this racist?

Why do I feel like the sizes for this hideous thing are restricted due to some misguided smug idea that thin to average sized women will now have to experience the pain of not being able to buy a clearly super cute and totally desirable item because of their weight?

"Summer wedding". Because after meticulously planning a celebration of their relationship, who wouldn't want an alleged "friend" showing up with a gaudy vag-flower chained around her neck?

Also, something tells me the only red carpet that this necklace will ever be worn at is the carpet its owner stained while freebleeding on her period.

Do you like the Joker and Harley Quinn? Did you ever want two toy frogs with large heads painted like them? Did you ever want to pay 87 fucking Canadian dollars for them? Well have I got an etsy product for you my stupid, stupid friend
 
Hey, at least it's original pre-new 52 Harley and Joker. Would honestly prefer those scary frog abominations to Suicide Squad merch.
