Orange Yarn Beards
A follow-up to those etsy Bearded Beanies I posted about two weeks ago. Those were bad enough, but sending a teenager out in one of these Orange Yarn Beards seems downright cruel. They look a bit like mops attached to their faces. If you want to get one, they're available on etsy. Only $19!

Tattoos for Dogs
The newest fad in canine fashion -- tattooing your dog. Note that these aren't permanent tattoos. They're airbrushed on using a special pet-friendly dye. Still, it's a great way to make your dog look ridiculous. Link: theweek.com

Pencil Nest Hairdo
If I had more hair, this would be useful, because I can never find a pencil when I need one.

Bearded Beanies
Available on etsy, for those who think their cherub would look just adorable, if only he/she had a beard!
Found this via a blog called sad etsy kids, which is devoted to collecting pictures of kids who don't look like they're enjoying modeling their parents' creations.

Chick Beards
It used to be that you had to go to circus sideshows to find women with beards on display, but apparently "chick beards" are now the hot new trend in the world of fashion. via Trend de la Creme

Sunglasses for Chickens
Invented in 1937 to control cannibalism among chickens. Apparently chickens have a natural instinct to peck each other, but the sight of blood intensifies this instinct. So much so that if one chicken has blood on its feathers, all the others in the flock will peck it to death. This was a real problem for farmers until these rose-colored chicken sunglasses came along, which made it hard for the chickens to see the sight of blood. Nowadays, farmers must have other solutions to the problem of chicken cannibalism, because these glasses are no longer manufactured and are considered collector's items.
