20 Times The Execution Was On Point, But The Taste Was Questionable

Every pic in this list should inspire two reactions: horror, along with grudging respect.

That's because each example is executed well. The end result is, well, not that great, but it's hard not to respect the process that went into each one.

"Air fryer."

Reddit | cappsy04

I've been moderately impressed with my air fryer. Even though it's a simple device, one that isn't on par with a real fryer, it does a decent job of crisping up my meals. I don't like it so much I'd get it on a tattoo, though.

"Metal pirate ship lamp my mom 'had' to get at a flea market because 'it was so horrible.'"

Reddit | AsymptoticAbyss

It's never a good idea to go into a flea market with a "buy now" attitude. You'll wind up buying stuff just because it's hilarious and ugly.

"Realistic bread clothing line."

Reddit | Kdial2002

I'll give the designer credit: this truly does look like a vest made of fresh-baked baguettes. As for why someone would design a vest that looks like fresh-baked baguettes, I can't even begin to come up with a reason.

"It’s ugly fight me."

Reddit | kartoshsalat

On one hand, I admire the efforts to make the humble bicycle look new and exciting. After all, bikes all kind of look the same. Then again, maybe there's a reason that bike designers don't tend to think outside the box.

"Perfect earring for a cocktail party."

Reddit | cuddle_tyrant

The title is correct, but at the same time, I can't even imagine the reactions an earring like this would get at a cocktail party. Hopefully, no one would attempt to dip your jewelry in seafood sauce.

"Ayo bruv where you get that bike."

Reddit | LawyerMotor210

I don't know where this guy lives, but wherever he does live, I'm sure all the neighbors are well aware of the creep who rides around on his sperm bike. I guess it's a conversation piece.

"There's a 50/50 chance I'm going back to buy it."

Reddit | fishbethany

Like flea markets, thrift stores can be a dangerous place to go if you're just shopping for the lulz. You know you'll find hilariously ugly stuff. But do you really want to fill your house with it?

"Meat manicure."

Reddit | dilettantedebrah

The only limit on what you can get painted on your nails is imagination, and also the manicurist's skill. This manicurist is good, I'll give them that: those nails really do look exactly like well-marbled meat. But why?

"These $180 denim boots."

Reddit | johnseri451

I guess you can't put a price on good taste, and you can't put a price on bad taste, either. These denim boots are exactly what they claim to be. I guess they'd be perfect for an all-denim ensemble.

"For your next hands on project."

Reddit | ihrie82

I'd really like to see how this coat opens. If it opens through unclasping the 'hands' on the front, it would be unbelievably creepy. Then again, it's pretty dang creepy in any context.

"This mug."

Reddit | daltonadkins15

The cow aesthetic is popular, and for good reason: the black splotches make for a fun look against a white background. I'd be fine with this mug if it wasn't for the udders. It just feels weird to let something rest on its udders.

"I don't know how to feel about this."

Reddit | DrathNur

I think everyone can agree that Crocs are comfy, but not exactly good-looking. I thought we were all on the same page when it comes to not treating them as a fashion statement, but here we are.

"Why use your driver on the fairway when you can drive the fairway?"

Reddit | Illiubinati

I'll be honest here: I really like the look of this car. It looks like it would be a comfortable hood to sit on. That said, it probably isn't practical.

"I’m a pipe smoker and my dentist neighbor decided to make me a pipe..."

Reddit | Azmichael21

I know that dentists work with teeth all day long, but do they really have to make everything about teeth? I don't need a pipe that smiles at me.

"This leather monstrosity found on FB marketplace."

Reddit | powkoo

I can't imagine this is a mass-produced piece of furniture. While it looks well-crafted and in good condition, it's the kind of chair that could only possibly appeal to some kind of supervillain.

"Perfect for aerating the lawn."

Reddit | xmastreee

There really aren't enough shoes out there for people who are into the whole "chrome ostrich stilts" aesthetic. It's nice to see someone filling this niche with high-quality, fashionable, not weird at all products like this.

"A painted tombstone in the Philippines by artist Jae Valencia."

Is getting a tombstone that's a giant replica of the thing that killed you in vogue now? Or did this person love Marlboros so much that they wanted to immortalize the brand forever?

"Hairdryer that looks like a Magnum revolver."

Reddit | BarryThecon

If you want the experience of drying your hair with a handgun that might just blow you away, this product is for you. I wonder what era this monstrosity of a product is from.

"Boots made from psych ward grippy socks."

Reddit | EpicDivorceTime

These actually have kind of a cool look to them. I don't think they're durable, and I doubt the psych ward approved of someone stealing their socks, but it's a bold move nonetheless.

"For that warm fuzzy feeling while bicycling."

Crochet really does make everything look warm and inviting, even bikes. One trip through a puddle, though, and this bike would look a little bit worse for wear. In any case, I appreciate the effort.
