The universe is full of stuff. And some stuff is certainly more useful and more necessary than others. There are things that we need and have, then there’s stuff that we know we need, but don’t have, and then there’s stuff we know we don’t need.

But wait, there’s more. There’s also a fourth category—the stuff we are certain nobody on this planet really needs but for some reason exists. This is what Twitter has been discussing in a recent viral trend under the hashtag #StuffThatShouldNotExist.

Recently people started naming things that should not exist, but for some unknown reason are a thing. Besides all those taking a jab at Twitter’s image centering AI and everything that is wrong with the world, they have also shared pictures of things like carpets in bathrooms, Nicholas cage sequin pillows, and everything else that is either creepy, ugly or just plain useless.

Bored Panda has compiled a list of some of the best entries in this new challenge, which you can peruse below. And while you’re doing that, why not also leave an upvote and comment under the ones you enjoyed the most!

These are illegal in Korea. (Still many people use them, but they're urged to replace them)

I think these are cool. Creepy toys aren't a bad thing, people. They aren't meant for little kids who'd be scared by them. Also, way less scary than some dolls...Like the clown from Poltergeist, lol.

Some of you are confused: They are talking about "Swedish Fish" the candy. The filling is candy Swedish Fish.

I'm from Sweden and I have to say that NO ONE here has ever heard of Swedish fish. Only learned about it when I went to the USA.

Swedish Fish is a sweet candy flavor in Sweden. Unrelated to fish!

I'm a Swede and I've never seen or heard of them! The name 'Swedish Fish' relates to winegums manufactured primarily for the American market.

The chocolate hazelnut Oreos are good, although the filling tastes nothing like Nutella.

I had to look this up because I was curious. They are a sugary treat that was supposedly developed by the Swedish candy company Malaco in the late 1950s for the US market. Malaco was looking to expand into the U.S. market with its line of licorice and starch-based candies. Malaco shaped the candies like little fish in honour of Sweden's fishing industry. Swedish fish don't contain gelatin so they can be eaten by vegetarians. I personally think they taste like candle wax, but that's just me.

Green tea isn't bad in sweets, in fact, I like it, it's pretty common in Korea (and maybe other east Asian countries too). It's not even nonsensical, I mean cocoa is bitter too, after all.

What is this eldritch monstrosity? Also, I tried a Swedish Fish once and the taste was something akin to eating a wax candle (disclaimer: I have never taken a giant chomp out of a wax candle, but I'm sure that their texture and taste would be similar to Swedish fish).

I bought my dad a pen holder many moons ago which was a man bent over with his pants down. You put the pen in its butt and the man lifts his head and moans in many different ways.
