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.

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.

Actually I need some of those. I have lights that have a in and an out on them. With these you can have one power lead running to one light and then daisy chain out from that light to the next and so on so you only have one power cord to run

From Al Gore's Amazing Internet that takes .0034 seconds to use: Male to Male Extension Cords & Adapter Dangers {Credit: https://acworks.com › blogs › ac-works-connector} "When you create a male to a male extension cord or adapter this product will be very dangerous. ... Male to male household plug adapters are not supposed to be available on the market because they can create electrical arcing and can cause a fire and burn your tree down, possibly even your home. My thought is that this is just another wish/obsession some males have with their naughty bits and, like sport cars and wearing pants-around-yo'-ass, it translates into real life sometimes

I used a cord like this for almost a year in my trailer by plugging it into one certain plugin in a trailer that will backfeed to the breaker box and give u electricity throughout the entire trailer. I didn't even have a meter loop and I had it plugged into an extension cord which was plugged into my friends outside plugin that lived behind me. I ran 2 window air conditioners a fan a microwave and my lights and chargers etc and never had a fire or any problems

Have you ever had your husband wrap the entire house in Christmas lights... only to realize he was left trying to plug the female end of the lights into the light socket? Yup. That’s why these exist!

Reminds me of the many impossible “Firewire to USB converters” Amazon and other “marketplaces” allow assholes to sell. Fake product that wont work, if you’re lucky, or will fry your ports or motherboard if you’re not lucky. Post a review that it’s a scam product and they just delete the review.

People botch job these things and, yes, short circuit things with them. Also start electrical fires with them and electrocute themselves.
