Ding!
Time for Round Two!
Have your eyes fully recovered from the onslaught of ugliness of Round One?
Buck up little soldier, because here comes some more:
from Megan
Though he was able to eventually find work as a table lamp, Clancy never got over the bitter sting of being rejected as a member of the carousel, and spent his days fixing anyone who walked by with an icy glare.
from Brittany
Here’s a new twist on the classic leg lamp. Cast your vote today!
(I really can’t imagine fumbling around in the dark trying to switch this thing on, hand running up and down the yellowing cast, blurgh!)
from Juliette
And you thought ONE creepy baby from yesterday was bad? How about twin zombie babies? They are coming to harvest your soul with the help of their renegade pack of zoo animals and one inappropriately seductive bunny.
from Danielle
Are you a messy crafter? Here’s a helpful hint! Try disguising your drips and drops of wood glue by stapling a teddy bear and some fake bees to your project and calling it “honey!” No one will be the wiser!
from Sara and Stacy
You cannot hot glue pom-pom trim to an apple basket and call it a lampshade. Well, I guess you can, but you can’t do that and get to call it cute. But you know what you can call? The fire department, when this ill-conceived fire-hazard goes up in flames.
from Michelle
Sure, you may have heard of Thor, God of Thunder, but what about his brother Thornton, God of Protecting Yourself from Eyestrain by Using a Suitable Light Source? He doesn’t get near enough credit.

September 6, 2011 at 7:29 PMThat bunny on the creeptastic baby lamp looks like Burt Reynolds on a bear skin rug. EW!

September 6, 2011 at 7:30 PMI think I may have some unresolved issues with baby-shaped lamps. Those seem to terrify me the most.

September 6, 2011 at 7:36 PMActually, am digging on the quasi-viking lamp.

September 6, 2011 at 7:58 PMLMAO! Innapropriate seductive bunny. Hopefully the lady that has the masterbating bears doesn’t get upset again!!!

September 6, 2011 at 8:00 PMthe unicorn almost made me jump out of my chair — that is awesomely bad.

September 6, 2011 at 8:15 PMOh man I thought that the cast one was bad. I mean have you ever been in the doctors room when they take somebody’s cast off. Uggh that smell. Then I saw the “Hey how R U doin…” Bunny & I lost it. That is too funny.

September 6, 2011 at 8:29 PMOh, they just keep getting better.. (or worse…??? : )
& I am waiting for the submission of “Teddy Bear holding himself” : )
Thanks for sharing these… good for a laugh all day long.. : )

September 6, 2011 at 8:38 PMWow, these posts are so cool! Love your hilariouse comments. I voted for the unfortunately not cast away cast this time 🙂
Hellohello baby
September 6, 2011 at 8:42 PMYou crack me up with your brilliant coments! I am going for the zombie babylamp this time. The broken leg is so horrible, I wont even call it a bad lamp.
Lisa
September 6, 2011 at 9:08 PMThe cast lamp is the one that made me cringe, so that got my vote. I don’t even want to know the story behind that one!
The little apple basket one is kind of cute, even if it is waiting for a fire to happen.

September 6, 2011 at 9:30 PMOkay, that was way too hard to choose! They were ALL horrible! Where do people find these things?!!!!
Erin
September 6, 2011 at 9:44 PMFabulous!! The “inappropriately seductive bunny” made me laugh out loud.
Laura
September 6, 2011 at 11:34 PMI’m not sure what I was laughing at more – the lamps or your comments! Had to do a double take on that “inappropriately seductive bunny”. LMAO! I still think the deer lamp from yesterday gets its though! 😉
Marti
September 7, 2011 at 12:50 AMOooh, it’s getting harder to choose. I had no idea there were so many really ugly lamps.

September 7, 2011 at 1:40 AMMy eyes! My eyes! Make it stop, for the love of God, make it stop!
Melanie
September 7, 2011 at 2:32 AMOk, that unicorn gave me the chills, but the leg lamp is so much uglier. I kinda like that psuedo viking too.

September 7, 2011 at 2:40 AMAnd to think that these lamps were once (or maybe still are…) proudly displayed on someone’s dresser or end table. I wonder if the same person owns both the deer lamp and the cast. (Both are a little too creepy for words.)

September 7, 2011 at 3:24 AMHaving broken my foot in January the cast lamp really struck me as THE ugliest lamp EVERRRR! I only had mine on for a week (had to be taken off cuz it was on too tight) and it STUNK big time after only that little while! This is SO gross! But there are certainly other contenders for ugliest on Round one and two. OK, so here’s the thing: We get all these horrid lamps together and burn them in a HUGE fire never to bother us again! Right? Who thinks these designs up anyway?!?!?!?! Yikes!

September 7, 2011 at 3:49 AMI am dying laughing! I can’t get over these lamps and your commentary! BAHAHA!!!

a happy little life
September 7, 2011 at 5:22 AMI missed the “inappropriately seductive bunny” and had to go back up and look again…. hahahahaha creeeeeepy baby lamps! Burt Reynolds! Snort!
The ‘cast lamp’ my first thought… when the light bulb heats up will the leg start smelling like a dirty funky cast? Seriously I gagged.
Meg and Mum's
September 7, 2011 at 6:28 AMOh dear Jesus, where do I begin! To choose, I had to think of which one would be worse sleeping next to. It’s definitely the autographed cast. Brrr… But the Teddy with the bumblebees came might close!
wonderwhatif
September 7, 2011 at 2:23 PMI may be crazy, but with a new lampshade I could really love Muscular Viking as my own!

September 7, 2011 at 12:31 PMLook how the elephant is watching the bunny.
mollysusie
September 7, 2011 at 2:22 PMUg, I’m with everyone else choosing the cast lamp based on what *must* be the worst smell when the light bulb heats up. And, um … I kind of like the viking lamp. “Behold the power of my light!”

September 7, 2011 at 2:54 PMI hate all of them, but I can probably see the broken leg in my son’s room, I think it might be popular with boys. But that unicorn lamp is awful. Couldn’t see that no where near my house… LOL
