Hey YouTube, Jim here!
Welcome to Top10 Archive!
When the internet was first invented, its potential was endless and the world was alight
with excitement over the best manmade creation of all time.
Jeff Bezos is one of the internet’s biggest winners, and he found an incredibly smart
way of making money from the internet when he launched Amazon.
The site is a one-stop-shop for pretty much anything you could ever possibly need to purchase,
then there are products you probably didn't want to know existed.
Here are the top ten weird things you can buy on Amazon.
But before we get started, why not become an archivist today by clicking that subscribe

If you end up enjoying this video, let us know by giving it a thumbs up and in the comment
section, tell us what the weirdest thing you ever bought was!

Lick Your Cat Brush Ok, now I know that people love their pets.
And, I do too, but there’s a thin line before that love becomes a little bit weird and I
think this product crosses it.
Ladies and gentlemen: the Licki Your Cat Brush.
Yep, this silicone contraption sits in your mouth and allows you to lick your cat as if
you were its cat mother.
Apparently, this is as soothing for you as it is for your kitty, but the reviews tell
a different story.
One points out that the licker runs the risk of getting their faces covered with fur and
who knows what else.
Another points out that it’s no good for pets, either, and that their cats are terrified
of it.
And, one reviewer simply asks, why?
Why, indeed..

Boyfriend Pillow We’ve all been there – it’s a cold and
stormy night and you’re snuggled on the couch watching a movie.
Then, you realize that the only thing that’s missing is a loving arm around you and you
suddenly feel sort of lonely.
Well, a company called miYan have found a solution: the boyfriend arm pillow.
This pillow is shaped perfectly for snuggling into and it’s even been dressed in a smart
blue shirt because who wants to snuggle with a slob?
According to Amazon, this Grow a Boyfriend product is often bought at the same time as
the boyfriend pillow.
Either these two things are being bought together as a slightly mean joke for single people,
or some people are really resorting to desperate measures.
Either way, both products are kinda creepy.
8.
Hand Finger Puppets This set of finger puppets are shaped like
hands.
So, you know, you can have ten sets of hands on the end of your own two hands.
I don’t know exactly why this product is creepy, but it makes me super uncomfortable
somehow.
How about you?
According to the reviews, this product is actually pretty loved!
One parent said their kids love them, despite them being one of the weirder things they’d
bought on Amazon, and another buyer said they’d had hours of fun with their tiny realistic-looking
hands.
How they had hours of fun is anyone’s guess, but these weird little mitts won’t be going
on my Christmas list any time soon.

Worms I'm not certain how morally correct it is
to buy live creatures from the internet, but Uncle Jim’s Worm Farm - no relation - has
no concerns with this whatsoever.
Disclaimer, again: I am not Uncle Jim.
But they will happily sell you 2,000 red wiggler worms.
The worms are guaranteed to be alive on arrival and are said to be great for improving germination,
plant growth, and crop yield.
All I can think about though is how creepy it would be to send a box of these gross little
slitherers to your worst enemy.
Eugh.
If 2,000 worms seem like overkill, Uncle Jim's will also sell you a 250-pack instead.
6.
Single Magic Card Speaking of creepy things to send to your
enemies in the post, imagine receiving this torture-themed card from an unknown sender
*shudders*.
In context, it’s really not that weird at all.
Magic: The Gathering, is a hugely popular collectible and digital collectible card game.
Since it launched in 1993, it’s attracted more than 20 million players and there have
been more than 20 billion cards produced in that time.
The popularity of the game means that it’s pretty easy to pick up cards on Amazon now,
and you can buy loads of individual cards online.
Taken out of context, a single card with an image of torture on it is definitely creepy
and I would be locking my doors if I received one in the post.
5.
Asthma Decal Now, I’m no interior design expert, but
I know a thing or two about how to make the most of a room.
And, one thing I’m certain of, is that this huge wall decal isn’t how you create a welcoming
home.
This old lady with asthma can be purchased in a variety of sizes and is apparently completely
safe to use on painted walls.
And, what could be more lovely than having an elderly woman plastered above your bed
watching over you?
It’s obviously a popular product – it’s been chosen as an Amazon’s Choice product
and has 67 reviews – most of which are super positive.
Although, I have a feeling that several of them are pure sarcasm.
If old, asthmatic ladies aren’t your thing, the company can also offer you a giant great
white shark, a smiling Asian man, and an elderly couple cruising around in a golf cart.

Dancing with Cats Cat lovers are often said to be a little,
well, interesting, and maybe that’s why there are two cat-related entries on my list
today.
This next one is a book dedicated to dancing with cats.
Hmmm?
Each page features photos of majestic cat/human dance moves, which will light up the lives
of any cat lover.
And, I think even cat haters will struggle not to be won over by the funny pictures that
adorn each page.
The book was first released in 1999 and has garnered a bit of a cult following in the
20 years that have followed.
The creators of the book say that there’s actually a pretty large cat humor market – who
knew!
And, speaking of the creators, they’re actually best known for their international bestseller,
“Why Cats Paint”.
I’m not joking!
Any ideas why cats paint?
Me neither!
3.
Coyote Urine This 100% pure and natural coyote urine is
the ultimate Christmas gift, am I right?
Sarcasm aside, it actually might be for some people.
Coyote urine will make other coyotes believe that there’s one in the area, so if you’re
a wildlife photographer or a hunter, this could actually be a very handy purchase.
Alternatively, if you’re looking to keep other critters out of your garden, sprinkle
a bit of this magical liquid around and they’ll likely stay away for fear of being a coyote’s
next meal.
Sorry viewers in California, the seller can’t ship this product to you for some reason,
but we assume it has something to do with possibly causing cancer..
Since everything in California causes cancer..
Ok, you know the joke would be funnier if I didn't have to explain it..
2.
Fart Pads Picture the scene: you’ve had a big, fibrous
lunch and then you have to head straight into a meeting at work.
As you sit listening to your boss ramble on about targets, you feel your stomach digesting
your last meal and you know that soon enough, you’re going to need to, erm, pass wind.
Well, if you ever find yourself in that situation, fret not, as long as you’ve got Subtle Butt
Fart Pads, you’ll definitely be able to get away with letting one rip.
These pads are made of activated charcoal and are designed to filter your body’s odors.
Simply stick a pad to your underwear and you’re ready to fart with confidence.
If you’re looking to create smells rather than hide them, Liquid Ass is the gross product
you’re looking for.
This might not be creepy, but buying a spray that smells like butts is weird beyond belief.
1.
Disposable Skin Stapler Some words sound more horrifying when combined
with others, and adding disposable to skin stapler is one of those scenarios.
The idea that you can buy a tool to staple skin together on Amazon is incredibly creepy
in the first place, but the fact that you can simply dispose of it once you’re done
playing doctor majorly grosses me out.
It feels like something from a horror film.
According to one reviewer, the skin stapler is worth having nearby.
He found this out after an accident with a metal grinder.
The stapler comes with 35 staples which are enough to deal with a fairly significant wound
or cause a person a lot of pain depending on how you’re planning to use it.
