It’s safe to say that this year’s Christmas is going to be the weirdest one in memory.
Pandemics have a way of doing that.
Yep, 2020 has been a strange year, one full of twists and turns. It’s a year so bizarre that the holiday gifts should be just as strange.
Many of us are unable to go home for the holidays, so we have to send gifts that convey our heartfelt wishes to friends, family and loved ones.
If it’s the thought that counts, let these wacky holiday gifts say without hesitation: “I think you’re weird.” In a good way, of course!

Pooping Flamingo
My daddy used to say, "Nothing says Christmas like a pooping flamingo." Me: "Not holiday cookies?" Dad: "No." Me: "Not seasonal music?" Dad: "Ha!" Me: "What about a tree with decorations?" Dad: "Get real. Pooping flamingos are the reason for the season."
Stuffed animals are usually happy. But this is 2020 -- the rules have changed. That means snuggling with a grumpy octopus instead of a teddy bear.
Face Pillows
The problem with most pillows is that they're so ... impersonal. Luckily, the face pillow will allow the recipient to enjoy a giant big piece of bedroom upholstery with a giant face on it.

The pandemic has created unique wardrobe problems for remote workers: What do you wear to a Zoom meeting that is comfy but still looks professional?

Teddy bears are OK, but sometimes you just want snuggle with a plague doctor, right? (Please don't tell me I'm wrong.)
Neckline Groomer
Shaving the back of one's neck with a razor is not recommended. But the neckline groomer attempts to make it easier with a strap that attaches three safety blades to it. Truly cutting edge.
LED Smart Mask
Face masks save lives, but they can make communication difficult. The Smart Mask tries to remedy that by using LED lights that supposedly mimic facial movements. It's not perfect, but it is perfect for that TikTok video you've been planning.

Previously, people were only able to judge this by the amount of smoke they exhaled. How prehistoric.

Although rabbit alcoholism is vastly underreported, this book will help families understand the consequences that can flow when a bunny gets that first can of beer. Note: Never give alcohol to actual rabbits.
Santa Beard Face Warmer
A Santa hat and fake beard are good things to have this time of year. But typically, those products aren't made for warmth. This version will keep your face warm all winter long, even after your loved ones tell you "Christmas is over."

Ugly holiday sweaters had their day, but there are other kinds of equally ugly festive apparel. I give you ... the pajamarall.
