We live in a consumer-based society, where we buy and buy and buy. Companies are racing against our escalating desires, always trying to get ahead of the curve and produce the next big, weird, trendy thing. Sometimes, that process leads to results that can best be described as "cursed" — things you wish could be CTRL + Z'd out of existence or things that might even become nightmare fuel.

On Reddit's community /r/ofcoursethatsathing, enterprising internet people collect real examples of cursed products discovered out in the wild. These things are unholy and bizarre, but of course, they exist because capitalism exists. There are so many creative people out there chasing after your eyeballs and your dollars that essentially everything you can think of exists somewhere… and some of these things might actually be worth buying.
