What's the weirdest thing you've ever bought?
ifyoucantfixit:
A Highhoppin Hoom Dorn? What is it Jance? What did it do?
I don't think I've ever heard of one before.
In answer to your question David, it was battery operated..Looked rather like a giant spider. A round bulbous body, and green jointed legs. they attached to the round ball thing, and had joints like spider legs...It had some kind of a pnumatic device in it...and it would squat down low to the floor, and jump up in the air,,,you never knew how long before it would jump...kind of starteling.. then it would slowly sink down, and repeat that again,,,,etc
If this makes any sense at all....everyone loved it. Lots of fun and it drove the animals crazy...they never knew where to attack it or run....they didnt seem to be afraid of it tho.

I'm not sure how we're defining 'weird'.
Since I'm following the Old Religion, I suppose some of the things I've bought might be considered weird-
Favorite piece of jewelry, bar none. Not visible in the pic, underneath are the balls. It's lovingly detailed. I wear it with a little silver bell. I've not had any comments. I suppose that's because from a distance, it looks like a cross ;D

And I've bought dancing skeleton figures, ancient artifacts, but I bought those those for religious/cultural/touristy reasons, so I'm not sure those could be defined as 'weird'. But recently I bought something I consider weird as a joke for a friend since I would have never bought one otherwise:
