things that you love wholly or mostly because they are hideous and damn near unlovable?
i get enchanted like this all the time, currently by a pair of adult size footie pajamas. cheap navy blue fleece, faded looking moon and stars print, so big that i could probably fit a Laker girl in here with me. surely would have ended a friendship if i'd received this ugly jumper as a gift. but my aunt dug them out of a box of random shit that she buys on sale, and it was love at first sight! very tempted to ebay some of those ass flap long-johns.
Loads of things! i've got a pea-green, deep-pile fuzzy coat that makes me look like a slightly plump Muppet. Never fails to get a "That's an eyesore" comment whenever i wear it. Makes me giggle every time. i love it because of it's ridiculousness. Also love the architecture of eyesore excessive freeway on and off-ramps crowded together, ugly looking donuts, stupid holiday-themed socks and industrial areas. Not a big fan of ugly sweaters that are popular these days with the hipsters though. Although i do admire the woman who started her own gem sweater traveling museum.

http://www.pajamacity.com I got a matching set of blue fleece, drop seat footy jammies for Mercnbeth for Christmas. Fortunately, they still lubs me. [:D]
ETA- forgot to answer the OP's question. Oh yeah! From my neon pink, green, and yellow sneakers to picking out the plainest, most unlovable-looking crested gecko in the pet store to bring home with me. [:)]

Let me know if you do. Those would come in handy when I move to Alaska.
