No, Mike, that was me -- revisit the site, and look at comment #4. :-)
Looking at the site again, I was struck by the similarity between the first name of the creator of that abomination (Feruccio) and the German word verrueckt (German v is pronounced like English f).
Verrueckt means "crazy".
I'm sure that's just a coincidence.

Agreed. But in this case it should be retroactive.

OK, that piece gives the word "butt-ugly" a bad name. Who thought *that* was a good idea?

It looks to me like a very clumsy and laboured attempt to be witty and attract attention.
But then there's plenty of that about in other spheres of activity.

And somebody apparently is mass producing them for sale. So much for the Italians as arbiters of style.

Exactly. It's like one of those NEXT BIG THING ideas you get when you're three sheets to the wind one night and brainstorming with your equally drunk buddies, write it down, and the next morning you're saying, WTF?! Usually these things are self-censored before going into production.

Over the years I've found that some folks have amazingly low taste, and enough money to prove it!!

I'm remembering my first big project, doing trim in a $3,000,000 house. The basement was a full bar. I asked if the outlet over the bar was for a TV.
"Nope. A big-screen TV goes on the other wall."
"What's the outlet for, then?"
"Oh, that's for the stuffed buffalo head. It's eyes light up."
Suddenly the chandelier made out of a wagon wheel and Winchester rifles didn't seem so bad....
