Etsom·ni·a (/etˈsämnēə/), noun, 1. a sleep disorder caused by obsessive Etsy browsing. 2. The surprising arrival of weird handmade merchandise ordered when one is only half conscious. (True story.) 3. An excuse for me to be an obnoxious, snarky New Yorker once per week.
As we’ve seen over the years, Etsy can be an absolute goldmine of lovely, unique, heartfelt gifts. However, it’s also proven itself to be a great place to get odd things, like gifts for people you don’t actually like. Whether you’re celebrating your frenemy status or just want to anonymously prank someone who annoys you, Etsy is the shopping site for you!

I wonder if that glitter bomb would constitute assault?

I had a visceral reaction to that final image. As a preschool teacher, I have had to deal with way too much spilled glitter in my life to have any other reaction. I think the artist behind the Real Bad Pet Portraits is doing themselves a disservice. I clicked through the link and viewed several of their portraits and I think they are charming and full of personality.

And I’m right over the state line from Alabama, so you can well imagine…. But I truly love to hear it said.
