4 Things That Should Never, Ever Get Bling

I don't hate bling. In fact, I like jewelry when it's tasteful - a necklace, bracelet, that's perfectly fine. But people these days seem to have more money than they know what to do with, and this breeds something called "Stupid Bling".

Kendra’s Ugly Grill1. Hot Girls.

While tasteful necklaces, rings, and bracelets will improve appearance, there's nothing that ruins a hot babes immaculate look swifter than a bad piece of bling.

Case in point: Kendra Wilkinson from the Girls Next Door.

This jewel incrusted set of chompers made by Johnny Dang not only made her look really ugly, it made Holly my new favorite.

Diamond Ipod2. Gadgets.

Laptops, iPods, Cellphones. These little gadgets many people can't live without.

If you thought these gadgets were already obvious targets of petty thieves, there's nothing that screams "Steal me, please!" more than a gold plated laptop or a 63-diamond MP3 player. What's wrong with people?

Lil Jon Is Stupid.3. Miscellaneous Objects.

As the world food crises rages on, people are still decorating random objects like cakes with $130,000 worth of platinum and gems, as well as the same treatment on things like cups.

Cups? WTF!?

4. Pets.

"Crafted with artisan precision and attention to detail, Amour Amour is the world's most exquisite dog collar that only the one pampered pooch will have the privilege to wear." This $1.8 million dollar dog collar shouldn't even exist. I promse Rover can't tell the difference between a real diamond and a fake diamond, so if you're a logical sane individual the obvious choice is a fake diamond if you really MUST decorate your pet.

Over Priced Dog CollarColette Case, an animal behavioural psychologist working in London, said: "Dogs are increasingly becoming an expression of the status of their owners, who compete with each other to have the nicest collar and most expensive gear. If someone has £12,000 to spend on a pendant for their dog, I suspect it will be pretty well looked after."

Sometimes I wonder how these people ever get this kind of money to blow in the first place.
