NEW YORK — From Mother Teresa breath spray to a screaming rubber chicken, manufacturers come up with stockings full of stupid gifts in time for the holidays with one Web site dedicated to finding the most idiotic.
Website Stupid.com, which claims finding a truly stupid gift is an art form, on Monday unveiled its list of the top 10 "stupidest" holiday gifts for 2007.
"These gifts are so ridiculously stupid that everyone will want them," said Stupid.com's founder Gary Apple in a statement.
Here is stupid.com's top 10 which is not endorsed by Reuters.
