10 Widely Available Products That Are Making Humanity Creepier

2. Real Human Skulls

skullsunlimited.comskullsunlimited.comThis is where things go from peculiar to downright mortifying. Nothing screams "I will be part of a future homicide investigation!" quite like buying human skulls over the Internet. With Skulls Unlimited, any weirdo with a penchant for decorating his basement in authentic body parts can now complete a simple PayPal transaction to obtain these "one-of-a-kind" bones. The site claims their products (the aforementioned human skulls) are primarily intended for medical professionals, but they also seem a little lax about which professions qualify. For instance, within their guidelines, a dental assistant student could order some nice head parts with no questions asked. It's even more difficult to accept the legitimacy of this company given the suspect method used to procure their products in the first place, which, once again, are real human skulls. If you visit the site, you'll notice it constantly directs your attention to a link where you can sell your own skull to their company. Simply click on the picture of a cartoon boy casually holding a set of head bones in his hand like it was a cheese tray. If you're not enticed by their subtle offer to "Click Here To Sell Your Skull," perhaps you'll find it reassuring that you can simply email them "a few pictures and your asking price" for the specimen (still a human skull) and they'll make you an offer (still over email). If that's not legitimate, then what is?
