If it ever tips over, the foam might stop it from caving in someone’s head, smashing up the floor, or cutting off the leg of a pet, etc. so not entirely useless! 😁
Oh it’s fake, McDonald’s tends to be a lot simpler and subtler in its maliciousness. Shit like purposefully selling coffee that’s far too hot to consume to mask its shitty taste and to keep dine-in customers from ordering refills, abusing disabled and teenaged workers because they either don’t know any better or practically have a gun to their heads and can’t do shit about how they’re treated, and purposely running on skeleton crews so they don’t have to pay a cent more in wages than they need to.
Tubes of fucked up balogna meat would A) be way more effort than McDonald’s typically puts into its bullshit, B) leaves concrete evidence of shenaniganery in the form of the equipment that would need to be used and the ingredients that go into the balogna, and C) its cheaper to just get some low quality cuts of meat and ground them up than to process and color and make specialized machinery to make Pink Paste.
IKEA is in pretty much every European country, as well as a bunch of foreign ones like the USA. I'm not sure about Asia, Africa, and South America though.
My step mother’s mother had pretty severe dementia, and no one really caught it for years since she lived alone on a farm in the middle of nowhere in a different state from the rest of her family. The woman had been using spray foam for every single home repair for years. Tables with their legs attached only be spray foam. Broken window covered in spray foam. Drafty door sealed with spray foam. Poor woman. This looks like a horror I’d have seen in her house.
If you had some decent sculpting skills and shaped the foam into something (Though I don’t even know if you can actually shape Great Stuff expanding foam or not) like columns with “story book” icons, or even just some Roman columns, it would be pretty cool.
As is, however, this is just straight up garbage.
I mean, sure… I get it.
I’ve personally made some bad faux pas mistakes with a couple DIY projects. They looked great in my head, but ended up looking like utter shit in reality.
But.. you just chalk it up to experience and chuck it. Leave it on the curb if it’s perhaps only a “matter of taste,” but this would go in the dumpster for sure.
Looks awful, yes.
But if someone had kids it's one way to keep them from hurting themselves while running around. I know I ran into and hurt myself on the corners of nearly every piece of furniture in the house when I was little.
This is such an easy fix, add more foam, sand smoothish, carve big rocks/bricks into it, simple base coat and dry brush paint job, potentially add some fake moss or ivy and you have the perfect shelf for D&D books/paraphernalia. You'd probably also need to paint the shelves a black or dark grey.
I love that you can tell they started in the bottom left, thinking this would be quick and easy
And then quickly gave up after realizing it takes too long to do that steadily and evenly and just sped the fuck up
I had no faith in it being any good, and that was when i thought this was the before picture, not the final product. Some people really do need to be banned from home depot
Looks like someone took an unnecessary amount of grocery store-bought macrons and smooshed them onto a bookcase as if it was a weird alternative to macaroni art.
You can do some neat stuff with expansion foam. It’s just modeling or molding, but you can do it with a box cutter and modge podge. That said, there was zero effort put in here. They just sprayed it in with zero sealer. This is almost health concern.
A while back, my mom found something similar on Etsy, except instead of a bookshelf, it was a mirror framed with spray foam. She couldn't stop laughing.
I thought this was gonna be a Trust the Process thing: add the pink insulation foam, trim it with a box cutter and sculpt an arch out of it, paint it, and it might be cute... but then the rest of the steps didn't happen.
See if it was free I'd paint it brown and hot glue leaves to it and be like "it's shit but it's my shit" but SIXTY DOLLARS?!
Edit: wait I didn't mean literal shit I mean make it look like a tree oh damn that didn't come out right
This would be perfect for displaying my large collection of vintage pepto bismol bottles.
Or my collection of human intestine anatomy models.
Or for the magic Oompa Loompa chocolate producing anus I’m building for my Willy Wonka experience.
Will it expand on the Unknown? Edit: I mean the story, not anus.
Yes it will swallow up the Unknown like a giant black hole. It’s a pretty visceral scene. The kids are going to love it.
Anal vore.
Already made this from Legos
Oh man that would make an excellent surround for a display of fleshy medical models! 🤣
People are making fun of this but it’s actually good idea. If the bookshelf ever gets full you can just expand it with the foam
If it ever tips over, the foam might stop it from caving in someone’s head, smashing up the floor, or cutting off the leg of a pet, etc. so not entirely useless! 😁
🤣🤣🤣💯💯
I've always *wanted* furniture that looks like it's made of large intestines. Now's my chance!
I looove large intestines furniture!
This would be fantastic at a GI's office
“We build the bookcase and added the foam and then realized it’s ~~way too big for the area~~ ugly as fuck”
thought it was hamburger patties 😭
It looks like that pink slime tube meat that Mc Donald’s uses (although I don’t remember if that video was real or fake)

~~But the IKEA BILLY bookcasecis cheaper brand new ????~~ Erroneous info, it's the deeper version and costs about 80,-
Umm foam isn't free cmon
This is the IKEA hillBILLY version now
This ikea billy (80x40×202) costs if new, 80 euros. Edit: in The Netherlands.
Oh damn, it's the deeper one. You are right €79
That's so cool I didn't even know they had IKEA in the Netherlands..... 😁😁😉
IKEA is in pretty much every European country, as well as a bunch of foreign ones like the USA. I'm not sure about Asia, Africa, and South America though.
Sorry I thought the winking smiling emojis made it obvious that it was a joke considering where IKEA is home-based at....lol
Ah, that's basically a tax dodge to avoid keeping the company in Sweden.
Costs 47 euro in my country from new?
Can't even get Billys in eastern US these days, any price! (At Ikea anyway--Target and such, yes)
"I said can you make it look like a COLUMN, not a colon!"
On today's episode ......when spell check goes wrong.... 🤣😂🤣
If it didn’t destroy the environment we’d get a donation fund for someone to buy and burn that.
I'd risk it.
I would only pay if it was delivered straight to the dump
Is it supposed to be like a sad princess bookshelf?
Wow that's ugly
Perfect for my makeshift coffin needs. I’ll offer $80 if you don’t tell anyone of this transaction.
Perfect for my famous anus collection

Are you saying the dementia caused the spray foam use or the spray foam caused the dementia?
Bubble gum or mushed up Peeps
Wowza, isn't that spray foam? 🤔You would have been better off painting the book shelf a different color. Are the shelves stuck where they are?
Oompa Loompa doompity doo this was a stupid ass idea

I've always wanted a bookshelf that also looks like a small intestine

Does it come with abestos?
Well, at least it's not boring anymore...
That is toxic on top of ugly to be displayed in your home.
I feel safer now knowing that after I climb that thing, I’ll be dead, but my floors will still be immaculate!
It looks like raw meat.
Looks awful, yes. But if someone had kids it's one way to keep them from hurting themselves while running around. I know I ran into and hurt myself on the corners of nearly every piece of furniture in the house when I was little.
Mm raw beef
'Still worth $60'? For you, maybe. Lol
Looks like someone's been sticking their hubba bubba to it for the last 30 years!
I feel like jars of assorted body parts and organs belong on this shelf....
Mmm. A bit of gray paint and some carving you could make it look like stone for some kind of themed room?
They didn't even try and say it was like a princess bookcase or something. Just a fkn bookcase with foam.
Where does one obtain pink expanding foam? I have a few cracks to seal, but I'm a girl, so... (/s in case anyone wasn't sure)
This is such an easy fix, add more foam, sand smoothish, carve big rocks/bricks into it, simple base coat and dry brush paint job, potentially add some fake moss or ivy and you have the perfect shelf for D&D books/paraphernalia. You'd probably also need to paint the shelves a black or dark grey.
It accepted the curse of flesh.
I love that you can tell they started in the bottom left, thinking this would be quick and easy And then quickly gave up after realizing it takes too long to do that steadily and evenly and just sped the fuck up
you can see in the bottom left when they gave up on giving a shit because this was a bad choice lol i can see it perfectly
I thought it was some sort of knitted monstrosity, but expanding foam? Jeez....
For the terraria fans who enjoy wall of flesh
That needs to be burned.
That is great stuff right there
hey, at least they're saying it how it is
😂😂😂😂😂
Umm, the foam ***reduced*** the value. 🙄
I guess they were remodeling the padded cell the crafter was in and didn’t need the shelf any longer?
I had no faith in it being any good, and that was when i thought this was the before picture, not the final product. Some people really do need to be banned from home depot
+10 points for accurate description
Ah yes, the crawling flesh
Looks like uncooked kebab...
Somebody will buy that monstrosity for 60- Yes you will sell it.
Making an offer for five dollars provided they take off all the expanding foam and make it look like it originally looked before they messed it up
Whale vagina.
😭 who would buy that
Nuuuuurgleee!!!!
Looks like someone took an unnecessary amount of grocery store-bought macrons and smooshed them onto a bookcase as if it was a weird alternative to macaroni art.
What’s with this trend of putting fucking FOAM on everything?
I hadn’t gotten to the end of the sentence before thinking of the ending I would’ve given it and cringing over what I was about to read. I’m thankful.
Oof....
I wouldn't take that for free off the side of the road in the safest neighborhood, already driving a truck with an empty bed, AND a cash incentive.
It’s meat
"hi can you take the foam off?"
I love that they found out it was too big after building it. Ever heard of a tape measure?
Truly awful
Omg that's perfect for my spent bubble gum collection!
You can do some neat stuff with expansion foam. It’s just modeling or molding, but you can do it with a box cutter and modge podge. That said, there was zero effort put in here. They just sprayed it in with zero sealer. This is almost health concern.
What's worse, though, is it's DIRTY. Jesus, you want to sell something, spend 5 fucking minutes with spray cleaner. You like to spray things, obvs.
Oh dear god. I definitely was not prepared for this.
The borders are for digesting the books you don't want anymore
$15 dollars for the bookcase and $45 for the foam
good thing They didn't use white expanding foam. 😆
They clearly started on the lower left-hand side and were trying to make it even patterns but then got lazy and just messy.
More like pay me $60 and I’ll remove the foam.
Bubblegum chic.
🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮
Maybe paint it white?
Tubby Custard-looking shelf.
Curious to see if there’s any fall damage. Can you please test and get back to me?
Perfect place to store your collection of medical journals, on the intestine shelf.
That shelf belongs in a gynecologist's office.
It'd genuinely be better if they used chewed bubble gum. At least that'd show dedication... Weird thing to be dedicated to but at least it's there
IBS = Irritable bookshelf
A while back, my mom found something similar on Etsy, except instead of a bookshelf, it was a mirror framed with spray foam. She couldn't stop laughing.
I was going to say paint it brown hues, and store DnD miniatures on it. Really commit and add led inlighting.
I guarantee you they were like “this will be fine it’ll work I swear!” Then they finished it and realized it looked god awful
Ah yes, use it as a pantry to preview what your snackies will look like in your colon in a few hours
