Etsy Snark

Heartfelt Sentiment

This item follows my Etsy Snark algorithm quite nicely. It’s cute, it’s colorful, it’s crafty, it may be even a little girly… But then there’s the snark.

So when you were four you said you wanted to be a fireman. And you grew up and everybody made you go to college. Well, congratulations, Mr. Master’s Degree, you haven’t saved anybody from a burning building lately, have you? These cufflinks are for the four year old little firemen inside of all of us office zombies.

WTF? for your ear lobes

The thing I love about these earrings is that they’re simple, clean, and exactly how the artist describes them: “artisan.” They’re lovely, admit it. But again, there’s that bite I’ve been looking for… “WTF.” Just like the description says:

Because sometimes it is not a question…it’s your statement.

Indeed.

One Solitary Tear

I love this ring. It’s beautiful. And it’s the best kind of snarky. Secret snark. The artist describes the “in joke” behind the design:

“oh! (insert task here) didn’t get done? wait, i have a tear around here somewhere for you.”

Love it. Your grandma might admire your pretty jewelry, but you’ll never have to tell her what a smartass you are at heart.

I’m cute, but I still don’t want to hear what you have to say

I love this necklace. The colors are pretty and it looks really friendly. But there, out in the open, is the uber-essential message: STFU.

The parking police

I’ve always wished I had the guts (or quick wit!) to leave a snarky note on a parking space hog’s car. Well these cards might make up for my lack of quick wit, but the guts are all me, and I still don’t think I have it in me. I love these cards!

Excuse me, parking shouldn't be so difficult.

The one that started it all…

So this is the one that did me in. The item on Etsy that I giggled out loud at and fell in love with. I love this seller, and all her stuff, but THIS notebook did me in. It set me on a snark-finding frenzy. Because if you can put “fuckface” on pretty bejeweled stationery, my thought process wondered, what else could one possibly do? I’m on a mission to answer that question, and so far, the answer is… LOTS.

F-Bomb Cross-stitchery

Now this is what I’m talking about. I, personally, would be pleased as punch to hang this in my living room. It’ll give your home that “yeah this is my comfy home, don’t eff it up” feel that you’ve been trying to express all along.

Awesomeness, thread by thread

I heart snark.

Welcome to Etsy Snark. I have no idea how you found this site, but welcome! This blog is inspired by all the wonderfully snarky items for sale on Etsy. Seriously. Who doesn’t love a nice greeting card with a well-placed four letter word. Whose home couldn’t use a cross-stitched f-bomb? And what good is a crochet hook without a little attitude? Come back often for the best of my favorite snarky items on Etsy!

Remember, although we love the snark in all of these great items, we’ll leave the smart-assery to the sellers themselves. If you want to make fun of something, go to Regretsy. (Seriously, go there anyway. Fun times had by all.)
