Regretsy

Regretsy is a now-defunct website which was specifically created for the purpose of poking fun at horrendous creations on Etsy. Ranging from the hilarious to the horrifying, no creation is spared from the unbridled snark of Helen Killer, the genius behind the site.


 * Berserk Button: Etsy resellers.
 * Blatant Lies: Some sellers claim that some items are handmade when they clearly are not.
 * Cloudcuckoolander: Evidently, some of the crafters featured on Regretsy, as their creations can attest.
 * Deadpan Snarker: Helen Killer.
 * Does This Remind You of Anything?: And how.
 * Giftedly Bad: Most of the "artists" and "crafters" featured on Regretsy.
 * Hurricane of Puns: Tends to show up now and then, with various commenters playing off each other.
 * Jerk with a Heart of Gold: The whole of Regretsy. They won't hesitate to make fun of crafters and their creations, but they have helped many struggling Etsyians through various means; usually through their charity shop, the also defunct April's Army.
 * Grammar Nazi: Helen Killer and most of the site's commenters. Not that you can blame them.
 * Polish the Turd: A favored marketing strategy by some sellers, who often give their item descriptions that are annoying, to say the least.
 * Purple Prose: Some sellers are fond of using it.
 * Rouge Angles of Satin: It's "you're", not "your".
 * Regretsy had a whole category dedicated to things that are NOT Steampunk.
 * Wanton Cruelty to the Common Comma
 * World of Snark: Most of the commenters seem to be Deadpan Snarkers. Combine that with a Deadpan Snarker of a creator and you get this trope.
