I'd say the Sonnet PodFreq is pretty ugly. Can't approach the grossness of the human skin one though.

This is #3.

Other sites are calling it the ugliest but I don't think they have seen the skin or the stone.
Not to mention I am sure this one even sounds like crap.

On the right desk that would look good - certainly a lot better than white plastic. On the wrong desk it would look stupid.

For me the funniest part is you calling it "Crappy IKEA" when it is good old designed and make in the USA.

Nice selective quoting. I clearly stated 'crappy, IKEA-looking". We've already established that it's made in the US.

Moronic design obviously transcends all oceans and boundaries..

Actually, I'm sorry about this statement. I had no idea that foreigners felt so passionately about IKEA.
Five people are in hospital today after hundreds were crushed as the opening of England's biggest Ikea store turned into a riot.

Nine ambulances were sent to the outlet in north London after reports that up to 20 people had suffered heat exhaustion when the opening at midnight descended into chaos. Staff closed the doors after half an hour amid fears the stampede could become a Hillsborough-style crush.

Security guards said they were put "under siege" by customers who attacked them, leaving one guard with a dislocated jaw. The store remains closed and a cleanup operation is under way. Ikea apologised for the chaos and admitted the store was understaffed - but added that some customers "behaved like animals".

Up to 7,000 flocked to the Edmonton store lured by adverts promising huge discounts, including �45 sofas and �30 bed frames, to those who bought before 3am. When the main doors opened 40 security guards were overwhelmed and crowds pushed through, leaving people pinned to the wall or trampled on the ground.[...]

"I'm amazed at how badly organised it was," said Karni Mahmood, 37, from Enfield. "I only came here to buy a cheap sofa." Latyia Arpesh, 23, from Tottenham, said: "I was pushed to the ground and people clambered over me. I feared for my life."

Well, I like the table - steam bent plywood is nice and minimalistic. I fail to see how this relates to a piece of molded plastic with stone texture

In the eye of the beholder etc.

I wish someone made iPod stuff out of endangered species. I mean, for someone who has everything else, it would be a great gift idea.

Actually, I just had a customer in with that thing - in blue - and while it's pretty shrill, it actually looks kinda cool in real life.
