If you've been following the MTV Buzzworthy Twitter for a while now, you know that I've become fixated on my obsessive hatred for all things Ed Hardy. And YES, I KNOW the Jonas Brothers and Tokio Hotel have indulged in Ed Hardy, but they're only human. (Tara Reid? Understandable. Madonna, however? No excuse.)

Presently, the world is divided into two camps: people who know better than to wear that tacky-ass crap  -- which was created by Christian Audigier, the same guy responsible for the scourge of Von Dutch -- oh yeah, and the other camp is douchebags. I've said it before, and I'll say it again so there's NO confusion -- Ed Hardy stuff is so horrible to look at that it almost makes me wish I were born without eyes. How anyone could WILLINGLY dress themselves in Ed Hardy is so beyond me that I've been spending hours and hours of good time, time that I could be spending feeding the hungry or greening my apartment just trying to think of WHY ANYONE would subject themselves to this dreck. The only answer I've come up with is that there's no answer. Only darkness and sorrow. Speaking of sorrow, here are five of the saddest, most upsetting Ed Hardy products I've found.

1.) Ed Hardy Wine Glasses: Mmm. Nothing says "romantic night in" like Ed Hardy wine glasses! I'm pretty sure I'd rather drink out of a dirty old boot than touch one of these to my lips. Though they are dishwasher-safe...

2.) Ed Hardy Car Accessory Set: You certainly don't want your 1994 Pontiac Duster to look naked, do you? Plus, it might take more than just the prototypical Ed Hardy tee to reel in ladies of a certain ilk. Ladies with standards. The Ed Hardy car accessory set says you're SERIOUS about d-baggin' your look, from your tip to your whip.

3.) Ed Hardy Diaper Bag: Maybe you just shouldn't have a baby if you think utilizing a $289 Ed Hardy diaper bag is ok.

... More terrible Ed Hardy stuff after the jump...

You can't have Miley's actual sweatpants (they come with a restraining order and possibly a visit to jail), but you can get your own earth-inspired sweats by Country Love. (No, not Courtney Love. Country Love.)

Blake Lively, Jessica Alba (AKA Tom Kaulitz's baby mama), Rihanna, Vanessa Hudgens and, of course, Miley Cyrus -- she wore hers in New York City while doing press for her box-office smash, Hannah Montana: The Movie -- are all fans of the comfy/casual line of tanks, sweats, tees and hoodies in sherbet-y colors, designed with subtle earth-friendly messages and cute little seagulls and suns.

And now would be the perfect opportunity for me to editorialize and point out that Country Love is FAR more acceptable than that garish, p0rn-y Ed Hardy/ Christian Audigier crap that's so heinous to look at that it almost makes me wish I was born without eyes. Almost. (I mean seriously... can we PLEASE stop with Ed Hardy?? PLEASE? And yes, I know Miley's worn Ed Hardy in the past, but we all make mistakes.)

+ Get Country Love at Bloomingdale's and Fred Segal Fun, and check out more photos after the jump. Plus, more country love: TAYLOR SWIFT!
