We love a hilarious "you get what you pay for" moment, as long as it's not at our expense, of course—and a TikTok couple's recent order form Temu is no exception.

Their hysterical order was so tragic, in fact, that it went viral on TikTok, garnering more than 15 million views in just over a week.

In anticipation of their upcoming trip to Disney, TikTokers Emilie and John Fernstrom ordered some socks featuring Disney characters from the cheap China-based site.

But what showed up in the mail was not what they were expecting at all.

John began the viral video:

"This is why you should never order products from Temu."
"Because my wife here tried to order some nice Disney socks for our upcoming Disney trip and just take a look at the things that came in the mail."
"It’s going to look normal at first but you’ll see what’s wrong with it."

And oh did we.

He first held up a pair of socks featuring the adorable Chip, but as John noted:

"But you flip it over, and oh, that’s 'Chib.'"

Yes, all the characters' names were hilariously misspelled.

He continued, showing first the characters' faces and then their butchered names.

"Then you’ve got Mickey Mouse, he’s looking a little derpy but you can still tell it’s Mickey. But according to them, he’s Miikey.'"
"Next, you’ve got his friend, Minnie, she looks good. Oh, nope, that’s 'Mimnee.'"

Piglet, of Winnie the Pooh fame, was embroidered as "Bigeet" and Donald Duck somehow as "Tonaid."

While we're sorry the couple didn't get exactly what they ordered, we certainly appreciate the laugh!

Sarah Jessica Parker Claps Back At Conservative Critics Who Want Her To 'Shut Up' About Politics And 'Act'

Nothing seems to get conservatives' goats quite like celebrities having political opinions—well, liberal and leftist celebrities, anyway.

They seem to love it when weird right-wing celebs like Kevin Sorbo get on the internet and say bizarre, usually counterfactual nonsense, or when JK Rowling does her darnedest to make her legacy not about Harry Potter but about her weird obsession with trans people.

Far-right provocateur Ann Coulter is facing fierce criticism after she made a genocidal remark in a now-deleted post on X in response to University of Minnesota professor and Navajo Nation member Melanie Yazzie's speech about colonization.

Yazzie, in a speech at last year's annual Socialism Conference, said "decolonization is the only thing that is going to save us as a species" during a panel hosted by Red Nation, a Native American nonprofit that advocates for Palestinian and Native American rights. She also said that the United States is the "greatest predator empire that has ever existed" and said it should be dismantled.
