I'm all for creativity .. but when it comes to nail art, there's a wide line between trendy and just straight up crazy. I get that nail art has practically taken over the world, one mani and pedi at a time, but even so, I still can't wrap my brain around some of the totally INSANE (not to mention ugly) designs that have been trending for the past year. I'm talking looks I'd wish I could just unsee. Check out the slideshow below for some of the craziest nail art ideas I've found. Warning: some of these nails will make you cringe.

Spiked nails
I don’t mind spikes on my shoes or even on some of my accessories. But on my nails, well, that’s just weird. Not to mention, I’m not trying to hurt myself.
Velvet mani
When it comes to velvet manicures, I never understood what all the fuss was about. Fuzz, yes. Fuss, no.
Crazy claws
Would you look at the size of those claws? Those are definitely not user-friendly.
Floral nails
This manicure has more flowers and greenery than my backyard. I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a humming bird somewhere in there.
Caviar
I don’t EVER want to see caviar anywhere but on my plate. Honestly, I don’t see what’s so cool about having a food garnish all over my nails. I'd rather be cheap and throw on some cilantro if we're gonna go the food route.
NFL nails
This takes football fan to a whole different level. If someone sported nails like this to a Super Bowl party and reached over for some chip dip … well let’s just say I’d probably lose my appetite.
Machine gun nails
Nails that are meant to look like machine guns. Enough said.
Glitzy jeweled nails
There’s just WAY too much going on here. Just looking at this manicure gives me a headache.
Duck nails
You can probably guess what these flared nails are meant to resemble. That’s right–Duck’s feet. Help me understand how this is even remotely flattering.
People's faces on nails
Ever since Beyonce put a photo on her Tumblr of a CRAZY manicure featuring nail art of her and Jay-Z’s faces everyone suddenly wanted to have a mani with either a celeb or their man’s face. I’m sorry, but this isn’t just insane, it borders on creepy.
