Yeah, I wondered why there were so many "next" posts that had so few comments. What, I'm supposed to look at the dates? <i>Pfftttt!</i>. Besides, Twilight-painted sneakers wouldn't exactly be outdated now. Craziness has no season! Hi, Postmenopaws!!!! Yeah, I wondered why there were so many “next” posts that had so few comments.

With April being in Finlandia, it's understandable that things might work a little differently from normal. I actually like it this way. Gives perspective...and more dorkwads to laugh it who may have flounced since then. I’m feeling all nostalgic, what with these two year old posts still attached to their subject.

Isn't what I did the same thing almost? I mean it required tape and a box all that stuff, just like giftwrapping would. How stupid!

Why not get out your marker set and infringe on someone's copyright? Then you could charge at least $125 for it.

I'm thinking either extremely poor tastes or they just don't care. Or, maybe they're easily distracted by shiny things. *blink*

Etsy listing fee of 20 cents plus 3.5% = 22; PayPal fee 30 cents plus 2.9% = 31 cents; Total = 53 cents (perhaps 52 cents if the rounding is generous). So unless they are screwing the buyer on shipping fees, this seller is a complete dolt.

So you can buy this box for 50 cents, put your stupid crap in it, and fool your recipient into thinking you got them something theoretically classy. that looks like a Nordstrom’s box, even.
