quality control


under the right lighting, this is a good idea


let's say you break up with someone. but you both still really care for each other a great deal. would you think it's a good idea to send 25 of these bumper stickers to that person's sister's boyfriend, because you think that he would think it's a funny bumper sticker? apparently, without any regard for the imagined irony it might exude, i approved this idea. the same day i approved this idea, i also greenlighted the purchase of a silver antler coat rack, as well as a package of twelve tiny refrigerator magnets costing $16. this is more or less how my holidays went.

i think you have got some explaining to do! i have to admit, i have always thought the bumper sticker idea was hilarious, regardless of any implications.

when you talk to him, just say "happy birthday, jesus!"

Stranger than sending the sticker itself is the fact that you would send 25 of them.

So I get an envelope in the mail from a graphics company the other day. No information on the package except for the name of a company I've never heard of. Naturally I assume it's for Karen since she gets all kinds of packages sent to my house for her design projects. The day before we had a misunderstanding - nothing huge, but it lead to one of those "relationship" conversations. So when she comes over after work, I hand her the envelope. She opens it and gives me a "what the hell" look. I say that I have no idea why I got them (it's been at least 2 months since I last emailed Ted about the mysterious missing Xmas gift).
So I threw them out. Sorry.
