I love how all of these stories end like a punchline in a standup routine. Also my ideal wedding is a courthouse followed by a big-ass table at some equivalent of a Cheesecake Factory where everyone wears casual clothes and brings no gifts. But my fianceé wants to dress up for the day lol

furby nonsense -> furby gospel truth

i wish i could say i'm off my furby bullshit, but i recently started writing a very stupid furby essay.

oh these are awesome. The lobster one was made for people like me. I buy ANYTHING with lobsters on the spot.

I gotta find out if there’s a fish one..

There are definitely tropical fish ones

I had a big cow phase when I was 10 and I would have absolutely loved these. I mean, I would still love these, but I would have loved them then too

It was the lobster one that put me over the edge.

i love looking at these types of sweaters/cardigans on ebay 0:-) so charming. i have a question- what is the texture of these typically like? do you find it scratchy at all?

@neopetgameboy I find them pretty comfortable. Most Michael Simon sweaters are a cotton/ramie blend, so they aren't scratchy like wool. They're not super soft, but not super rough either. If there is embroidery, you can feel that on the inside. I can see that irritating some people. Being cotton, they are also heavier than a wool or acrylic sweater would be.

The hunting one definitively looks like a painting or a tapestry, I had never heard of these sweaters but I'll certainly think about them this weekend, and i thank you for that

very good. i found a Y2K themed one at a consignment (with beaded 2s and 0s all over a black sweater) and it always gets a ton of compliments

thank you for that info! i am always tempted to purchase but held back by the potential for uncomfortability.

Unfortunately I haven't seen this pencil, but now I want one too.

found something better: https://www.ebay.com/itm/298114582101

are you just going to ignore the quest giver two times or are you gonna find that pencil???

@hastiest I was skeptical, but I have to admit it is a really good pencil. Still, it's not THE pencil.

what a cool pencil - i will be on the lookout. i have also lost something since 2004 - an entire building that i swear used to be in this one spot when driving down the highway. i swear i haven't been dreaming it up..

I want to believe- the truth is out there!!!!!

I just saw a pencil but unfortunately it wasn't this one. Will keep trying.
