Do it!

I thought I was the only person that did stuff like that when I'm pist. I once paid rent in ones. Made it rain and then laughed about it.
When I want to aggravate someone with cash, I use $2 bills and dollar coins. Some people don't realize that they are legal tender.
Canadian coins are actually the best. People get so pist about them. I had some guy from a middle eastern corner store chase me three blocks because I used a Canadian quarter.

The most random thing happened today...

I ordered a used PS2 game off Amazon a few days ago. It arrived today, and I opened up the package and found a weird object wrapped in plastic with a label on it reading "Ipod Soap". There was also a little hand written letter saying:

"Thank you for your order! Im including some custom hand made vegan soap created by newmoondezigns.etsy.com {soon to be blind tiger} I hope you enjoy your purchase & the soap!"

Being that I actually do abide by a vegan diet, I found the whole thing to be really weird. The bar of soap is shaped like an Ipod with a really pissed off looking sun where the screen would be. Would take a picture but too lazy.

Are you going to keep it and then use it?

@brunoafh that is very odd to compliment to your purchase with a bar of soap. Do you plan to use it? Hopefully it smells good :D

Why the heck would I make up something that strange? Congrats, you made me take a pic.

Whether or not I'm going to use the soap... I'm not sure. The idea of cleaning my body with a random thing that came in the mail shaped like an Ipod with a ridiculous picture on it doesn't really excite me.

Where did it ship from? I've had weird "gifts" come with purchases before, but only from China and whatnot. Yeah, things like tassels and dream catchers, never soap. I hung the dream catcher up some where in my basement, but I would never use some random soap that came in the mail. I'd either save it as a conversation piece or just throw it away.

Just got to 8-3 in SMB The Lost Levels. In short, it's hell in the sky. Athletic hammer bros with no cover, lakitus everywhere, and invisible blocks that spawn poison mushrooms when hit... I made it to the end of the level once, but died on the last jump >_>
