Hello, “JOSEPH.” I appreciate your eagerness to sell me nicotine patches and box fan, but this wasteful receipt is not helping.
What is the point? All those things on there – the date twice, weird equations, things to do, a “Finnegan’s Wake” passage. When has it been so ok for receipts to get so long? We need to stand up and fight for a shorter receipt. Item. Price. End. If you are interested, send me an e-mail at marc at ineedtostopsoon dot com and we can organize a national protest for a shorter receipt. How’s May 17th sound? I think that’s a Thursday.
Together we are a non-refundable purchase.

A couple of months after moving into my new place, I found myself in a real pinch – my shower was being taken over by scummy soap snot. It totally engulffed my nice bar of soap and was getting all over my shampoo bottles. I seriously bet soap scum was the big idea behind The Blob!
I refused to go out and buy a soap holder for my shower – who really likes buying those silly things, and don’t we have enough stuff around as it is? I was pretty broke too.
But not broke enough to afford myself a nice piping hot cup of coffee from the local Cuban Bakery. They served their coffee in styrofoam cups – bad, bad, bad. So I began saving them thinking I’d do something with them someday. Indeed I did – I made myself a soap holder! I cut the bottom off the cup and cut two little slits in it for drainage, and shizzam, a soap holder.
I have been using this little invention for about eight months and miraculously there is absolutely NO soap scum at all! I have no idea how it happens, but I always have a nice fresh, scum free bar of soap with only the occasional curly hair intruder. And no soap scum underneath it! Incredible!
Now don’t go out and buy a 50 pack of styrofoam cups. Find one, save one you HAD to use, or borrow one from a friend. Simply cut the bottom off at about 2″ high, cut two 1/4″ slits in the very bottom and leave them hanging like little slides, put the big opening down first, and set your soap on the slitted side. Done. Now you can have one of the best inventions of the 21st century in your home.
