Tonight, we went to our local children’s museum member’s Christmas Party.
As we left, we passed a kiosk selling merchandise and they appeared to be selling a most curious product:
My husband and I thought for a moment and came up with this list of possible items that might fit the bill for this particular brand of creepy Christmas cheer:
POSSIBLE STALKING STUFFERS
1) Mini-binoculars
2) An address book
3) A mini-calendar to document the stalk-ee’s daily routine
4) A disposable phone.
5) Latex gloves
6) Mini-wiretap bundle
8 ) A coupon for Shutterfly.com
9) A waterproof bag. To protect all of the above.
10) A match. To burn all the evidence when caught in the act.
Just today, Bridget from Twinisms wrote a hilarious bit about illiteracy on her kid’s school website where parents and kids wrote in to express their dismay about possibly having to drive in icy conditions. It appears that her little town in Alaska and our little city in Texas experienced similar bouts of grammatical incorrectness.
All I have to say to the folks that wrote this sign is:
Thank You. And Merry Christmas. I hope you don’t get arrested.
You’re the Laredo Dexter!
People are so dumb…I don’t know how they get through life:)
Thanks for the shout out!
It’s funny! When I saw it, I thought, “Bridget JUST wrote about this!” haha! You’re welcome! Anytime!
This cracks me up!!! Thanks for the laugh tonight!!!
You’re welcome, Elaine- It’s not quite as funny as being denied tacos at Jack in the Box for giving counterfeit cash…but, I work with the material I’ve got. haha!
I am dying laughing….!
Gretchen- It was at the jumperoo right outside the museum. We were, like, “No, Way.” So, I posed in front of it like I was getting a nice shot of myself and there it is.
Funny post! A GPS tracking device might be a good stalking stuffer or one of those video camera stuffed animals.
Seriously, Rebekah? You came up with a brilliant stalking stuffer! Are you sure you’re not a Private I masquerading as a mom-blogger?
I don’t know what’s funnier, the sign or your list.
Actually, it’s your list. Definitely. And remember, it’s only stalking if you get caught…
Aw, thanks, Jo! Loved your post on P.A.E.! Yes, I will remember that tip. Don’t. Get. Caught.
Ha ha! That’s my kind of humor – Reader’s Digest humor.
Haha! I couldn’t believe it. Seriously, Chrissy. hahaha! Stalking? Seriously? haha!
Man thats awesome .How much for the bundle ?
A match is particular useless .i would suggest sodium .
A fedora is a must . And a bowl of yogurt too.
Arkas- You sound like a man with a plan. hahahahaha! Thanks for the comment!
Did they also have a kiosk where they were doing a reading of Jack and the “Bean-stock?” That’s all I got. Your list was much better
!
Michael! What a great perspective! I hadn’t considered that! That’s what happens when lovers of words come together. New possibilities! Thanks!
There’s a website for Gabby Giffords! As for the chalkboard menu writer…I’d be afraid to order the museum’s cafeteria soup.
It was at a kiosk near the museum but it was totally separate, thank goodness! Our kid’s museum staff is highly literate!
That’s fantastic. I love errors like this. hehe
Me, too- It’s like a blogger’s gift. haha! Thanks for the comment, Johanna!
