10 Things To Do Instead Of Unpacking

  • Use your new-found G.I. Joe action figures to infiltrate the Smurf fortress of Smurfdom, assassinate Papa Smurf, set up Brainy Smurf as the new regimes figurehead ruler and kidnap Smurfette as the ‘spoils of war’.
  • Using old cardboard boxes, some pillows and a blanket, build a fort. Use it to hide from the angry infidel who wishes you would grow up.
  • Call Raisin Bran headquarters and complain that your box was four raisins short of two scoops. Demand a refund.
  • Play X-Box until your eyes bleed and your sphincter implodes.
  • Research PC audio cards.
  • Attempt, through two hours of intense & rigorous taste testing, to discover which of the 17 nearby pizza shops makes the best slice of pizza.
  • Rearrange your books using the Dewey decimal system. Create an index card catalogue for reference complete with a thumbnail picture of each books cover and plot summary.
  • Disassemble your computer, laying out each part according to size, shape and color, then reassemble it without using your thumbs. Time yourself.
  • Spend several minutes attempting to develop your latent psychic powers of telekinesis and mind control. Should they manifest themselves, take over the world.

    Ya Freak.

  2. I have been writing General Mills about the shortage of marshmallow content in my Lucky Charms. Bastards! They have a pat answer, but I am NOT giving up easily.
