“It’s working! But I wonder who sent them?..
…You would think it’d be easy to match scratch and sniff crotch shot stickers with the Only Fans account that sent them for frequent customer appreciation. But no. It’s not.”
…It’s like the sender is intimately familiar with the contents of my underwear drawer.”
…And here I was thinking I’d have to go to the black market to get some new kidneys! But some just showed up on my doorstep! It’s a gift that’s both incredibly thoughtful and incredibly unsettling at the same time.”
…That’s the problem with gifts from mysterious stalkers. You never know who to address the thank you card to.”
…I guess I could ask the ex-felon who smuggled them here out of prison in his rectum. But I dread awkward conversations.”
…Now if only they’d send me the rest of the torso.”
Happy Tax Day!
Who sent them? Was it the Spanish Inquisition? Because NO ONE EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION!!!
Not my idea, but one I fully support:
Tax Day and Election day should both be on the same day.
