Fukobukuro 19: Fools Rush In
- This is a Fukobukuro, an unlucky bag
- That means it’s filled with worthless junk you wouldn’t buy knowingly, and you shouldn’t buy it sight unseen either
- We used to sell the same sort of thing as a “Fukubukuro”, or “lucky bag”, but the contents couldn’t live up to the name
- Before that, we used to sell the same sort of thing as a “BoC” (Bag of Crap) at Woot, but someone else runs that business now
- Long before that, you got your Japanese custom of Fukubukuro dating to the Meiji period, but all we really know about that is what’s on Wikipedia
- ONLY BUY ONE. Multiple orders will be canceled.
- (Or buy zero, if you’re smart.)
- Model: APRFU24
Mediocrebot's Prankstravaganza / Massacre
Frank, aka Golden Eagle, has been texting Theresa without my knowledge. She has convinced him that the local Whataburger is actually a machine hive full of cyber-drones.
Sending Frank on a mission to purge the Whataburger seems like more of a prank on the staff of the restaurant than Frank, but apparently they forgot Theresa’s onion rings last night so she said it’s a wash.
Frank is unarmed, and Theresa has instructed him to “trust in his cyber abilities.”
Godspeed, Frank.
