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: APRFU31

“What could this mean?” Samantha asked.
“Who would do this to us?” Chris wondered.
“What kind of asshole buys the off-brand Cap’n Crunch? This shit is tearing my gums up even worse than the normal stuff!” bemoaned Raj.
I can’t even celebrate the success of annoying our coworkers because Frank is incessant in his questioning how this helps rebel against the machines. His poor hygiene has led to infection in most of his BB wounds, and he picks at the weeping pustules constantly.
Pranking is disgusting work.
