- @jdude727 How come some of these candy corns have eyes close to the top of their bodies and others more toward the middle? That’s kinda weird.

For all the leftover candy corn.
And to keep the batteries dry in the refrigerator.

Instead of calling it Stocking Stuffers, call it Sack Stuffers. You have the random items that belong in a garbage (or cheap Christmas) sack down.

  They could make the Friday Fukos even more crazy and worthless than they are now.
  
  They could send out randomized mixmaster paper collections from office shredders.
  
  (for security, the paper can never have been used otherwise).
  
  People would go nuts if they didn’t get one.
  
  I would prob try for it, if the Fuko included swag, or other Meh randomized madness.

I wonder if @snapster will ever do something like the Woot-off lights again. Sell something that’s of limited value (like catshirts) with the caveat that 10% will unceremoniously end up with even more stuff of limited value.

  Be sure never to tell me about sales on that site, ok?
  
  Never. Dont even think about doing that.

  Perhaps once I figure out how to only want one or two, instead of everything, I can allow myself to shop there.

- @f00l Sound reasoning. Usually the way to reduce the choices is to let some items sell out.
  
  If the past years were any indicator, their next big sale will be in February, aka their birthday sale.
