Sell the Etch A Sketch to a collector.  With the proceeds buy an iPad Pro and a few cases of wine.

 

 

With Etch-a-Sketches being sold on Amazon for $23 USD, I think maybe I'd need more than one!

It might depend on how old it is.  I recently learned one of my camera lenses sells for up to $40,000 to collectors.  Glad I kept the box.

Ooof, that's a relief.  I spent much of the night worrying it would be deleted.   

 

And why gin? A dark rum or orange liquor (Grand Marnier) would be perfect. 😁

"Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged."  -Max Tegmark, physicist

 

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

A king can stand people's fighting, but he can't last long if people start thinking. -Will Rogers, humorist

Question:  why is it that liuzhou and chromedome post all the food funnies?  Where do they find them?  I have yet to find a food funny anywhere except on this thread.
