Apartment lintI don't own a lot of stuff, having neither a sentimental nature or, well, cash, but some crap has managed to accumulate in the two years and change I've been in this, my soon to be ex-apartment. Re-gifts. Okay, thanks for the perfunctory thought. Really. Very kind. You know, Ray Charles can spot a re-gift in an unopened box on the bottom of the Atlantic. The re-gift buck is stopping here. Lord knows how many unthankful people this knock-off Tamagotchi keychain has passed through, cheapening relationships left and right and foretelling devalued status and break ups like a little Korean Macbeth witch before landing here, but it's going to the goddamn Goodwill where such evil belongs. Cables. I don't remember how many cables the standard computer printer actually ships with, but I do know that you must get at least two of however many genders the species has, and they arrive out of the box greased up, drunk, and hornier than R. Kelly in a Mcdonald's Playland ballpit. I feel like I'm supposed to be stealing the lost Ark of the Covenant, here. Not even Goodwill will suffer this nonsense. Gift mugs. Yes, I know it's my fault for making such a big deal out of enjoying coffee, but really, think it over for a moment... given that I do enjoy coffee so much, aren't coffee mugs the thing I'm most likely to already have enough of on my own? Cans. Haggis? Jesus. I don't even remember buying that. Canned bread? They make that? Whoa...1965. 500 dead roach exoskeletons. That came with the place, so shall it stay. I'm not here to re-organize the joint. Maybe they're necessary, I don't claim to understand feng shui. Big fuzzy speakers. Well, they work okay if you don't crank them. Sorta. If you jiggle the terminal in back. Also, I think the left one was never in phase, really, but it's hard to tell becu- Swimfins. Useless, but kind of pricey.
