Tired of your boring box?

Check it out you guys. Thanks to something called SmokeStixx, you can now personalize/conceal your cigarette boxes so that instead of saying to the world, “Hi, I smoke!” you’re saying, “Hi, I smoke… and like tiaras.”

Or something manly like a flaming skull! Scary!

But see, while I can’t condone smoking but I can condone stickers. In fact I condoned stickers as president of a sticker club when I was a child. We met in a cardboard box in my backyard. I’m not even making this up. But back to the subject at hand, do you think I want the world to know when I have my period?

I would festoon that shit with unicorns and then grab the box, clutch my stomach and whine loudly about my cramps and how men all suck. Then I’d start crying. No one would be the wiser!

Or what about this?

Like I want to broadcast to the world that I’m eating cheese? Like I want to put my cheese on shout? Excuse me, but a lady never tells.

Similarly, I would recommend personalizing your butter.

Why not disguise it as margarine? Wouldn’t that be a real hoot and a half? It would. So you see, it’s only your imagination that will limit your use of this product, so long as what you’re imagining fits in a small box. In fact—and this just occurred to me—you could disguise a rape kit as a cigarette box. Seriously you guys, I should be in R&D.

    Posts like these are why I think you'd be a hoot and a half to know in person. LOL! Wow …. why not disguise butter as margarine? You've now found a way for regular house hold products to enjoy Halloween too. hahaha! You're crazy.

    This could get expensive if you smoke a lot. On the other hand, they could make stickers that look like an off brand of ciggies so people won't bum off you anymore, so that could offset the cost. What's up with that, by the way? I love it when people ask to bum a smoke off of me and then turn me down when they discover I'm offering them a Winston Ultra Light instead of a Marlboro Light or the dreaded Parliament. Not that I smoke. That would be offensive and gross, and make me a bad person!

    You can always stash your coffin nails in Vinnie's Tampon Case.
