Gifts it would be a mistake to give
Nov. 4th, 2007 09:28 pmAs seen in a department store's "get in early for Christmas" catalogue.
Fat gauge: "Measures your percentage of body fat. Requires two button cell batteries, not included."
Just... no.
The same page also suggests a personal blood pressure monitor. Imagine the fun family that gives out gifts like these!
In other news, I'm worried about Hoppy, the one-legged magpie. The other magpies have started picking on her a bit, stealing her food and such, and she's not eating when they're not around either. She spent all of today sitting under a shrub, looking cold and wet and miserable, rather than sitting on the patio to get out of the rain like she normally does. I mean, she's a wild bird, and there's nothing I can do other than leave some oats out and make sure the bird bath has plenty of water. Still, I'm quite fond of her.
