Item of the Moment

Remember the joys of bubble wrap??? Popping air filled bubbles of plastic over and over and over again until you finally drove your parents insane and they sent you to bed without supper for being such an annoying bastard. Ah, memories.

Now, remember how sad it was once you realized there were no more bubbles left and your mother gave the other sheet to your little sister. ARRRGGGHHHHHHH- how aggravating.

Well leave it to the Japanese to invent my Item of the Moment- Electronic Bubble Wrap!!!!!!

"PuchiPuchi is designed to simulate the look, feel, and sound of popping bubblewrap, perhaps every geek's favorite pastime.

Every 100 "pops" gives you a random sound including "door chime", "barking dog", "sexy voice", the eternal "fart" noise, and more! As an added bonus, among every 1000 pieces is a "puchi lucky" toy with a heart-shaped bubble." (Japan Trend Shop).

I had a Japanese friend in college who I used to smoke pot with, and she claimed that people in Japan weren't really into pot and drugs and shit,which is probably why she was reluctant to go back. I think that totally sucks, but I believe it. That's why they have such crazy shit out there like electronic bubble wrap- ain't nothing else to do.

But seriously- I can't wait to go to Japan one day to buy a whole bunch of sneakers and crazy ass toys and shit. Oh, I'll also remember to stuff some pot up my ass for my friend, since it's hard for her to get. It might smell like rotting intestines of a pig, but once she's stoned she won't mind.

Oh, and as is always the case, I will happily accept this as a gift.

Thanks!
