I nearly bought a battery-operated glowing gnome to put in my office break room freezer.

Saw it at a small local record shop over the weekend. Only thing that stopped me was the $15 price tag.

Yes, it would've made a great gag, but I'm a cheap-ass.

1. Yes, $15 bucks is a

lot for a gag. But if you decide to spring for it, place it on your desk instead, and beam with pride when people stare at it.

2. The cold in the freezer probably would have killed the batteries anyway. n/t

3. obviously you need to put the vegetable suet in there

labeled "do not throw away"



plus if your roommate comes back and want it it will be available and you won't have to store it in your fridge

4. Hmm. Sounds like a win-win to me.

Except for my coworkers, of course. But they're pretty much all losers anyway. :evilgrin:

5. $15 is not too bad if the gnome could be recycled for future gags.

My sister and her family have a Horrid Lawn Gnome ("HLG") that has been around the world (literally). It gets smuggled into someone's luggage or belongings, and that someone gets to discover said HLG, and plot it's transfer to the next victim.
