This swap is not for mail sissies! You'll get strange looks at the post office! Some people will not understand! You must have a sense of humor for this swap, so serious people with frowns on their faces may as well quit reading. (You won't like me. You won't like this swap. Please go away, since I'm a bit low-self-esteemy over this idea, and you'll give a bad look that I will feel, even if I don't see it.) Ahem...my idea: let's mail one of those cheap paper plates like a postcard! Let's make our mail carriers figure out how they're going to squeeze a full paper plate into our tiny mail boxes because the whole world is going to homeowners associations and communal mailboxes. Do I exaggerate? Good! How else am I going to think up things like mailing paper plates?! DO NOT THINK OF JOINING THIS SWAP IF YOU ARE GOING TO PUT THE PLATE INTO AN ENVELOPE. NO ENVELOPES! DO YOU HEAR? IF YOU MAIL IT IN AN ENVELOPE YOUR PARTNER WILL GIVE YOU A BAD GRADE, AND CALL YOUR MOTHER. Mail art is fun! Letters and notes are fun! Stickers are fun! Getting out those markers to doodle is fun! Lame boring two line messages are not fun! Have fun! Your partner wants something good. She told me. This is going to cost $1.95 if the guy at my post office doesn't lie, so let's not believe him yet, but that's a good guideline. It has to be mailed like a package. (Which is cheaper than the can of corn I tried to mail like a package one time. Trust me, if you're on a budget, don't try mailing a can of corn. Even though it's funny, that kind of funny isn't worth $9, trust me. No one's laughing $9 worth.) This is for U.S. people only, because we don't want people in other countries thinking we're stupid. Also, if you have a bad rating, I don't think I want you in my swap. But I could be wrong. Your dad could, like, own a paper plate factory, in which case, chances are you'll send it. |
