Thanks. I hate it.

So, a co-worker brought me this tonight. Made a special trip to the store and gave it to me while I was washing dishes (even wrapped it in The Amazing Spider-Man paper!) and much like the numerous Archie Comics, the The Comic Book Story of Video Games book, the A History of Japan in Manga: Samurai, Shoguns and World War II book, and the metal detector I got for Christmas one year (still in the brown box next to the dog ornament in this photo) I have no idea what to do with this. At least the reading material was tossed into the trunk of my car in case I break down somewhere and need something to do while I wait for roadside assistance. That's something, I guess, but what do I do with this thing? Put it in my yard? I really don't have a spot for something that kitsch. Don't really have much use for my yard, either, but I don't want to clutter it with that. I'm more of a giver than a taker. I hate receiving gifts because they almost never have any real thought put behind them. I didn't ask, but I'm sure the logic here was "Phronems likes dogs. This is dog. Perfect gift." I really want to toss this in the trash. It's surprisingly big and gaudy and I don't want that taking up my limited space. Can't do it. I may hate gifts like this, but I will still do my best to hang on to someone's generosity as long as possible out of respect for them, so I guess I'm stuck with it along with that metal detector. What do I do with a metal detector? Go to the beach? *facepalm* No. Absolutely not.


I kind of want to name the dog tho... maybe Skippy. Does he look like a Skippy to any of you?

Name them Anirnialuk because the name is cool

Silly lawn ornaments don't need cool names. On the other hand, if I ever get around to playing Coromon again, that might be a name worth using on a caught critter of the coolest caliber. That or "Jalex." Not only does it start with "J" (the best letter) but it also has an "X"in it. Everyone loves "X" especially in chemical form.
