    $26.51 is exactly the right amount to buy my elderly neighbour Lucy’s favorite book, “Gary Potter and the platypus hymen”. I’ve never read it but she’s told me that it’s about a young Welsh magician named Gary who can’t stop harvesting platypus hymens to feed to his pet snake because he thinks it gives it the power of love, but instead all it does is cause an environmental disaster in Uzbekistan. Anyway my neighbor died around the same time as the little boy in the other meme posted on here about blood donation so I went through her stuff and grabbed a copy of that book. I’ll sell it to you for $26.51 but only if you’ll feed me chips while I drive a cement truck to Trinidad, I’ve heard they really need to cover the entire island in concrete so the animals and plants all go away, they’ve been squatting there for thousands of years like vagrants.
