This Should Be Punishable By Law
In most western countries that IS punishable by law. Not least in the US.
There Is A Special Place In Hell For Asshole Cookie Designers
Save The Extra Plastic And Just Make A Smaller Bottle Please
Bigger Bottle, Less Tablets
This Roll Of Stickers Is Really Just A Sheet Of 20
There’s Just Enough To Fit In The Window
This Pen Was Made To "Minimalize" Usage Of Plastic In It
Some Leftover Chocolate From Christmas
My 6yo Daughter Spent Her Pocket Money On This, Cried That "It's Not Fair"
I Would Like To Thank Suave For Increasing The Size Of Their Bottle By -17%
