(no subject)

When people in my office have things to give away (food, spare supplies, etc.), we leave them on the counter in the mail area. Usually we add a note to clarify that these items are up for grabs.

Today, one of my co-workers left out a series of gift boxes. They are simple, but a little elegant: small, nicely colored cardboard boxes with shiny cloth lining the insides. As the day has progressed, here are the notes that have been left with the boxes:

Note #1: "Take me, I'm yours!"

Note #2: "What a good box I am! Take me home!"

Note #3: "These are not gerbil coffins."

But what if someone really needed a gerbil coffin?

Well, I suppose it doesn't have to be a proscriptive explanation - maybe just an assurance that these are not made to be gerbil coffins? But if you're in need, well then. XD
