Feliz Cumpleanos!
So today I get a sweet gift from my hubby. It's what I wanted - a GC from Anthropology, a very overpriced but cool clothing store. The gift card/GC card comes in this;
-a gift bag with tissue paper
- a wrapped box with ribbon and another card/tag
- a thick paper triple folded sleeve.
Tell me, why all of the packaging? Yes it's cute, but seriously?
This has become my pet peeve as of late. Packaging. Everything has way too much of it!
Now I do think that we should be forced to supply our own packaging, especially reusable bags. Now some people say" What about our freedom? We shouldn't be forced to do anything!"
Bullshit.
Are we not suppose to be fined if we litter? Well, basically that is what we are doing. Organized litter. It's "out of sight out of mind" littering.
Plus really, I'm so sick of the "my freedoms" cry. It's not freedom we are talking about. It's lazy convenience. No one is going to be physically harmed if they don't bring their own bags to the store. They will just look like idiots trying to get all of that stuff home with just 2 hands:)
Yes, I'm 34. And I'm not cranky, really;)
