A: I know! A potato!

Q: What is the best gift for the person who has everything?

Why didn't I see this at Christmastime? Shopping DONE. — Because if they have everything, surely they need a potato.

This is an actual, real ad that I saw today. What is even going on in this world? I mean, yeah, I get that it is intended as a prank — it’s just that if I was inclined to give someone a potato, I’m pretty sure I’d want to customize it myself.

I think this might be the strangest thing you’ve ever found. And that says a lot!

I’m trying to figure out why someone would send a potato with Bradley Cooper’s face on it as a prank. I don’t get it…

  And now I am remembering how my dad and my aunt used to mail each other mashed potatoes. All before I was born, mind you. I just remember how they’d joke about it in Christmas cards every year and at family get togethers. No idea why this happened or who started it.

  Right?! I can see it now. Potato arrives via post. Recipient spends years wondering who it came from. MIL is angry because recipient didn’t say thank you.

    A brilliant marketing strategy. Frustrated MIL’s a bonus…
