The Envelope Partner
I received a strange envelope in the mail today. It was unaddressed and it read, “Find your partner inside!!!”.
I knew the envelope wasn’t intended for me since I didn’t have a partner. But then I started thinking, what kind of partner could fit into an envelope? It seemed rather ridiculous to me that you could open an envelope and expect your partner to fall out. Sure, maybe you could pull that off with wormholes, but I don’t think our scientists have quite mastered the nature of wormholes yet, let alone finding a partner to shove into one.
Then I started thinking… maybe it was like Sea-Monkeys. Sea-Monkeys and astronaut ice-cream. They both require water to be added and both contain hyphens, so I figured I was onto something. I was also a bit hungry.
Unfortunately, adding water to the envelope only resulted in a small puddle and a bit of papier-mâché. I decided to make the best of the situation and formed the papier-mâché into a little person and stuck it in my neighbour’s mailbox.
Easy come, easy go.
