Here’s a DIY I’d like you to see
It’s something that’ll make you happy
Wallets with faces made from duct tape
The Count is there but now he doesn’t have his cape

Cookie Monster always eats a lot
Elmo looks like he’s been smoking pot
Bert and Ernie will get lost in your couch
And no one wants to buy Oscar the Grouch

If you want one let me tell you how
You can plunk down thirteen dollars and get one now
Homemade creations are always the best
Not having money can be a real pest

So now you’ve seen the wallets
I hope you will enjoy
Our coverage of something
I like to call DIY

I don’t know if this is the work of a clever Photoshopper or if 3M really lost its fucking marbles. They’re bandages that use duct tape and are more durable and longer than your standard Band-Aid style.

It probably hurts like a bitch ripping one of these off, so make sure you don’t shave your nuts anytime soon. Wouldn’t want to have to patch things up now, would we?

Years ago, I met a girl at a party and offered to bring her back to my place for a drink. We had our way and soon developed a close relationship. The problem was, I had no money. Since being Internet famous is on the same level as a Philadelphia crack dealer, I was broke when Valentine’s Day came around. Luckily, I was able to scrounge up $4.89 and ran off to the hardware store. I immediately requested a roll of red duct tape and some ribbon.

I came home, crumpled up the tape, threw it in some saran wrap and tied it up. The girl came over, I presented and next thing I knew, she was walking out the door. If only I had shelled out the $15 on a real set of duct tape roses…
