After a seemingly endless quest (ok, looking at a few stores and trying to convince one of our interns to stock the cards at a game store she works at), I have found the Parks and Recreation trading cards I spent about two weeks thinking about. Thank you, Target on Grant near Tanque Verde, for stocking two boxes of the cards, which I will likely end up spending far too much money on in the next few weeks. The packs are a little absurdly priced at $2.99 for five cards, especially since I didn’t get anything as cool as the one that has a swatch of Ron Swanson’s shirt (!!!) but can you really put a price on the joy of owning a glossy printed Perd Hapley souvenir forever? I think not.

WHOA! your thumb is disproportionately huge!!!
Why is your hand so clean and soft looking? Haven’t you worked at least one day in your life?
That nail looks like it has been bitten to the quick
Why is your thumb knuckle yellowing?
Nice hand, douche.
You’d think if one person would go to the trouble of telling four jokes, one of them might be funny. But then again, at the rate of one every one minute, fifteen seconds, speed was clearly more important than wit.
IP – Busted!!!!
Whaaaa? One random person trying to cut down another random person for essentially doing nothing in the comments of a blog? Now I’ve seen everything!
Almost forgot– magnificent hand, man.
