Another Quality Blog From Bobbikk!

Sometimes, when I am walking down the street, jam donut in hand which I have just purchased from the local bakery, I get a funny urge. I'm sure most of you have had it. That feeling that the sentimental attachment to the paper bag that you have been needlessly holding on to for the last five minutes must be severed. That you just cannot contain the sheer energy within you to thrust the container away from your person and scream, "Nevermore shalt thou darken my hand with thine presence, paper bag!" As the seconds pass, the irresistable feeling takes full control of you and you know that you are meer moments away from that fiendish crime known as... littering.

What are you to do? You can't stop your body from doing what is only natural and right in dropping the damned thing. Yet, it would be wrong to leave the bag for ducks, mice and even, yes, zebras to get caught in. That would be just plain evil.

But then, as it is almost too late, the 8th wonder of the world comes into view, no it's not the Business centre at my university (although it is a wonder as to why the thing was ever built. It's the most disgusting looking building EVER), it's not superman holding his hand out to receive your rubbish, no... it's... it's...

A BIN.

That's right, your prayers are answered, the day is saved, Gotham City is safe for another night.

At least, that is the image that the bin company certainly wants to project of itself. Putting my burdensome paper bag into a receptical the other afternoon, I spotted this sign on it:

"Another Quality Product From Gamillion*!!!"

I'm sorry, but when have you ever described a bin as 'quality'? Firstly, I just wonder if the people who made this hi-fived when they finished. "Alright! Dude, we like totally made a bin! Awesome!" Secondly, what were the OTHER quality products? Surely the label on this bin should be extended to the following?:

"From the people who brought you 'The Quality Toilet Seat' and 'The Quality Plastic Television Remote Control Holder', get ready for 'BIN'. You won't believe your eyes at the quality of this product! Be on the lookout for yet another quality product from Gamillion!"

Surely only a sign such as that would be fitting for an acheivement of such magnitude?

*Gamillion is almost certainly not the name of the company in question. I'd like to say that I had to change the name due to legal rights and the controversy that my amazing blog has caused within the bin making industry, however the truth is that I purely forgot the name.
