KILL THE CLAMSHELL
PREPOSTEROUS PACKAGING DAY
Preposterous Packaging Day might also be called "kill the clamshell packaging" day.
Today, take your rage out on the ridiculous types of packaging we often must navigate to get to our purchase.
Celebrants hold bonfire and trash compacting parties to retire all preposterous packaging from their lives permanently. Quite therapeutic!"ODE TO PROPOSTEROUS PACKAGING
There once was a package so tight,
I battled it deep into night.
With scissors and saw,
I hacked through the flaw—
Just to find more wraps. What a plight!
The plastic was sealed with a glare,
Then taped up like a dragon’s lair.
Each layer I peeled
Revealed one more sealed—
A Matryoshka trap of despair!
At last, with my fingers all sore,
I reached the thing it bore.
A four-inch-wide pin
In a box not a bin—
Is this really all I paid for?
