This morning, in case you just don't care, lol, Blue Origin launched another suborbital flight. All went well but there were a couple problems in starting up. But they got it all fixed and the flight went off perfectly. (Click the picture to make it a little larger.)

wearing my cockring 24 hours a day
Looking at the price of the toilet paper, maybe this was during covid, just after the Chinese invented the anal swab covid test. "Get a free covid test and a reminder of what real toilet paper was like!" Actually, looking at the expression on the samples woman, I might not be far off....
Also, that would explain why the single roll of paper is on a silver tray.
This reminds me of a gag I pulled at work almost 25 years ago. We had a model of our building in the lobby of our building. Someone had put some Hot Wheels cars in the parking lot of the model. The building was new, and at the time there was a very large population of gulls because the lot lights didn't have anti-bird spikes on top of them yet. The cars in the lot (the real one) were always covered with close to this level of poop. So, I bought some of my own model cars, painted them up with liquid white-out, and put them in the diorama. They were a hit!
That wasn't the only gag I pulled with that diorama. I don't remember now whether it was the first. It probably was. In another one I bought a dragster and some people and had the dragster running over the people at the crosswalk where the stop sign was. As I mentioned, it was a new building. The existing residents of the base did not appreciate the change in traffic flow caused by its construction, and they demonstrated it by ignoring the new stop sign at well above the base speed limit. When I left at the end of the day the diorama had turned into a community project, with some of the people figurines being moved into the trees, and one being moved to the roof of the building like he was jumping off. The building was 5 stories tall. It was nice to see other people having fun!

Also because the building was new, the elevators were trapping people about once a week. I also think I remember problems with the fire alarm system, too, Anyway, it was common to see the big fire truck parked out in front. So, I got one as close as I could to the right scale, and put it in the diorama.

There was also an employee who purchased a limo to use as his winter beater car. It was parked in the parking lot sometimes even when he switched back to his "regular" car. So, of course, a limo model had to go into the diorama. And this picture is actually pretty close to the one the guy had, too, but his was in worse condition.

The last one I can remember doing involved the commuter bus company that many of the employees used to get to work from the next state over. The bus company wasn't doing proper maintenance, and when their inter-city buses were all broken down, they switched to the sort of intracity buses one would take just to go downtown. I think they may have downgraded once more before going out of business (they were competing with employee-driven commuter vans). Anyway, while they were still on their downward spiral, I bought a model of a stake-bed truck like the one below, put the name of the company on the cab, and put some business people figurines in the back. It was appreciated by at least one person I knew who was still taking that bus.
