Top Ramen Wallet
Friday, June 1st, 2007I came across this website called “Etsy”. Basically, it’s like Ebay, except, I suppose, it’s a place where one sells and buys stuff that is hand made. I wish I would have thought of it.
Now I knew a guy who was so talented, or had a lot of free time on his hands, that he made his own wallet… out of duct tape. Why on earth would you be carrying a wallet made of duct tape, I dunno, but I did appreciate the effort and the ingenuity that went into making such a product.
Which also reminds me of a story told by my old co worker, who said to never carry one of those velcro surfer wallets.
“Why not?” I asked. I have a beat up leather one, but I was still curious.
“Well, let’s say that you were on a date, and you pulled out your wallet. And what is the sound that the velcro wallet make when you open it?” He replied.
“Hm. The velcro sound?”
“Yeah, and it sounds like this to your date: ‘CHEAAAAAAAAAP’” Ha ha ha! he did the perfect velcro opening sound.
Well, you just had to be there.
Anyway, back to Etsy. I found this item for sale, and it’s relevant to this website, since it’s a “Ramen wallet.”
Pretty cool, huh? And the maker had the good taste to use the shrimp flavor packaging (no visible or discernible shrimp chunks, those lying Top Ramen jerks) though He/She claims that it can be made with bunch of other flavors too. Including “Oriental Flavor.” Hm? Where’s the Occidental flavor?
Tres Chic, regardless.
Go ahead and bid on it, make the wallet-smith a little richer by bidding on the item!
