But first, lets establish an understanding

1. This is the season, we in the US, call Christmas -- fact

2. It is traditional during Christmas to exchange gifts -- fact

3. It is also traditional that these gifts are wrapped -- fact

Then why are manufacturers allowed to market products in packages that are not rectangular!!!!!!

How are we supposed to wrap them

I don't care how trendy your product is, put in a box... a rectangular box.

Not a Scalene triangle, not a Trapezoid, neither a Nonagon nor a Dodecagon. And for the love of all that we hold sacred, nothing spherical or with any curves

A rectangular box. That's all that I am asking for. A little mercy from the manufacturers.

It is time to take a stand against this insidious practice.

If necessary I will take it to the US Supreme Court!



(yes I was wrapping Christmas presents last night)

First world problems, gotta love them!

Tell you what though, if we have another Christmas season like we did last year where every single member of my family ended up in the ER for various reasons, I'm personally coming to your house to help you wrap presents!
