(12,132 posts)13. lol, yeah
I was just gonna say my cousins never needed wealth to get theirs...I mean, if a grocery store gonna leave all these milk crates just laying around unattended...kind of in a pile in the back like they were going to throw them away...a fella can't really be blamed for misconstruing the situation can he?

The jackets were 3/8 inch too big, and I'm convinced they planned it that way to reduce milk crate rustling.
