...when you angrily deride the store clerk at Toys R Us, whose rough handling of a $25 toy you just bought for your 5-year old son put a crease in the backing cardboard -- AND you refuse to buy it as a result -- AND you go back to the aisle where the toy was hanging to get a minty fresh new one -- AND when you go back to the checkout counter you make sure to instruct the store clerk as to the proper handling of the cardboard backing of a $25 toy.
After I did this, I felt terrible. I called my wife and admitted I might have a cardboard problem.
All true. Happened two weeks ago.
