Whenever I’m asked “paper or plastic” I always choose Kryptonite. I inform them that Superman might be out in the parking lot thinking that I owe him money.

The bag has since been spotted in a Nordstrom pop-up store in Seattle, retailing for $590. Is that the Nordstrom in Seattle, Venezuela?

Might as well tack on a 90% excise tax. No one will notice.

retailing for $590. (That is approximately $589.95 higher than what a regular plastic bag costs to produce.) Sounds a bit pricey. But, if/when it goes on a 5% sale for $569.99, I'm sure to stock up and buy dozens.

A few years ago, I was buying something at REI and saw a little plastic ball looking thing. I asked the clerk what it was and she told me it was a reusable bag.
“For 16 bucks?” I asked, incredulously
She told me it was made from recycled plastic then handed me my purchase in a paper bag.
“Paper?”
She went on to nervously explain that they were recycled paper stock.
I then said “trees were nothing but a slow growing crop.” Leaving her speechless.
