A man from Chongqing in Southern China nearly suffocated to death after a romantic gesture to his girlfriend went wrong.
Mr Hu Seng had asked his friend to tape him into a box so he could ship himself via a courier service to his girlfriend, Li Wang.
However, the romantic gesture turned into a life-threatening event for Mr Hu when the courier company mixed up the address with another delivery.
The 30-minute wait turned into a three-hour ordeal for Mr Hu.
The material of the box was reportedly too thick for him to make any breathing holes while inside and he did not want to spoil the surprise by calling for attention.
When the box arrived at Li Wang's place, his friend was poised to record the event.
However, they found Mr Hu unconscious and looking pale upon opening the package.
Subsequently, paramedics were called over to her apartment to revive him.
He admitted, "I didn't realise it would take so long."
The courier company said they would not have accepted this delivery if they had known there was a person inside.
The spokesperson said that even for animals, a special container would be used so they can breathe properly.
LOL!
That be me, Matey!
Also, don’t read that book sitting on your table.
I left it there for safe keeping.
Now, it may beg you to read the passages on pages ten through fifteen, but don’t.
You’ll summon some entity from outside.
If it gives you too much trouble, threaten it with Bee Gees.
I should write a book! LOL!
I did be thinkin’ that this here was you...

Har, now I do be a tad confused... ;-)
Dirty Bess Bonney is the alter ego of Monkey Face Pirate!
LOL!
Our curriculum guide suggests a pirate novel.
The concern isn’t so much spilling the beans as thinking about and possibly forming opinions independent of sworn testimony and relevant law. We have an outstanding judge. I hope to be able to post some of what she has said some day.
WHOA!
Now there’s a scary thought! Mayhem, pillaging and plunder by a femme fatale!
Howdy.
After having consulted with Mr. Quackers, I am obliged to convey to you that he knew you intended no harm, courteous and urbane fellow that he is. Also, the horse says, “Hi!” :)
Teletubbies and Boobah? I’ve never seen those.
taking a knee to thank God for Mr. Quakers and the Horse.
That sounds serious.
If you go to Krispy Kreme, could you let us know how it turned out?
My alter ego’s a turnip.
Hey! How’s it going today?
FYI, just went to the talk-like-a-pirate site and they have a knit like a pirate section but no crochet like a pirate section. I am doooooooomed....
Hi, there! How are things in your neck of the woods today? Still smokey?
You can use single crochet to make the items. Just ignore the stuff on “felting.” You need to use wool for that, and I don’t like the way it comes out.
The rest of the pattern(s) can be adapted according to your usual crochet methods.
I printed the patterns but I won’t be knitting them.
