The first time I saw this thing it was marketed as something to hold a pair of eye glasses on the front of a shirt if you don’t have a pocket. One half goes on the inside of your shirt and the other goes on the outside. They’re held together, in place, with really strong magnets.

if you don’t have a pocket.

Task failed successfully?

You might want to edit out the "delivering to" on that screenshot, fyi!

I appreciate the heads up, but it switched to Amazon Canada when I clicked the link and seemingly just put in random info lol that is not even remotely close to my name nor does it resemble in any way where I live

As someone from near by to Balzac, that is one hell of an abscure place to put you. I think theres exactly 10 people that live there and there's some giant malls. That's about it.

I just looked on wiki and it says population 1 person.

Yeah I looked it up and assumed it must be a big deal since they have that massive mall and a racetrack lol I didn't think to check the actual population

[-] wholookshere@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 4 months ago

My only thought is there's an Amazon fulfillment centre there for Calgary and area, but like, Calgary is still one hell of a random Canadian place to put you.

I certainly don't mind, that's where my favorite pro wrestler is from!

What is this? A telephone for ants?

My first thought was a magnetic handle you could attach to a bag or something to make it easier to carry.

bathroom doorknob or fidget spinner!
