The completely normal X-Mas madness

These days, the mailbox gets stuffed with catalogues and flyers of all kinds of stores that vie for the attention of potential Christmas shoppers. While browsing through some of  ‘em this morning I found two items I really need to share with you.
First is a pack of toilet paper sold by the discounter Plus. So far, so normal, but here it comes: It smells like almond christmas cookies (in German: Spekulatius). I mean hey, is that delicious! Now everytime I eat one of those cookies it reminds me of wiping my butt. Man, that really raises my Christmas spirit ;-)

Second is a Playmobil ship. I was a little bit confused about the name of the ship owning company "Conlines". Either they want the children to play with a boat that transports convicted criminals or someone doesn’t know any English here. Obviously the designers never watched the movie Conair. It reminds me a little of the Eastpak backpacks that where sold under the name "Bodybag", which was really hilarous.
