"that's a sport"

By BrenPublished about a year ago 1 min read

my cupboards and drawers

are filling with crap

and other things

brand new useless shit

i bought off the internet

i get up in the morning

and hit that bloody phone

tap tap tap

buy buy buy

i shouldn’t be left alone

i have boxes full

of brand new useless shit

floor to ceiling

up each hall

i had to buy

some Bunnings shelves

so i could stack that

brand new useless shit

up every bloody wall

got a taxi box

out on the front lawn

completely chockas

with brand new useless shit

backyards full of soggy courier boxes

and i need another shed

so i jumped on the internet

and bought some more brand new useless shit instead

i’ve bought so much brand new useless shit

i’ve gone and maxed all my credit cards

i bought a lot of brand new useless shit

but i never ever bought a jar of farts

    Love it! I'm envious. I'm too poor to buy useful shit. ⚡ ♥️ ⚡

    You and I need to throw a HUGE rummage sale. My wife and I go to estate sales on a regular basis. I own more books than a library, more action figures than a comic shop, and more porcelain dolls than a ceramics shop. Action figures = boy dolls = mine Porcelain dolls = girl dolls = wife’s And we order WAY too much crap on the internet… Mostly for our 7 7/9 grandkids. I grok this Brenton. Well done mate.
