Top Trumps: What were you thinking?!?!

A few last minute things to get today at the local shopping mall. We were there fairly early, but by the time we left, it did have those first signs of desperation and lunacy. I was glad to get out of the car park in one piece.

And when I say anything… I really mean it.

Honestly, this seems rather unnecessary to me. Who wants to know that sort of thing anyway? Let alone have them compete with one another for the purposes of a kids’ game. Wholly inappropriate.

Eww.
