Nordstrom is selling ordinary stones wrapped in ordinary leather this holiday season.
I’m not kidding.
They describe it as “A paperweight? A conversation piece? A work of art? It’s up to you…”
I would be more inclined to call it a moron detector.
A lunatic locator.
A “get a life” warning.
The stone, which is “sure to draw attention wherever it rests,” retails for $85 and is SOLD OUT.
As of this morning, the stone has one review on the Nordstrom website. It reads:
“Artistically, this product is inspiring. It reveals it’s beauty to those who observe, respect and adorn it with carefully chosen materials to enhance it’s surface. Rocks, like fond memories are to be passed on as a keepsakes for generations to come.”
A smaller, $65 version of the stone is also available for those of you who have only partially lost your minds.
The next time you are feeling alone, lost, hopeless, or like a failure, take solace in this:
There are people in the world who paid $85 for a stone. At least you aren’t that stupid.
