Makers of the popular party game Cards Against Humanity recently removed all products from their online store except for bullshit as part of a Black Friday protest.
Yes, the only thing available for purchase was actual bull shit. For $6.
All 30,000 boxes of this pungent product produced were sold, netting Cards Against Humanity a cool $180,000 and leading to a lot of confused videos like this one:
Did people who paid $6 for a box of bullshit just do it to join the company's cause? Just out of pure curiosity? Or did they expect they were buying something else?
Founder Max Temkin tweeted, "if you buy the poop expecting it to be something else that's not poop, you're actually buying a valuable life lesson for $6."
That makes it pretty clear, doesn't it? Well, not to a lot of customers.
As the boxes of shite begin to reach their destinations, more than a few people seem pretty shocked that the company would really mail them fecal waste.
It is a bit unusual, granted. But every bit as advertised.
The above LAist "unboxing" video that shows a guy breaking apart the crude matter, as if expecting there might be a nice surprise waiting within the cow pie.
Not so much. Just some overpriced fertilizer.
It's not clear what the company's profit margins are on the manure in question, but they definitely purchased a lot of bullshit, and likely marked up the price.
Having found this out the hard way, some lucky recipients have decided to flip the script and post the poop boxes on Ebay ... for as much as $30.
Is this a great country or what?!
