I may be a student but I don't drink beer all the time.

That's a fine idea you have Lal, people pay thousands for Tom Cruise's used toothbrushes, and it's ridiculous of course. But I would be honoured to give money for those things you mentioned. Especially the leftover leaf; maybe some of davem's wisdom can be gained by the inhalation...

I would offer the empty boxes of Cheez-Nips/Cheeze-Its that I went through browsing through this forum, but some people would want them only for one reason:
There's a chance that a somewhat skilled detective could muster fingerprints from the outside of the box. In case that fails, the buyer would simply usher the boxes and bags inside them to a local Forensics lab and see if they could discover my identity using the remnants of my saliva from licking my fingers after eating one hand-full, and then digging in for more.

I'm not saying that I'm a wanted criminal or anything, well maybe for littering instead of recycling...

I'll donate the half-empty (half-full?) can of Coca-Cola that I started drinking five minutes before I decided to give up soda for Lent. It's.. um.. pretty old now. But just think; people will pick up that can and say, "HEY! This once belonged to Maeggaladiel!" (insert blank stare from everyone else) "Y'know... that... weird person... who posts every now and then..." (blank stare) "Who... mainly hangs out in Mirth..." (cricket noises) "Oh, I give up." (throws away soda and goes to see if Eomer's beer can has been sold yet.)

Yeah, that's how it would probably happen. Man, I can't believe that hypothetical entity would just throw away my perfectly good coke for a can of beer! It's not like I've been a complete loser on this site! The nerve! I'm going to go put nasty messages on his hypothetical answering machine.

Wow. It's times like this when I feel horribly insignificant. Thank you, Lal. I'm off for my next counselling session. I'll send you the bill.

Don't forget to write this hypothetical person some hypothetical hate mail.

And I don't think you're insignificant, and neither do the Tree Wraiths....RUN!!

Which brings me to my next product idea:
The Blinker 3000. Never let another person ignore your post again! When some entity passes over your post or the thread on which it is located, The Blinker 3000 will tap into their computer system causing the monitor to blink incessantly until they view your post. Or if that isn't enough, it will flood their inbox with emails notifying them of your oh-so-brilliant post.

Notice: The Blinker 3000 will probably never make it on the market due to Morai's fear of being sued by not so thrilled victims of the Blinker's wrath.

More Barrowdowns action figures:

The HerenIstarion action figure comes with a broom and dustpan for all that sweeping, and has amazing thread-reviving action as well. But that's not all! He also transforms into his alter-ego, Roggie of Morgoth, at the push of a button.

The Eomer of the Rohirrim action figure transforms into a werewolf and comes with the gallows as well. When hung from the noose, the action figure will shout things like "No, no, no! I have NO wolves in mind! MIRTH MIRTH MIRTH!"

One of the rare occasions when a movie quote is in order...

Hookbill, by the way, I think you need to re-issue us with new Barrow Downs cards. Mine's just expired and I really wanted to get a Barrow-Downs Monopoly set.

It really is as portable as it looks.

How about an inflatable one?

How would that work? Inflatable electronics?

How about Barrow-Downs tea? I don't know how that would work, but it would be interesting to say the least. Besides, I'm sure there are lots of wights who like tea!

Barrow Down's sheets for the extremely obsessed.

Yes! BD Bedding! And BD wall paper, for the bedroom. Perhaps, glow in the dark?

What about Barrow Down's soda. Known as BD for short. We can actually make our own soda brand. What about a Barrow Down's styled chess set? Each piece is a different member. Problem is you could only do 12 members total. Six per each color of the chess pieces, unless you did different members for each pawn. Also Barrow Down's playing cards are another idea, or Barrow Down's monopoly each property is a popular thread.

I believe there already was a chess set made and a Monopoly game, made by Hookbill, of course, like all good photoshopped things on the BD. Just look on this thread a few pages back.
I don't think that there's been BD cola before, though...

EDIT: HA! I'VE FOUND IT!!!!!BWAHAHAhaahahahaha!
Barrow-Downs Chess

AND, I've found Monopoly too!

Yes... Green, glows in the dark and, erm... kills you (if you're not already dead, that is

).
