Who wants to buy a used cheeseball?
Generally speaking, I’m not much of a trickster. Perhaps it’s the Canadian in me not wanting to have anyone feel hurt by anything I’d do, but last year I couldn’t resist having a bit of harmless fun. I realized a photo of a partially eaten cranberry cheeseball from our Christmas party was just too good of an opportunity to pass up…so I took a photo and posted it to Facebook Marketplace, looking for a buyer. 😜
It all started with, of course, the photo of the cheeseball. There were some leftover cream cheese figs, so I wove them into the story. Text in easier-to-read form below.The inane, silly, stream-of-consciousness story that evokes Chris (Simpsons Artist).I wanted to have fun with the responses as well. 😊It was hard to tell who knew it was a joke and who didn’t. I think Skylar thought I was serious. 😆I had a five people contacted me about it, and I responded to everyone. 😜…and then I had a fun interaction with someone who got the joke! 😁
