Paper towels! Thank you!

Drugstore.com periodically offers free shipping for orders of $25 or more, and I usually take advantage of it. Their prices are pretty good, and I order things that I would buy normally, like toothpaste and razor blades, and I also order bulky paper things like toilet paper and paper towels.

The thing about the paper towels is, they've got my brand (Bounty), but you don't have any choice over the design. The roll I got yesterday is printed with little hand-holding angels and comments about friendship: "Thanks for being a good friend." "When you need a friend, I'm here." "Old friends are the best friends."

That just seems so weird to me. "Thanks for being a good friend?" I mean, it's not likely that you're going to gift a friend with a roll of paper towels instead of a greeting card, is it? "Here. I was thinking of you."
