I tore the warning label off my pillow. Isn’t that illegal? I mean, it’s not like I tore off the label to my mattress. So would a pillow be a lesser offense? Do you have to serve time for that?

Struuter,

Good news: It says the consumer may remove the ticket.

Sn-man grabs his SO’s body pillow, wielding it Darth Maul style, he knocks Gomez up side the head and sweeps Struuter off her feet. Sn-man is slightly confused by the voice in his head whispering: beware the dark-side of the fluff.

If you’re going to have a pillow fight, you must structure it like this one
