7. I enjoy instant photography of all sorts.

This will probably be too expensive for me (I cringe a little every time I push the shutter release of my old Polaroid Super Shooter...) but it will be fun to watch.

11. It's a great print, unfortunately,

Its designer case is rather bulky, somewhat risque and prone to spoiling as its two carved unicorns in flagrante delicto, both are wearing large saddle bags that are small pieces of raw steak sewn together, large feather boas, and sun glasses carved out of real cheese. Total weight, 40.3 pounds.

12. Does it come packaged in a giant egg?
