168 tags? What is Doug trying to tell us?

The number 168 is lucky because of the sentence that it phonetically sounds similar to in Cantonese. It sounds similar to “one path to prosperity ”: 1 is “one”, 6 is “path”, and 8 sounds like “prosperity/luck”. Therefore, you tend to see the number 168 at Casinos, on license plates, and other novelty items in China.

Doug is telling us he wants to gamble in a Chinese Casino, or wants you to gamble in that Chinese Casino.

Maybe Doug wants me to invest in a Chinese Casino with him. The house always wins, right?

That’s a lot of tags. Have you considered scattering them on your bed and rolling around in them?

Did you get anything in the box?

That’s a great load of stuff! Cool Woot Bday shirt too.
BTW the can’s of tuna were also items from last year DDC boxes. Mine was still good and tasty with noodles.

Also: By getting rid of these tshirts I hope that doesn’t mean Dave is leaving. Replaced by Doug? Oh dear.

When I storm the Seattle office, I’ll track Dave down and chain him to a desk or something so he can’t leave.

A shirt tag of armor?

I can confirm a 3X ! Woot-shirt is being worn at this moment, scrolling through the thread, as a good losing lurker would do. Coffee is paired nicely with the shirt, forum dirt, and a bit of jealousy.

I actually bought one of those from a woot!off. I’ll use them to keep my glasses from washing off if/when I kayak on a river (and by “river” I’m meaning gentle stream)

Congrats, peace!

Oh lleh yes this!

Or better, create a thread on woot! They’ll sell like crazy hotcakes.

Magnetic bookmarks for all us woot!oids?
And cute pic. And I think @daveinwarshington is right, Doug is saying relax with these awesome blue headphones!

I’m thinking a 20s’ style flapper dress.

Hey! I just had an idea! Y’alles can send me your shirt tags, and I can use them for my sad little basement library/bedroom instead of buying vinyl flooring!

I said the same thing…they would be a really fun fringe, but my husband pointed out my measly 360-something tags won’t be enough to get a flapper dress done. I’m now thinking a pretty garland to decorate my friends house. You know, something that would be cross between this:


And this:
