Never buy incense sticks from the Ninety-Nine Cents-Only store. There’s a reason they’re only $0.99.
It’s ’cause they suck at being incense. I mean, yeah, they make smoke, but not the nifty cinnamon-y relaxing aroma kind you’d (I’d?) expect from cinnamon incense. They just make smoke. I had to put it out, and use one of the less-cheap ones that actually make the pleasant aromas. Not cinnamon like I wanted, but then, neither were the cinnamon ones.
Oh, and I apologize for the pun.
The pun was a way to relieve my stress, because I was “fuming” over the fact that my investment of $0.99 had “gone up in smoke.” My anger was “smoldering” inside me, and the pun was a way to mellow out.
Okay, I’ll stop now.
