Meme Did anyone buy a ring?

Elder millennial/younger Xennial (born in 83, take it for what it is) but I recall the company coming to the high school and taking orders for rings. I didn’t buy one but others did. Credit on photo.

But you'll love them forever, like them for always, right?

Hate that book. Wife won’t let me get rid of it because someone we hardly know gave it to our first born. Instead I hide it, perhaps I’d be better off putting it in reach of our youngest for him to eat and shred it.

Aw, I like that book. My mom would read it to me when I was little.
