What sort of real man needs a crowbar to open a cardboard box?

There's nothing convenient about a sturdy, wooden Man Crate sealed firmly with ill-intentions. This crate will frustrate even the most patient of men to the brink of defeat. If he can break the crate before the crate breaks him, his heroism will be displayed, and his reward earned.

is this thing like... a box that's difficult to open, but with "manly" items inside?

Bein' Sean Bean (LocalGarda), Saturday, 25 March 2017 13:47 (nine years ago)

pretty sure my nieces get these, or at least a brand very close to it. i visited recently and they were playing w their different crafts crates. the younger one had a set that was felt butterfly wings she could decorate and wear like a cape, the older one had a curious makeshift tv setup that was a trio of RGB led lights and a semi-transparent screen you could drawn on w erasable marker that when all set up produced a cool reversed lofi projected image. she immediately started creating her own tv Naruto adventures =) def cool rainy day stuff for modern kids.

I’ve done this for my daughter and my nephew and they have both loved it. Highly recommend the Kiwi Crates. Very fun and great for a rainy day.

We missed out on the subscription meat package they’ve been pushing over at Gizmodo & co. It’s some meat, plus two pounds of ground beef! Be the meat chef!

What if a Serial Killer delivered a package to your doorstep each month?

@ Hunt A Killer, we provide the answer to that question...

We send out monthly packages, and each one builds upon the other. Over time, you collect the evidence, build your theories and, if you can, solve the mystery before the fictional killer strikes again....

fwiw I decided to do a trial of both stitch fix and trunk club bc I'm sick of clothes shopping both in store and online. Will report back.

longtime caller, first time listener (man alive), Tuesday, 8 October 2019 20:42 (six years ago)

Should be a service that orders all such boxes on your behalf, sends most shit back, and sends you the best of.

Tart Prepper (Sufjan Grafton), Tuesday, 8 October 2019 21:05 (six years ago)

maybe could also add a pouch of clean urine to the "best of" box for your cocaine habit

Tart Prepper (Sufjan Grafton), Tuesday, 8 October 2019 21:07 (six years ago)

7 shallow boxes of cat litter sent every monday. Each box would be biodegradable and embedded with Zanzibar gem seeds. You'd take yesterday's litter box to work to throw away in one of several hundred pots placed in the office, therby planting another beautiful zanzibar gem for the office.

Tart Prepper (Sufjan Grafton), Tuesday, 8 October 2019 21:15 (six years ago)

I don't really foresee sticking with them as I don't need that much clothing. It's more like maybe an alternative approach to trying to get the 1-2 sweaters 2 pairs of pants and 2 shirts I could use this fall without just looking at the same three sites/brands again.

longtime caller, first time listener (man alive), Tuesday, 8 October 2019 21:19 (six years ago)

ok just saw my trunk club preview and already kinda thinking about dropping it. I guess it's just a bunch of full price stuff from nordstrom? The stuff they picked is fine but def on the pricey side -- I've never paid over like $80 for twill pants and they're suggesting pairs that cost $145 and $190. A lot of this stuff will also probably be available marked down in the winter sale in two months anyway, so I may just pass. Also they were going to include a pair of those dumbass Cole Haan spaceman dress shoes.

longtime caller, first time listener (man alive), Tuesday, 8 October 2019 21:58 (six years ago)

yeah, i think the trick there is you need a nordstrom's credit card. they waive the stylist fee but still charge you $190 for the pants.

Tart Prepper (Sufjan Grafton), Tuesday, 8 October 2019 22:14 (six years ago)

I always wondered who actually subscribes to those “we pick out clothes for you” boxes ... it’s like the opposite of me

sarahell, Wednesday, 9 October 2019 03:22 (six years ago)

I feel like there's such a tiny chance they'd fit right! Every month would be an exercise to trooping to the post office to return 80% of it and hoping what got sent back was actually the right size.

Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 9 October 2019 11:03 (six years ago)

Signed up for Birchbox earlier in the year and have been pleased with it. Wanted to get an overview of the grooming products out there, so sampler-sized products fit the bill. A handful have had excessive cologne or chemical (like Ajax) smells that I dislike, i.e. one clay deodorant that domintated my nose during the day, so they get tossed ASAP. Some repetition over the months, getting the same Jack Black or Kiehl's product twice, but not annoying.

Have found some good stuff that I've gone on to buy the full size products, like Ursa Major face wipes, Kiehl's Facial Fuel (cleanser), Proraso shaving cream, and Marvis toothpaste. The Marvis toothpastes are especially nice, Italian, and better textured than the US Crest/Colgate gels I normally buy. Actually feel my teeth squeak while brushing. Licorice, ginger mint, jasmine, etc - all not overpowering in taste. Bought the variety mid-size pack of 6, like them all, and will be deciding which full-size to follow up with, once those run out.

The Bespoke Post box looks interesting, but haven't subbed there.

I have the marvis karakum flavor (supposed to be orange juice and cardamom) and I wished it was more cardamom-y.

Yerac, Wednesday, 9 October 2019 14:49 (six years ago)

That sounds interesting! Amazon only showed the six kinds in that variety pack.
