For those of you who haven’t already noticed, the Simpson’s Complete Sixth Season DVD Box Set comes in a Homer head, instead of the normal DVD box that the last five did. Included in the box was the following piece of paper:
“For all those that fear change…
For all those anal-retentive nerds who like their DVD boxes to line up perfectly on the shelf…
For all those who dislike storing their digital media inside a hollowed-out human head, have we got a deal for you:
Just call 1-800-223-2369 for a very derivative, old-style, just-like-before box with almost nothing new or creative to annoy or terrify you. Enjoy!”
Go ahead and call the number outside of business hours, it’s entertaining. It tells you to either call back during business hours, or go to www.simpsonsbox.com, where you can print out a form and get a replacement box for $2.95 shipping and handling. One of the reasons for requesting the new box is “Anal Retentive (box must be identical).”
They know me.
*patpat* o hamdy, you silly thing.
It would have been easier to just put a regular box inside the head-box, like they did with the Battlestar Galactica (1978) DVDs.
