So this year we decided to try to make the best out for christmas to spite the recession, you know for the kids... We went out and bought them a bunch of toys and while at the store saw a slinky which caught my eye. Since I hadn't had a slinky since I was a kid i grabbed it out of some older womens hand (black friday style)... long story short we get home and I decide to show my kids this awesome toy I had bought for myself you know to make them jealous and when i opened it my slinky did not only not slink but it did nothing. They call it a slinky jr. but should be a slinky nothing... I mean this thing couldn't go down stairs because of how small it was. For the next 3 days or so I locked myself in the basement determined to build a stairwell for my slinky to slink on. I made the perfect case of stairs and set the slinky on top. I ran to go get my wife, kids and even had a few neighbors come over. I was sure I was about to get to rub my new slinky into their jealous faces. Once they were all over I gave the slinky a little push so it would slink down the stairs. Instead of slinking it fell over and sorta rolled down them. Instead of a jealous wife, kids and neighbors they all just sorta laughed about it. I am so angry with this company and their rip off of a slinky. I ended up giving it to my kids and took back the rest of their presents so that they can learn the valuable lesson of being ripped off. I WARN YOU DO NOT BUY THIS UNLESS YOUR ARE THE GRINCH!!!

After reading your post I can honestly say it's probably the best laugh I had all day.

Look on the bright side you got a new set of steps out of it.

I really, REALLY hope this is some kind of stupid joke. If not, you need to seek immediate help through your local mental health center. You have serious problems and I suspect your wife and kids are paying for it.
