I bought 3 anyways... can't go wrong with $2!
Ah, heck! In for 3 as well.
If I somehow decide that my manliness is threatened by having silly monkeys instead of green-with-envy (and I can't figure out a good way of dying them), then they'll just get donated to the Comfort tent of the local Occupation (or, failing that, a charitable thrift store).
My colored box^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H qube has turned dark red^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H brown. I don't really need to show off a list of everything I've wooted anymore, do I?

Seriously, folks, my mom broke her ankle trying to get to the phone in one of these disasters waiting to happen.
Sooo, they sell millions of these (various brands) over the past two years and we only hear of your mom's injury? I am sorry for the ankle break, as it is a long and painful recovery. But the only disaster seems to be in your house.

Which reminds me, did you here about the airline hostess that backed into a turboprop??? Disaster.

"It's a friggin static magnet. You put that thing on and move around just a little bit and you'll feel like you're Thor. You shoot lightning bolts from your finger tips at any metal object that is grounded... That crappy part is it isn't as cool as it sounds, it hurts... a lot, like your finger/hand goes numb for a few minutes. "

When I was a kid and all Mom could find in my size was polyester pants I became quite the Van der Graaf generator. I found ways to dissipate static that were noticeably less painful; any metal jewelry (in my case a watch with metal band, and later a high school ring) makes a _great_ discharge point. A metal-body pen will also work though you'd have to either carry it all the time or draw it at need. Just make sure when you're moving about your environment to always lead with your metal.
I suppose these days one of those silly piercings would also serve, depending on if you wanted to rub your navel on the stair rail or kiss the lamp before you touch it with your fingers...
Look upon my Avatar, ye whiny, and despair!
