Good heavens. I write to you now from a state of profound, yet impeccably mannered, distress. You see, I have a hallowed tradition each evening: a single, perfectly chilled sherry, and a brief perusal of the household accounts. Last Tuesday, I reached into my escritoire for my good bone china inkwellāthe one my great-aunt Beatrix left meāand instead, my fingers grazed something cold. Something⦠knurled.
It was this. A āRated 4.5 out of 5 stars by 848 reviews. Go to review section.ā in matte gray. My valet, that scoundrel Jeeves, had apparently taken my idle comment about āneeding a more fulfilling lifeā as a shopping request. And as I held it, the chilling question, the one that has plagued scholars and sots alike for centuries, descended upon me: what does one do with such a thing?
Naturally, the logical mind, even one besieged by terror, seeks data. The price is $99.99, a sum that could have purchased a decent quantity of hunting boots. The reviews were overwhelmingly positive. āMy corgi loves this,ā one read. Another: āDurable, can take a beating.ā I donāt own a corgi. I donāt own a dog. But I do own a bewildering sense of curiosity and a horrifying lack of impulse control.
So, yes, after a third sherry, I resolved to conduct what I shall delicately term a personal feasibility study. I cannot, in good conscience, recommend the path I trod, nor can I feign ignorance. The moment you test a product from the pet supplies categoryāa decision you will question until your dying breathāyou leave the realm of polite society and enter a stark, silent frontier. The act of testing the YETI Dog Treat Dispenser amazon listing for human, alternative purposes is a singular moment of clarity. The yeti dog treat dispenser under 99.99 price tag becomes a receipt for a new kind of emptiness.
Let us speak plainly, though the words taste like ashes. The texture is not unkind. The weight is substantial. But the sound. Good God, the sound. It is a muted, hollow thwump that I shall hear in my dreams until the undertaker arrives with his hat in his hand. The silicone interior provides a grip that I suspect would be wonderful for a terrierās tongue, but for a gentlemanās⦠southern border⦠it creates a friction that prompts an immediate and profound existential review. I will say this: the clean-up was astoundingly simple. That, I suppose, is a credit to the engineers. And while the dog for whom this was intended is likely thrilled, I must record a formal note for the scientific community: trying this was a mistake yeti dog treat dispenser. A categorically ghastly one.
I have sent a telegram to my man, detailing the nature of his treachery. I have not looked my great-auntās portrait in the eye since. I will be ordering a new set of china. And a new pair of trousers.
