It’s gyp, not jip. It’s an anti-gypsy slur. Sort of like welshing someone, but less pc because gypsies look different.

What do you mean slur?
That’s as silly as the time that dude got all crazy on me at the reservation when I told him not to be an
Indian-giver. How was I supposed to know I could only pay for the cigarettes in cash.
Another classic from the back pages of Boy’s Life Magazinegthat I always coveted: the hovercraft made with a vacuum cleaner (you just bought the instructions).
lol, yeah I remember Sea Monkeys, I always wanted to get those.
…those were brine shrimp weren’t they?
I even bought a “pet rock” one time,
there must be some old guy in Florida right about now
drinking a Mojito on his yacht with those 4 bucks I threw away.
“I’ve been told that I have a wacky package.”
Is it a sticker?
Can you trade it?

Did anyone collect the Wacky Packages sticker trading cards?
I still have mine….30.

Legion, no, I never did that, but I did get the Sea Monkeys. They’re all grown up now and going to college.
