either they are BACK or this is a SECOND PAIR OF LEGS

me, haunted by the dumpster legs

I know a lot of you really want me to go grab those legs and I am considering it

So I went to go grab them but there was someone in the parking lot and I am a shy and jittery person, so to allay suspicion I walked around the block and came back

Same person was in the parking lot. Gave me a look that said “I see you, criminal”

So now I’m back home

Debating whether to return under cover of night, like a completely normal person just out to pick up a pair of plastic legs

Tried to explain to an irl person why I need the legs and they were just like “well good luck”

It turns out there is no classy way to carry the lower half of a plastic person

the same person who saw me earlier CAME OUT OF THE BUILDING as I was scuttling out of the parking lot

and he said in a gravelly voice “I’m glad SOMEBODY wanted those legs”

and I said “*I* wanted them”

and it was a moment of pure and beautiful connection between strangers

okay now I have the legs so uh

it turns out it’s weirdly awkward to Lysol a mannequin’s crotch

ideas for what to do now
