5 Drawer Dresser – $30<\/h2>\n
\n

5 Drawer Dresser. In good Condition. We are moving soon and need to sell it. Call (xxx) xxx-xxxx if interested.<\/p>\n

The ordinary reader would look at this and think, “They obviously made a typo and meant to say a four drawer dresser. Twice.” But we, we are not the ordinary reader, are we? We recognize that this dresser is obviously owned by someone who is not constrained by simple physical principles; someone who is capable of postulating spaces and dimensions — and drawers! — that don’t exist. That’s right, as improbable as it may seem, this dresser is owned by, and most likely intended for, a string theorist.<\/p>\n

So what do we put in our imaginary drawer? (The Imaginary Drawers<\/em> would be a great name for a band, wouldn’t it?) Oooh, we could put our stuff<\/a> in the imaginary drawer! But if we put real stuff in the imaginary drawer, that might cause a total protonic reversal. Or something.<\/p>\n

Let’s see if anyone else has any ideas about what we can keep in magical dressers.<\/p>\n

Looking for a decent dresser<\/span> if anyone wants to get rid of one…could use one for my son and my clothes. Please email. Thank you.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This person could use four drawers for her clothes, and the extra magical fifth drawer to keep her son in. It’s like something straight out a Seinfeld episode. It’s perfect!<\/p>\n
