Lot of Scissors – $18<\/h2>\n
\n

This lot of scissors contains 75 pairs of fiscar, academic and others. What a great deal!!! Cash only, pick-up only. Sold as-is. Contact if necessary.<\/p>\n

\nThat is, in fact, a lot of scissors. The title is correct, both literally and figuratively.<\/p>\n

Let’s leave aside the question of “Why would anyone need that many scissors?” You never know when you’re going to have a scissor-related emergency, and having 75 pairs of scissors can help avert many a crisis.<\/p>\n

Personally, I’m more amused at the great care and detail in the arrangement of the display of the lot of scissors. These scissors either belong to Martha Stewart, or the person’s a bit OCD. (Actually, those two aren’t necessarily mutually exclusive, now that I think about it.)

\nHowever, they weren’t good enough. The first thing I noticed when I saw the picture was that they didn’t maintain a pattern in the two single lines of scissors at the bottom. C’mon, folks: do the scissors on the top line face left or right? And are the scissors on the bottom line supposed to be placed opposite them, or casually in between? The blue scissors sort of stuck in there at the bottom ruin the whole thing for me. It’s all wrong. I can’t possibly buy these scissors, displayed so asymmetrically like that. My scissor-related emergencies will continue unabated. I need a hug.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
