Scopin' Out Scopes

I thought I was ordering mouthwash.

I don't know what happened. I guess I was a little clickhappy. A little too quick with my mouse. But next thing I knew, I had a Redfield 20-60x80mm Spotted Scope sitting on my doorstep.

I didn't know what to make of it at first. All I could think of was that my mouth felt dirty from all of the days I'd been waiting for the mouthwash I'd thought I'd ordered.

After opening the box and looking at my new Redfield Spotted Scope, I realized that it was an instrument used for spotting things, meaning I could use it to find objects that would make my breath smell better!

So I took the scope and walked around the apartment, viewing the nooks and crannies of my home in 60x magnification. I didn't have much luck. All that really happened was I saw a bunch of dust and dirt, and I ran into my coffee table a couple times.

A few stubbed toes and zero breath fresheners later, I was still suffering from seriously bad breath. Stumped why I hadn't had any success, I looked at the Redfield Spotted Scope's product details only to see that it was intended to be a) used with a tripod and b) used in wide-open country. No wonder it wasn't working in my 200 square foot apartment.

Exhausted and defeated, I gave up and flopped onto my couch. I tried to take a nap, but I kept being bothered by something underneath my cushion. I reached my hand underneath and found a mint! Well, that worked out.
