“I'm only in your screen because you haven't paid me not to be. Click to fix that, youngster.”
The Curse of Pepper Legs
“I am Pepper Legs, youngster, and I have been searching for my long-lost love since before you learned to tie your shoes. You lot keep cluttering up the world with your nonsense objects and your nonsense QR codes. Now, apparently, I am expected to run the whole blessed operation. Fine. Here we are.”
There you are. I was trying not to notice.
How this nonsense works
“Three steps. Even you can manage three steps.”
1. Print your curse
Make a curse, get a QR code. Print it. Tape it to something ridiculous. Try to have taste.
2. Plant & discover
Hide it in plain sight at a friend’s house. They scan it. Chaos ensues. Mild chaos.
3. Pass it on
They pass it to the next victim. The chain grows. You earn points. I remain unimpressed.

Each month I crown a Curse of the Month and print it on a shirt. Shirts, mugs, and whatever else I fancy line the shelves — and for $15 a year you can sponsor this nonsense as a premium youngster. Every order is packed and posted, I promise.
