Boxes changed Johnny’s life. First came the box of wine they found under his table at work, followed by the box he took with him, along with the termination of his contract.Â
Soon after, he got a box of his belongings, and the doors of his own home shut forever behind him.Â
Then, there was that one cardboard box serving as an excuse for a shelter.
And finally, when the end came, he didn't get a box to rest in.Â
Raccoon note: When uploading this story, I was looking for a picture of a box on Unsplash, and many pictures of cats inside boxes popped up. So please. Someone write a response with cats and boxes. Thank you.
Hi everyone, welcome to my unboxing video.

The cubic volume of this container is eighty cubic mg. It's four by four by five. Just enough for eighty words. No more and no less. I'm very picky about the details.

Like a blood vessel. Like an accordian playing a tarantella, jumping around but sticking the landing.
