1. “This book nook my mother got on eBay”
2. “I was replacing a battery which was causing me issues, so I decided I might as well make the back of my phone transparent. I used razor blades and only lost half my sanity and some blood in the process. Worth it!”
3. “The town we vacationed in has red street lights as not to mess with the wildlife.”
