It zips! It clips!

About a two months ago, the plastic strip that attached to my coat's zipper pull broke off. A week later, fed up with having nearly nothing to grip when I wanted to zip my jacket, I attached a large paperclip to the pull.

It really stands out. But to this day, nobody's noticed.

You should attach little reminder notes to yourself on the paper clip and see if anyone says anything.

I reckon they'd just think it was a lift pass, which is a pretty common sight around these parts...

I prefer a bit of pipe cleaner myself.

There are so many fun and useful things one can do with paperclips

pure and utter brilliance people. pipe cleaner does sound colorful. paperclip comes in handy if you have some papers that need fastening and no stapler. and leaving notes to yourself is good too.

and hey stan, i noticed. so now you can't say no one noticed.
