So over the past few years, my good friend – Jacob – has been sending me a set of notebooks he’s made that he scarily calls, ‘The Campbell Collection’.
While they are meant – I assume – to scare people away, they have actually had the opposite effect and encouraged people to start a conversation with me.
What’s even more interesting is that while they probably [as much as I hate to admit it] do reflect how I feel about certain people or meetings, they have allowed me to talk about my ‘issues’ with people in a way that is not combative … almost constructive.
Which all goes to show people are weird and Jacob has failed in his twisted way to honour me.
[For honour, read: ridicule]
Apparently you can now buy them on Amazon, so get your own piece of the Campbell Collection, safe in the knowledge you are taking the piss out of me and not one cent of the cost goes to me. Damnit.

Jacob is a genius.
Comment by Bazza March 6, 2020 @ 6:24 amGenius is a bit much. Mischievous maybe.
Comment by Rob March 6, 2020 @ 7:10 amIf he allowed the whole thing to be bought under the title ‘the Campbell collection’, then he might be more deserving of that title.
He’s a genius because he’s fooled you ito thinking that they’re only now available on amazon while playing you like some sort of bad influencer.
Comment by John March 6, 2020 @ 9:55 amYour last paragraph is a guarantee this will become one of amazon’s best sellers.
Comment by Pete March 6, 2020 @ 6:37 amThat’s my fear.
Comment by Rob March 6, 2020 @ 7:12 amI wonder if I could make these the official Google notepads? Very impressed with Jacob.

Comment by George March 6, 2020 @ 7:22 amAlthough it grwatly limits my quality of life, I have one overarching life principle. Namely, I refuse to buy anything that you got for free.
Comment by John March 6, 2020 @ 9:52 amYou must have a very limited amount of things you can buy.
Comment by Bazza March 6, 2020 @ 9:58 amPretty much all that’s leftis bad music, bad clothes and crappy wifi gadgets that don’t work. And I can’t afford windmills.
