November Prize Drawing!!!
By Marvo | November 8, 2005
It’s November, so you know what that means…Thanksgiving.
A time when we stuff our faces with turkey, stuffing, and pumpkin pie. Unless you’re vegetarian, then you might stuff your face with Tofurkey, a faux turkey made out of tofu. No matter how you stuff your face this Thanksgiving, one thing is for certain…leftovers.
Well two lucky Impulsive Buy readers will be storing and transporting their Thanksgiving leftovers in style because the Impulsive Buy is giving away two sets of the Hefty Serve ‘n Store plates and bowls.
Just remember to not microwave them.
November also means that Christmas is coming up. Is your office having a Secret Santa again this year and you want to give something better than the used Hillary Duff CD you gave away last year? The Impulsive Buy has got your back.
Another lucky Impulsive Buy reader will receive a copy of the book Stooples: Office Tools for Hopeless Fools. Of course, if you win it, make sure you read it before you re-gift it.
To enter this month’s prize drawing, just leave a comment for THIS post with the words “TPS reports” in it and whatever else you would like to say.
Please fill out the email field, because I’ll be emailing the winners for their mailing addresses. Don’t worry about the shipping, I’ll take care of it.
The Impulsive Buy will start accepting entries for the drawing on Tuesday, November 8, 2005 and stop accepting entries on Sunday, November 13, 2005. Only one entry allowed per person. The drawing is ONLY open to those in the United States, US Military APOs, and Canada. (To the rest of the planet, I’m sorry.)
Good luck!
Fine Print: The Impulsive Buy promises your email address will not be used to send you spam about prescription drugs from Canada. The Impulsive Buy also promises your mailing address will not be used to send you information about seminars that will help turn you into a millionaire overnight. Bribes will not be accepted. The Impulsive Buy will not be responsible for lost mail, premature balding, or you not being able to find parking at the mall during Black Friday.
(Editor’s Note: Thanks to Charlie Kondek from Hass MS&L for sending me the Hefty Serve ‘n Store sets to give away and thanks to Adam Najberg, co-author of Stooples, for sending me a copy of his book to give away.)

Oh! Oh! I want Stooples! Because–even though the world of TPS Reports is behind me now–you can never have too many chuckles about office supplies.
November 8th, 2005 at 3:13 am
TPS reports? What TPS reports?
November 8th, 2005 at 3:14 am
The Impulsive Buy provides everything I need when I take a break from writing these darn TPS reports.

November 8th, 2005 at 3:39 am
I had a nightmare about TPS reports last night.
But…but…but HOW will you choose the winning names? That’s always my favorite part of these prize drawing descriptions.

I gave those TPS Reports to my boss this morning. She pretended like she knew what they were.
November 8th, 2005 at 4:06 am
The newest innovations are available to you now - TPS reports are for sale for the low, low price of just $19.95.
But wait! Call now and you’ll get another set of TPS reports for free!

Well, OK, I’ll give you your TPS reports, but if you move my desk one more time, then then then I’m going to quit, yeah I’ll quit. And then I’ll set the building on fire.
November 8th, 2005 at 7:16 am

Memo to Impulsive Buy:
I have yet to receive your TPS Report. As it was due last week, with standard cover sheet, please forward it to me posthaste, as I need it for the upcoming Cost Management Survey. Any further delay may result in a negative review by the review board.
Thank you and have a very nice day!!
November 8th, 2005 at 11:00 am
I agree Panthosette! Canadian TPS reports are more polite!
November 8th, 2005 at 11:24 am
TPS reports are kindof like an off-brand box of chocolate. You never know if it’s going to be bullshit flavor or not.
November 8th, 2005 at 11:48 am
I would rather fill out TPS reports than wear flair.
November 8th, 2005 at 11:51 am
You know Peter, you’ve been missing a lot of your TPS reports…
I wouldn’t say I’ve been MISSING them, Bob.
November 8th, 2005 at 11:56 am
I have no opinions on TPS reports except they don’t sound fun.
November 8th, 2005 at 12:14 pm
Yay for Prize Drawings!

November 8th, 2005 at 2:28 pm
TPS Reports. Yes.
November 8th, 2005 at 2:38 pm
Hello, Peter. What’s happening? We need to talk about your TPS reports.
Yeah. Uh, did you get that memo?
Yeah. I got the memo. And I understand the policy. The problem is, I just forgot this one time. And I’ve already taken care of it so it’s not even a problem anymore.
Yeah. It’s just that we’re putting new coversheets on all the TPS reports *before* they go out now. So if you could just remember to do that from now on, that’d be great. All right
November 8th, 2005 at 3:18 pm
i missed the tps report memo.
November 8th, 2005 at 3:58 pm
Damn TPS reports. *waves fist in air like grandpa Simpson*
Stooples book. *Ex-ce-l-l-ent (like Mr. Burns)*
November 8th, 2005 at 4:28 pm
actually, we’re using new covers on all our tps reports . . . did you get the memo?
November 8th, 2005 at 4:29 pm
Uhm… yeah. I’m going to need Mr. Lumberg to shove the TPS reports up his ass. Ok? Yeah.
November 8th, 2005 at 4:33 pm
Adding to my previous comment to say that when I worked in tech support, the building looked just like the Initech building. I hated my bosses –they moved my desk too many times. At first it was over near the window. And I could see the squirrels and they were merry.
I did not staple my TPS reports with a red swingline.
November 8th, 2005 at 4:48 pm
I think that I should win because it is my birthday this month and I have a million TPS reports that are due.
November 8th, 2005 at 4:52 pm
TPS reports are so hot right now…

November 8th, 2005 at 7:24 pm
I need to watch Office Space for the sole purpose of knowing what TPS reports are.
November 8th, 2005 at 7:29 pm
“TPS reports, PBS cohorts — I ain’t touchin’ that shEEt.”
–quoteth I my quasi-evil less-than-conjoined twin.
that is all.
November 8th, 2005 at 8:04 pm
I know, I know…I forgot the cover letter for the TPS reports. It’ll never happen again, and if you tell me about it one more time, then I burn the place down and demolish the always-broken fax machine.
November 8th, 2005 at 8:29 pm
TPS reports are the bomb!
November 8th, 2005 at 10:57 pm

TPS reports
November 9th, 2005 at 5:04 am
i do not want to enter the drawing, but i really want to say thanks. thank you for that picture that nearly made me laugh out loud as i sit at my desk and look busy. every time i try to fax anything, i want to have an office space moment with my fax machine. doesnt help when you have to deal with military vs. civilian numbers, as well as many many international faxes.
so, thank you during this time of thanksgiving!
November 9th, 2005 at 7:11 am
yeah, about those tps reports…
November 9th, 2005 at 7:35 am
“TPS Reports”
good, now that THAT’s out of the way. Marvo, i think that I should FINALLY win the monthly prize drawing. I’m canadian and we don’t even have thanksgiving in november, so i’m automatically more needy of the prize than all american contestants.
kthnxbye
November 9th, 2005 at 7:37 am
TPS Reports.
Extra info: I so wanted to jump in to the tv and help beat down the fax machine!
November 9th, 2005 at 8:27 am
Back in college TPS Reports was code for cocaine… not that i did any TPS Reports or anything…
November 9th, 2005 at 9:55 am
you haven’t been using the new cover sheets for the TPS reports, Marvo.
November 9th, 2005 at 10:05 am
Um, yeah…about those TPS Reports…yeah…
November 9th, 2005 at 11:33 am
Yeah. It’s just that we’re putting new coversheets on all the TPS reports *before* they go out now. So if you could just remember to do that from now on, that’d be great.
Oh, and next Friday… is Hawaiian shirt day… so, you know, if you want to you can go ahead and wear a Hawaiian shirt and jeans.
November 9th, 2005 at 12:12 pm
It’s just that we’re putting a coverletter on all our TPS reports now, didn’t you get the memo? Yeah, I’ll just make sure you get another copy of that.
November 9th, 2005 at 12:36 pm
Enter me please!
November 9th, 2005 at 1:17 pm
TPS REPORTS.
Anyway… Marvo, you know you’re blocked by the school web filtering program, Websense? Yeah, you’re blocked under the category “Supplements and Unregulated Drugs” or something like that. I know it’s “Supplements and Unregulated” something, meaning they think you advertise herbal cures and steroids.
Tried getting on your site at school today, that’s what I got.
November 9th, 2005 at 1:21 pm
WTF is a TPS report?
November 9th, 2005 at 2:23 pm

Hope you are well!!!

November 9th, 2005 at 3:51 pm
I should say “TPS Reports” instead of just opening your eyes to TPS of Oz.
November 9th, 2005 at 4:07 pm
You know what I think I’ll probably get from my Secret Santa? A TPS report and some Skittles. Like, not even a whole bag. Half a bag, at most.
November 9th, 2005 at 5:17 pm
After everyone left the office last night I took all the TPS Reports and covered my naked body with them–and no one will ever know.
November 9th, 2005 at 6:14 pm
TPS reports are way cool!
November 10th, 2005 at 2:00 am
TPS reports … mmm, tasty.
November 10th, 2005 at 3:55 am

November 10th, 2005 at 6:14 am
Haha… TPS Reports….arent they the best?!?!?

November 10th, 2005 at 8:15 am

Oh yeah, TPS reports.
November 10th, 2005 at 12:15 pm

November 10th, 2005 at 2:50 pm
i used to always eat off of paper/plastic plates until i realized that it’s more economical to just wash a regular plate. i also realized that i’m a cheap bastard. regardless, i’m paying my respects to veterans everywhere by not doing any tps reports tomorrow.
November 10th, 2005 at 4:12 pm
If you could please send me the most recent TPS report, I’d be more than glad to show you my “O” face.
November 11th, 2005 at 6:12 am
My boss totally sounds like that. No TPS reports in my office, though.
November 11th, 2005 at 9:15 am
TPS reports? We don’t need no stinkin’ TPS reports!
November 11th, 2005 at 10:53 am
DAMMIT! My dog ATE my TPS REPORT!! Wait…I don’t have a dog…

November 11th, 2005 at 1:56 pm

November 13th, 2005 at 4:49 pm
hi marvin. i’m not entering this prize drawing because i don’t really care to get hefty store bowls or whatever they’re called so i’m trying hard not to say tps - oops, nearly said it!
i learned the context of the picture you posted - probably the last of your readers to do so - as i just saw the movie last night. it’s awesome and funny! loved it!
November 14th, 2005 at 12:04 am
Sorry, entries will no longer be accepted.
Thank you to all of those who entered this month’s prize drawing!
