3 value bombs

1. It's a great idea to be very transparent, that you are low on inventory. If you do run out. I would never and then customs hold it up. You know, two weeks more than your anticipated time to receive the product, be very transparent about your lack of inventory due to the COVID-19 situation.
2. You can build your story first and then build your avatar around that but those you want people to buy into something because it represents their identity.
3. The villain is a non-degradable plastic jug. You don't have to have a person you don't always have to hate Trump or Obama or Pelosi or you know like people think that to have a villain has to be a person a villain is a trend, a movement, a diet.
