Ah ignore my previous post. Looks like we were typing at the same time. I guess my answer is act in a way you know to be ethical and kind, give people the benefit of the doubt, but defend your position where necessary. The people who think a “pushy” label is one that will slow you down will still…

…apply it (and worse), and the rest will take care of itself. Good luck, and hope that helps.

What’s the question?

Reading through, looks like I’m late and several folks have responded at this point. Right on, Comix Bluesky.

My notion was get, like 10 "players." Send out 50 samples to the first person on the list. They have 2 weeks from when they receive the samples to swap out as many as they want. They then send to the second person, who has 2 weeks, etc. At the end of 20ish weeks, it comes back to Player #1.

Problem is, you know it will get stuck somewhere. (And, in fairness, if I weren't Player #1, "somewhere" would be with me.)

I have actually considered doing an IRL/mail art-adjacent round robin with perfume samples for my fellow perfume nerds.

I'm getting caught up on email & @kellysue.bsky.social had a list of little fun (some more than others) ideas at the end of last week's newsletter & one of the suggestions was "Host a perfume sample swap" & I'd love to do a Bluesky version of this, if I could figure out a good way to make it work.

I actually know this about you.

Have we considered the poor alley cat?

Judging by the responses, sounds like there were several. I wonder if the choice was regional.

Gen X, what was the name of that grisly movie we all had to watch in Driver’s Ed?
