gooseberryhigh | Mr. Merrill's up to something.

Today after lunch Mr. Merrill sets up a large box in the atrium. (He was a big fan of the dance, by the way! He started an enthusiastic standing ovation even as the dancers and musicians were returning to their seats as though nothing had happened.)

"Now what I need from you kids is very important," he explains seriously. "I need all of you to find your silliest item of clothing, and then I need you to put it in this box." He pats it for emphasis. It's a bottomless wooden box with a lid that lifts on heavy-duty hinges. Items put in can't be taken back out, in the interest of stopping potential thieves, but Mr. Merrill will retrieve items for you if you change your mind.

He promises that all items will be returned to you over the weekend, but does suggest that no one donate anything they couldn't live without.

What this means is that we would like the students of Gooseberry to reply to this post with a description (or a link to a photo) of an unusual, silly, ugly or unique item of clothing (or accessory) that they might have in their possession. You'll find out why tomorrow!

BRIBERY: The person who donates Mr. Merrill's favorite* item of clothing/accessory will get a Felix Felicis Laced candy, as detailed here. You have until midnight tonight (11:59 PM 4/20).

The same character may make multiple donations.

i was like 50 tabs deep on my riley search when i realized she loves every single thing i had open and needed to start over

Jeffy just thinks this is the funniest shirt. T-REX!! TRYING TO DO PUSH-UPS!!! GET IT???

After this last season, Rosy's pretty sure her Lakers hat is the most ridiculous thing she owns.

honestly the remaining EJBs* should all betray each other and submit something from someone else's wardrobe

*wilde is too cool and ironic and self aware

by the end of it they've all dumped the entirety of each other's wardrobes into the box

Pink petticoat

NO MORE SEQUINS CARNEY INTO THE BOX IT GOES

and then later they all turn up at merrill's office like ".... can i have my boat shoes back :("

"this is for your own good quayle"

If someone was perhaps hoping Cameron might toss something like this into the box, and that it might never come back, they are both mistaken and unappreciative of bold fashion.

What he ends up throwing in is this. Where did he get them? Does he wear them? How did he find such tall tights? Why do they have his face on them? Who knows.
