Day 282

What is this!?
Who keeps doing this!?
What the librarian's haircut is a Patronus!?

I demand answers!

Roll the THREEHUNDREDANDSIXTEEFIVE T-shirt challenge back to Day 272 and you'll find me wearing a paprika (yes, paprika) coloured T-shirt donated by Mental Floss. I say donated, but I can't be certain that it actually was, as I only discovered it sitting on my desk staring back at me one morning with no note, no explanation - nothing.
Fast forward to today, and the same damn thing has happened again! A Mental Floss T-shirt, no note, no explanation, nothing.
What's really perplexing, aside from the design which I'll come on to in a moment, is the fact that the Mental Floss magazine of amazing facts and knowledge is an American outfit, and any T-shirt-based transactions with them tend to be operations of dense complexity (I still have a package trapped in Customs limbo that I can't do anything about - see the post just after Day 273). All these Mental Floss tees on the other hand seem to teleporting in no problem!

I only discovered this was a Mental Floss tee by the way, when I Googled the text in the design to decipher its meaning. It transpires that a Patronus is some sort of magical projection from the Harry Potter films that acts as a personal guardian, and takes the form of the animal with which you share the most affinity. If you are a knowledgeable Mental Floss fan, it stands to reason that your 'spirit animal' would be a bookworm.
As I am a relatively dense individual, my Patronus would also most likely be a worm, but more of the regular dirt burrowing variety.
