“I find, as I get older, my appreciation for boxes increases.”
“Boxes? You mean like gift boxes?”
“No. Standard cardboard. Like the double-corrugated, eight-fold, 14-gauge box you have here. That’s a good box.”
“Hrm. Wonder why that is…”
“The corrugation and number of walls determine its ECT limits. That stands for edge crush test, if you were wondering.”
“I wasn’t. But what I do wonder… do you think this fascination has something to do with coffins? Since that’s technically a ‘box.’ And your last one.”
“No. I wouldn’t think too much into it.”
“You brought it up.”
“Only because you have an banker’s box over there missing its lid. I will burn down the barn in which you were born for such blasphemy.”
