From the rich person craigslist y'all found. The most exquisite poker chips ever.

120 calibrated slices of an ancient asteroid that landed on earth approx 800.000 years ago. Enhanced with diamonds, rubies, sapphires and gold to create the finest gaming chips ever made. With Siberian woolly mammoth enclosed. Packed in hand stitched Swedish calf skin, Swedish Reindeer suede lining and locked with handmade 18K white gold hinges and locks.

They made poker chips out of effing asteroids and wooly mammoths. This is the sort of shit that bad writers describe when they want to prove how rich some guy is and I roll my eyes because ugh. That doesn’t exist. Apparently it does.

    I can’t tell if this would be the best thing or the worst thing to show my brother.
