NEW YORK – A New York City man has designed a calendar that will drive Bubble Wrap fanatics popping-mad.
The Daily News of New York reports in Thursday editions that Stephen Turbek is selling a poster-size calendar covered with the plastic bubbles. Customers can pop a bubble each day to mark the passage of time.
The Brooklyn man says he has sold thousands of Bubble Calendars. A handmade calendar with paper backing is available online for $30 and a plastic version costs $50.
Turbek says it makes a perfect gift for obsessive people — as long as they don't pop the whole year on the first day they get it.

what is wrong with you!?

on a side note, as anybody ever seen the show monk? he's an OCD detective and in one episode he sees a giant roll of bubble wrap and he feels the need to pop it before he can get anything else done. so the captain of the police makes 2 officers pop the bubble wrap for him lolz. it was so funny

I watched a couple episodes of Monk, didn't catch the one your talking about though. Monk does nothing for me in terms of entertainment .
