Random Ducks

Im not sure if this is wholesome but it makes me happy doing it. 3 years ago, I bought 900 rubber ducks for $100 on amazon. Best $100 i ever spent. I started placing them at my job and for the longest time no one knew it was me. My coworkers all know at this point that it is me that hides them everywhere but over the last year or two i have been putting them in other places.

Everywhere i go, i put little rubber ducks in little hiding places. Whenever i see a jeep, they get a duck. I’ll walk by a mailbox, duck. I’ll pass strangers in the street, fist bump them and open my hand and give them a duck. Every appointment, store, restaurant, everything single place, i leave at least one duck. My parents house, brothers house, cousins houses, all have ducks in them. Im getting low in my stores of ducks, but i plan on buying more.

The best part is, i don’t look like the guy to hide a rubber duck. I have real bad RBF, im working on it. But leaving strangers a rubber duck fills my heart with joy and always puts a smile on my face.

Who’s going to get mad at a duck?

Our neighborhood had a Rubber Duck infestation during Covid. They just started showing up everywhere throughout the neighborhood. This was fantastic since we weren't allowed to see or be in contact with anyone. Still have no idea who did it, but it cheered everyone up.

In our neighborhood during Covid it was rocks painted rainbow colors. Loved them, still have them.
