Postitch

Created by: lumina

Pronunciation: post/itch

Sentence: Lea was sure she was finally on top of things. Feeling so organized and up to date on all of her errands, paperwork, phone calls etc. Things that were not done yet, were in line and in order for when she had the time.

She was devastated when he took just a few steps in, looked around and said, "Oh man, dude...you've got the worst case of Postitch I've ever seen, and I haven't been vaccinated!" Needless to say, after he said, "See ya when I see ya," she stood there "scratching her head" in disbelief, then made a note to herself "Google Postitch" and stuck it on the fridge.

The unusual fashion was noticed by the company's executives and she soon found that she was getting requests to make clothing for the CEOs who needed a lot of meeting reminders. Inspired, she began to create suits, hats and ties made entirely of sticky notes and eventually developed a line of expensive postitwear clothing designed to remind the wearer of appointments, birthdays, and deadlines. After making her fortune selling her sticky clothing creations, she moved into a new line of fashion - velcro playwear for toddlers.
