By large I mean by area, not [necessarily] density or weight. Preferably something that isn’t collapsable or capable of being easily disassembled. I want the delivery of the item to be a major pain in the ass.
By area activated charcoal has a ton of surface area
If by area you mean then buy a bottle of paint or even better, exfoliated graphene! Or graphite, that also has football fields of surface area in it. If you mean volume, then a very large hot air balloon may be an inexpensive space filling purchase.
Eat fiber supplements for a day. The delivery won’t disappoint.
How much do you want to spend? Used shipping container?
Whatever you end up doing, OP, you owe us a pic or video of the result!
Bouncy castle
We got this, and I did actually use it all but my goodness. They drop it in the driveway, it can’t stay there. I moved it in the wheelbarrow for a day, then my husband and stepson worked it for a day, then we asked our lawn guy if he knew anyone who wanted $300 to move the rest (as honestly after moving half of it, it looked the same size!) and he sent us a strapping country boy, like a caricature of a farmboy, who moved the rest of it to the back, then I distributed it where it needed to go.
I’m not a homeowner, don’t plan on being one any time soon, and have zero use for their services, but damn am I sold by their “Why CHIPDROP is probably NOT for you” promo video. That’s advertising gold, right there.
I signed up for it and didn’t tell my husband. Wish me luck. Haha
Sweet jesus save me from this driveway FULL OF LOGS
It’s neat that that service exists, but you can also call up local arborist companies and ask, or wait until one is chipping a bunch of debris at a neighbor’s house and ask the truck driver in person.
You can order packing peanuts for ~$5/ft^3 and some places will do free shipping over a certain value. There are also decorative balloon bunches, though I don’t know about price there.
Liquids would also work. Heavy, sloshy, awkward, etc. and you don’t want to drop them because it’d make a mess.
What do they pack them in?
They pad the packing peanuts crate out with brand new furniture.
In themselves, of course!

You shouldn’t think big, necessarily, you should think heavy. Postage to be paid on delivery.
Lead sheet in a return envelope is a great thank you for unsolicited application offers.
In that article 1 of 11 images is still available. Everything else is gone. lol
Tbh I looked just hard enough to find one not about faeces, didn’t look too hard at it.
The National Parks.
I guarantee you, for the amount you pay in your taxes for the upkeep of YOUR National Parks, you get orders of magnitude more beautiful land to enjoy than the acreage you could possibly purchase directly.
Before Trump fucked it all up that is, of course…
The national parks are the best value, but dollars to area public lands are less managed and bigger
I missed Trump fucking things up and I need to know now…
If I understand correctly, this one is still in progress, i.e. her hasn’t quite accomplished it yet. They tried to add the selloff of public land to the big piece of shit bill, but I think that failed?
Ty!
Those plastic balls for a ball pit. You order them in bags of 1000 pcs for 15 bucks on Aliexpress, they are bloody huge. A couple of those will do.
Especially if your goal is to mess with the delivery driver, you can max out available storage in the truck in no time.
I think upped popcorn still might be cheaper if you have an air popper. Way purest waste plastic and you can make a huge volume of the stuff in just a few minutes.
I know a guy who filled his friend’s Saab with popcorn during a prank war back in the 90s. It kinda ended the whole thing I think, and there was always more popcorn in that poor car.
I do shit like that from time to time, when I remember beeing an adult is not just crappy and tedious but means I can decide shit. Last week I got a cheesecake. A whole cheesecake. And ate it for dinner. The whole cake. Because who’s gonna tell me I can’t do that? Certainly not the bakery. Or my kids. Maybe my doctor had an opinion on that, but come one it’s once a month or so that I do something like that.
Every time. It’s truly stunning that there’s an xkcd for everything.
It’s selection bias. Instances where there isn’t a relevant xkcd aren’t recorded.
Considering the joke is how many years old now? I assumed the punchline was implied. You are not wrong. 🤓
Your xkcd number is 2618
Cause every conversation where there is not a relevant xkcd disappears from reality
I have this printed and framed next to my desk. It’s a good reminder of the power we all have to live our lives how we choose and the kind of people we want to be.
If only. Shipping on ball pit balls is stupid expensive. I looked at filling a 6x12 office like 3 feet deep and it was going to be almost $3000 once shipping was included. Yes, I am still bitter about it. I just didn’t want to deal with an office chair anymore.
A chair is less to deal with than a room full of balls
Sure, but imagine you join a meeting and the lead engineer is sitting in a ball pit. Isn’t your first response going to be to laugh? Then he shifts to grab something and slowly sinks out of frame. It’s 100% going to make whatever stupid meeting better.
You would still need to sit on something though right? Otherwise you just sink to the bottom.
Jim is that you?
At least I’m not the only one who had this idea
Finally, a way to get back at Steve, my mailman, who I don’t like very much. Fuck you, Steve! /s
Can’t you buy stars on websites online
that only really buys you a piece of paper that says: “you own this star”.
otherwise i guess i could sell you the universe for 1 penny, which would make for a fun answer to OPs question.This comment is so good I’m going to sell an NFT of it.
Deal! sucker
Plastic lawn chair. They are one of the biggest dimensional losers. Cheap, but if you’re ordering just one the packing is super inefficient.
I suppose it’s not that much of a pain in the ass in retrospect but it’s definitely a mental pain considering the incredible poor efficiency of getting one delivered. Perhaps you can find an extremely large piece of Styrofoam because they cannot be folded.
make sure to get multiple chairs, but none of the same type. not being able to stack them is super annoying : D
I think this is the best answer overall
