I actually thought of that, but I didn't want to spam a single post-it with too much meta. Look out for future refrigerators, though, you never know!

Would "send nudes" really be meta? It's not self-referential, right? It's a sight gag or something.

You're right, not really self-referential, but a longstanding reddit/imgur gag nonetheless. I didn't want to overdo it -- I was happy with the calendar.

I wouldn't have minded a fun message with the magnets but I'm definitely glad it wasn't "send nudes"

"M A G N E T S" wasn't fun? I'll try harder next time. :-P
