Why can't I buy a souvenir of Newark at the Newark airport?
I spend time there on every trip, so I want a souvenir, but all the trinkets are souvenirs of New York City.


My goal is to make a wind chime using souvenir teaspoons.

1. want a souveneir from somewhere else in NJ
Newark as a pretty bad reputation and that's probably why they don't have any souveneirs.

I live in a touristy part of NJ and if you want anything, let me know.

2. Why would somebody want a souvenir of Newark?
If you look around a bit, you could probably find a crack vial.

4. No matter where I go, I end up spending about 3 to 12 hours in the Newark airport
It's only fitting I have a souvenir.

3. Because all mafia bones are immediately handed to the FBI.
We're not allowed to sell them.

9. That picture never gets old
Someday an archaeologist is going to dig that up and think they've found the cult-shrine of douchebaggery.
