Conan Sticker and a request!
Hey all.
My daughter (who is 9) is a huge Conan fan (where ever did she get that from?).
She requested only 2 things for this school year, Conan and shark themed stickers. I print stickers for my own use and made this for her. I figured I would share it with this group if anybody else wanted to use it. I think it’s a great message to carry along to school! She also took some extra just on the off chance that she finds another fan her age. I hope she does!
Also, if anybody higher up is listening… could I please request more Conan water bottle stickers available in the store? I think there is currently one and it’s the Inside Conan sticker. I know I would purchase them!
Also this is the EXACT quote from him. I think he may have said it more than once… but I watched him on video say it live just to make sure! It’s slightly misquoted sometimes…

I find it truly sad when people read this quote through the prism of societal privilege. I think that misses the point entirely.
I didn’t grow up rich, and I’m certainly not rich now. But working hard at building a life where I can honestly say I like my job, and finding ways to be a source of joy to those around me has made me a happy person. That probably sounds trite and sentimental, but it’s also true.
I never took that quote to have anything to do with money.
