I've done that myself.

...like the time in Florida many years ago when someone filed Legend of the freaking Overfiend with the 'Animation' stuff. Right next to a bunch of other kid's movies.

I had a moment similar to that except with glow-in-the-dark spray paint adjacent to (and mixed in with) holiday colored hairspray (some of which was also glow-in-the-dark).

(I know this is old; I'm here via that fascinating thread in lj_releases; I hope your week improves after that.)
