The Instagram site is better than the website; just lick on "thumbnails"

I feel so bad but I want to see one or two of them smashed open? And then I'm like, no, bad, don't destroy these beautiful works of art! But it's like, you've deprived it of its purpose by not smashing it open and so I am torn.

You'd have to blindfold me, I wouldn't be able to break those if I knew how beautiful they were.

I was just reading the comments, and realized I'd instructed everyone to "lick" the thumbnails, which could be interesting, but maybe better to "click" on it for maximum enjoyment. Heh.
