A quirky, nostalgic send-up to the Oregon Trail computer game, featuring snarky and hard-earned life lessons from the trail.

Pack your wagons, find your ride-or-(literally) die friends, and roll up to Matt's General Store with a sack of cash--it's time to hit the Oregon Trail, twenty-first-century style ...And Then You Die of Dysentery is the perfect send-up to the sometimes frustrating, always entertaining, and universally beloved Oregon Trail computer game. Featuring a four-color design in the game's iconic 8-bit format, alongside pop culture references galore, the book offers 50 humorous, snarky lessons gleaned from the game's most iconic moments, including gems such as:
--Suffering from exhaustion is a real thing. (It's not just PR code for why a celebrity went to rehab.)
--If you hunt too frequently in one area, game will become scarce. (The first signs of gentrification )
--Invite your sweetie to cuddle with you while looking up at the stars. (The night sky was the original Netflix & Chill. Step 1: Loosen up Orion's belt...)

With its laugh-out-loud commentary and its absurdist nostalgia, ...And Then You Die of Dysentery is the ultimate trip down memory lane ... all the way to the Willamette Valley.

Love this blanket!!!
Color: Cream, Size: Throw (50" X 60")
I absolutely LOVE this blanket!! It is an exact dupe for the “Lola” blanket. One of my friends has one and it feels the same and at just a fraction of the cost! It’s so soft and stretchy. It has such a nice weight to it and is the perfect size. I have already ordered 3 more for gifts this Christmas. I’m surprised this isn’t sold out!

Incredible Dupe
Color: Pink, Size: Throw (50" X 60")
I never leave reviews, but I was looking for a dupe blanket for my kiddos after getting a much more expensive brand blanket for myself, and this one is excellent. It’s double-sided so the same mega-soft on each side and cozy but not too heavy. I’m now getting them as Christmas gifts for everybody. A+ purchase

Oh my!!!
Color: Pink, Size: Throw (50" X 60")
This is the softest blanket ever! I sleep with it next to my skin and my bigger blanket on top because I so love how soft it is. If they ever make this in a larger size I will definitely get it!!!! LOVE THIS!!!!

Warm, cozy and thick high-quality throw.
Color: Cream, Size: Throw (50" X 60")
This is thick, non-shedding blanket - and for cold, winter nights… THE BEST. My granddaughters found it to be too warm, but not this grandma! I’m fit, but dang, these super-cold Alaska nights allow me to stay warm and cozy! If you have someone who runs a bit on the colder side, they will love this blanket! It washes beautifully. Great value!

C.J. Artificial plant arrived broken in 2 places. Stems and leaves are so stiff they stick straight up and cannot be arranged otherwise. Do not buy. Terrible product..

Beautiful, not too bulky
Color: White, Size: Travel/Throw Size - 50" x 60"
Incredibly soft. If it's a really cold night and I'm watching TV in bed I wrap my head in it.
