<p>Programmers are typically known for leaving interesting tricks, images or quotes in their work, known as Easter eggs, much like the <a href="http://nerdcereal.com/ascii-art-in-muxtape-vimeo-source-code/">ASCII art in the Vimeo source code</a>.</p>
<p>I was buying labels at Staples today and came across the above Easter egg on the cover of a package of labels. The sample address reads:</p>
<blockquote><p>Tyler Durden<br />
420 Paper St.<br />
Wilmington, DE 19886</p></blockquote>
<p><a href="http://www.imdb.com/character/ch0001854/">Tyler Durden</a> is the name of the main character in the movie, Fight Club (and subsequently the nickname of a pick up artist in <em>The Game</em>). And 420, is, well, pot. I don&#8217;t know if Wilmington, DE has any significance.</p>
