My girlfriend sent me this photo followed by the caption-

"Even raccoons get a ring"

Credit to /u/CrapPaintJob for creating OP's submission. Odd how the image was been modified to circumvent reverse image searching.

Edit: I'm taking OP for his word.

Edit 2: Well, now that OP deleted "his word" I'm somewhat consternated. But given his posting history it seems that any lack of attribution was unintentional.

The one on his pinky finger? I'm aware that it was a bad attempt at trying to give the object an appearance of weight in his hand. If you are talking about the appearance of the shadow behind the box continuing on to the wall, I can assure you it's not going on to the wall. The gray in the shadow just matched the gray of the wall and lined up to make it appear like I let the shadow continue into a stupid spot, but I was at work and just wanted to add the submission so I didn't alter it.
