Price Discrepancies
Posted in News, rant, sweet with tags bewilder, rant, sad, stupid, thoughts on 2010/02/12 by AlexI love the Internet. I’ve been using it since before Google and it just keeps getting better! I use it for everything I do, and even seek to use it more. One of the best parts about the Internet is shopping. It’s like regular shopping in a mall, but with all the vendors sitting in front of you at a table offering their wares and you don’t have to bargain hunt or shop around because the best price is right there in front of you! And of course, international shopping.
I recently bought a pen from France. Why France? Because Waterman doesn’t offer that product line in North America, let alone Canada. And just now I bought a music CD (Moving On by Myleene Klass) from Amazon UK. Before I dive into this diatribe I’d like to note Amazon’s cultural acknowledgment; The Canadian site will “Ship to this address”, the UK site will “Dispatch to this address” (how cute!), and the American one will “Drops mah shit off hear plz”. Now on to the rant.

Chocolate With a Rumor
Posted in chocolate, food, sweet with tags chocolate, finally, right on 2008/09/17 by Alex
I like chocolate, but I always find myself wondering why it feels unfinished at the end.
You know that feeling of warmth when your lover wraps their arms around you from behind and breathes softly over your ear while spooning right after sex? That’s what chili does to chocolate in your mouth. It’s the finishing touch. Without it, you just feel a bit screwed but you’re not really 100% satisfied. Read more »
X-Rays on my Brains!
Posted in News, Security, sweet with tags awesome, skull, x-ray on 2008/08/11 by Alex
I was alone in an x-ray department recently, so I pushed every 3rd button. I have this funny taste in my mouth all the time now, and my teeth hurt, but this is a pretty sweet image! I smell almonds…
Pizza Gift
Posted in food, sweet with tags charming, food, pizza, romantic, spontaneous, sweet on 2008/02/11 by AlexImagine hearing a knock on the door, opening it up and seeing the pizza guy. With a pizza. Pretty spectacular, right? Well it is, because you didn’t order pizza, but you were craving some and as if by magic you actually got what you wished for.
