haha, for the longest time I kept buying a certain brand of honey that I just thought was so cheap it was a steal…then one day I noticed the fine print on the bottle–“Imitation”… that was a damn good imitation though, as I would’ve kept using it. I laughed at myself for not noticing that for several months of buying it.
speaking of cheap store-brand shit… I’ve recently discovered that Publix’s “Original Oat Crunch” is actually one of the greatest cereals ever produced. I’m going back to get at least 3 boxes of the stuff on my next trip there. It is unbelievable.
This is such a great moment-- other people are probably having to work right now. I’m at home, sitting on the couch doing absolutely nothing but surfin’ the net and playing some occasional Borderlands…thinking about getting into some Diablo 3 action a bit later… and oh yes, I still get paid for this time. That very concept of paid time off/holiday is a beautiful thing. I may be watching General Hospital later…then perhaps take a nap… it’s like a flashback to childhood summer vacation fun here. Sheeeit I should’ve taken the Monday off to make it a 4-day weekend.
always…ALWAYS wanna look for the word “Imitation” when buying food. I got pwnt once when I bought Imitation shredded cheese. wasn’t even about the price, I just didn’t notice it. tried to bake some of that with my pasta but it looked/tasted like melted plastic
The local newsletter I subscribe to has a section of Missed Connections from CL. They kill me. Some of headlines are too fuckin funny. Best one from today:
Nintendo is known for having incredibly dumb fans, especially if they are collectors because they know they can make serious dough making this exclusive collectors stuff and keeping stock on desired items low.
It’s pretty much them eating popcorn and watching the chaos happen with their own eyes.
