    Sometimes i think "Maybe i'd be better off in the US, they get a better Netflix, Hulu, groceries on Amazon..."

    And then i remember all the bad things the US has that I don't have to live with in Canada... And i feel a lot better.

    Probably wouldn't be alive if not for the socialist medicine i get.

    I dunno if you goons can access this link, but it's an article that I put off reading for my Theories of International Relations class until this morning, when I have class at 9am. Took me like five whole minutes of reading to figure out that he's referring to the subjectivity of social science explanations of phenomena in the Real World.

    Damn unconcise Max Weber.

    I don't drive, so it's either order it online or lug it back from the only supermarket nearby; a mile away.

    Yeah I order it off amazon.

    I may have come across as judgemental when it was meant to be surprise. Grocery shopping is one of the things I enjoy doing in person but I get that it isn't convenient or enjoyed by all

    Actually, it's probably due to the cost of transporting groceries from far-off distribution centers.

    They'd need to build a whole network of distribution centers for groceries alone and it's not really worth it yet, i guess.

    I am at a ex bowling club turned pub drinking a half of IPA with a cupcake as a side, the latter sold to me by a charity stall inside the pub, all the while reading a book about a famous fraudster called Trebitsch Lincoln

    Well at night it becomes a slightly posh and unbearable meat market. So your giggling is appropriate

    I hate to break it to you, but pizza and chinese food are both terrible in Norway compared to how they should be done.

    also, your steaks suck.

    Think I'm gonna have to stop ordering stuff from Amazon. The last 5 orders, all of 1 actually showed up.

    Just checked the tracking on the cat litter that was supposed to be here Wednesday.

    "Delivered - Front Porch Wednesday 23rd"

    Oh OK. Well. I don't have a porch. But if you mean any area at all within 100 meters of my house I'm going to disagree because it ain't fucking here.

    It's because they now use yodel, who are so hilariously incompetent I'm convinced they exist as part of some kind of insurance scam.

    Amazon is basically unusable for me as well.

    My parents used to own a store that sold decorative lighting (think Tiffany Lamps).

    When we felt like trolling customers, we would bring out this box and pretend to trip and fall on it. The box was full of broken light bulbs and hardware, so when we crushed it, it sounded like we broke everything.

    Sometimes I miss that place.

    This has nothing to do with why they went out of business.

    Are you sick and tired of trying to teach your pickles to yodel? Pickles can be so stubborn. At last, the yodeling pickle you've been waiting for. With a mere press of a button (yes, it has a button) this little pickle will yodel its heart out. You'll think you're in the Swiss Alps listening to a yodeling pickle.

    It's amazing how annoyed and self-pitying I feel just because I have to go to the office to let a carpet install company into the building and have to be around while they're doing it.

    It's not like I'm installing carpet. I'm just going in and being there.

    And yet it's Saturday I shouldn't have to weh weh abloo abloo

    Are you really naked under those gloves? For Pete's sake, put on some Handerpants. These 95% cotton, 5% spandex, fingerless gloves have the look and feel of men's briefs. Slip them on underneath your gloves for extra warmth and protection from chafing. Wear them on their own as a vaguely inappropriate fashion statement. Hundreds of uses. Fits most adult hands.

    "As a genetic bio-engineer, I am working on architecting the growth of organs and appendages via biological induction grafting. For you dummies, that means I do things like grow human ears on mice. It's super cool.

    One day I fell asleep at work, in the lab, and a couple of the office knuckleheads decided to prank yours truly. Here's what went down. See, we had this dick in the freezer - some Japanese guy kicked off and donated it to us. It's in his will and everything. Pretty wild, right?

    So, other than occasionally pulling it out of the fridge and sticking it in Benny's ear for a goof, it doesn't get much action.

    Currently we're working on growing a thumb - it's pretty great because all the mice look like they're doing the Fonz's "Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy" as they have a big thumb sticking up on their backs.

    Because we're so tied up with the thumb, we have no time to mess around with the freezer dick. Eventually we'll learn how to grow dicks, although more people need new thumbs than dicks, you know?

    But, back to my story.

    I passed out around noon after a particularly heavy Arby's beef and cheddar lunch. It was one of those five-for-five deals, and I put down the sandwiches in about seven minutes.

    When I woke up, Carl was pointing at my hand and laughing. Those bozos has grafted the Japanese dick to my right palm!

    Well, two weeks later and the dick's still attached. Apparently my body has "accepted" the dick, and if I have it removed, it'll die or something.

    I know - totally bummed.

    I reported Carl to HR - although, I did have to admit it was a pretty solid gag. But, walking around with a dick on my hand is a little inconvenient. Plus, it's embarrassing.

    Most people don't like seeing dicks in public - there's actually a lot of trouble you can get in showing you dick around town. It's a big deal to the law.

    I found the Handerpants on Amazon. It sucks to type with a dick on your hand, as I'm always hitting the "/" key accidentally.

    I can now go out into public with ALL of me. My real dick and my palm-dick are both out of sight. And the gloves are fingerless, so I have a little hipster fashion thing going on.

    Thank you Handerpants!

    Attention public - if you see me walking around, do NOT give me a high five. That really hurts!"
