Methinks you expect too much

From Consumer Reports on US Supermarkets:

The frustration is easy to understand. The average household spends nearly $5,000 a year on groceries, yet it’s hard to find top service, rock-bottom prices, and great goods in a single store.

Is it just me or should they not be pointing out that expecting a supermarket to be the cheapest of the cheap and also provide frills and quality merchandise for next to nothing is asking a bit much?

A Really Odd Reaction to the Who Casting Spoilers for Season Three

( Cut because casting spoilers are still spoilers to the pure of heart )

Long Vacation love

I had to work hard today (bitterly ironic on a holiday for labor) and I've been rewarding myself by watching Long Vacation. And so much happiness with this show.

I like the that the two main characters are these people who've been disappointed in their lives: Minami is a washed up model who can't get another job and Sena is a an aspiring pianist who has to teach little kids (who mock him) to pay the bills. Minami and Sena look out for each other in odd ways: Minami trying to protect Sena when his girlfriend is not quite behaving like she should was just so kind.

( cut for spoilers in case anyone on my flist who cares hasn't actually seen this )

Also: Who fandom, what happened? dw_anon has just exploded with the wank. And really exploded in all sorts of new and bonkers ways...
