WoW, literally. I just went to the mall to get some chinese food, and I thought, aww why not peseter everyone and see if they have a copy of WoW they will sell me. Walmart didn't have them out yet =/ they even denied having them in storage in the back... So then I went to zellers, nada, on to future shop.... (like best buy for Canada), nada again... Superstore... still nada.

Then I walk into London Drugs, I see the delivery guy walking out, I watch the chick open the box and OMFG its WoW!!!! So calm and collected I asked if that was world of warcraft, she laughed and said yes...

After a 2 min conversation I convinced her it released today (which technically it does because midnight EST is 9pm PST :P), and she sold me a copy. Sadly they didn't have any collector's editions in yet, but in the end it is a sacrifice I was willing to make...


Moral of the story: If you want to get a copy today, go to a crappy electronics store that doesn't have employees who game at all. Convince them to sell it to you, they will... ^_^

As an aside chinese food is too tasty to be consumed by mere mortals.

Are you insinuating that the Chinese are Immortal?

Anyone who eats this stuff on a regular basis has to come to a greater understanding of life and the universe and such. I mean it is SOOO good. It forces you to stop and ponder, it no longer boggles me how they invented so many things early (gunpowder for fireworks)...

Anyone who eats this stuff regularly has some form of demi-deity mental powers I am sure of it.

That or they die of stomach cancer from the high salt content.

But I can't help, Chinese food is just so delicious and I'll eat it anychance I get. Now if it only kept you filled up longer than an hour :-/

If I could live off of chinese food and Sushi, I am sure I would. I doubt I would be able to walk after a few months, but who needs mobility when I would have found true inner peace? Other than asain foods and steak & ribs... there we go again, now I am full as hell and dreaming of steak and ribs...


Gluttony, one of the best sins.

The worst part of it all, or best depending on how you look at it, is that I like 1.5 blocks from both awesome chinese food AND awesome sushi.

Seriously sometimes I wonder how I am not poor considering how much I eat at those places... or rather how I am not overweight.... My body is going to get revenge on me one day, I am sure of this. Strangely that thought is unable to slow me down though.... =/

Never had Hawaiian food.

Rjah, getting overwieght from those is unlikey. The Japanese and Chinese as a race are usually pretty healthy and Sushi is absolutely not a fatty food. Infact it's very healthy because of the Seaweed and the Omega-3 Fatty Acids.

Might I ask what kind of cullinary delights the Hawaiin cuisine might offer? My interested is piqued (btw I have no idea how many spelling mistakes I made in that sentence...)

mmm seriously I am entering a zen state, induced by spring rolls.

It's bad subject to be talking about while you're at work.

It makes my apple look so un-appetizing.
