The most confusing thing about Veggie Tales, from the perspective of an outsider, is that it apparently exists at all. That said, someone in the notes suggested that Jesus is a tater tot.
Oh, that’s a nice idea. I’m an outsider as well in that I never watched it as a kid, but SOMEONE kept asking for Veggie Tales/Avengers crossovers so at some point I had to do some research.
It’s really unsettling as an adult, but I can see why the kids like it.

Oh, I BADLY want the ski chalet but the shipping is CAD$37 (that’s 1.5x on top of the price of the actual chalet...)
What a shame! I can see why it would be expensive to ship, though, the box is a super-awkward size.

@copperbadge Sam are you saying you liked Wicker Park before it sold out?
HAHAHAHAHAHA well, I never liked Wicker per se -- it’s cool and there’s fun stuff to do but I am painfully out of place there. The first time I visited, I just wanted to see the Chrome bag store, and it was like...ten thousand people in skinny jeans and ill-fitting shirts, bad haircuts, and trucker caps, and there was me in a nice leather jacket, conservative boots, and khakis. I was like a dad in a Hot Topic. Very awkward.

Men typically do not. Men who live without a car seem more likely to trip chain, and more likely to do chains that don’t involve coffee. But yeah it’s definitely seen as feminine. And my local transit is hell for circular routes but I at least have a train and a reasonable schedule of every 10m trains.
I mean, I suppose my chain usually involves a meal, but that’s just because I know when I’ll get tired/hungry. That’s wild, I wonder how their errands get done, like...I guess you just go out to do one thing and randomly think of others?

The roastery is so freaking pretty, I know a bunch of the Chicago partners that work there and it’s been an interesting transition from what I hear. They do get paid more, but it’s a no-tip store, so I’m not sure if that balances out.
Huh! I wonder if people somehow try to tip them anyway? I guess with no tip jar and no line on the receipt they probably only get tipped when people say “keep the change” and that likely goes to some kind of special Bux fund rather than the person. How interesting.
