eating olives and watching return of the jedi hmu

@catalina the only return of the jedi is the original return of the jedi

@patience oh thank god

do they have trader joe's in canada? they have a nice cheap medley

@catalina no, TJ's has never been in canada

and i've never seen cheap kalamata olives here. but i do know where the olive bars are (mostly at loblaws supermarkets)

@catalina mercifully, no

we have whole psycheque here, and it's only for the 1%'ers (located in the Mink Mile)

no, loblaws is a major canadian grocery company with lots of regional/provincial supermarket brands (here in its home base, it's Loblaws and No Frills, but others areas include Zehr's Provigo, and so on), but they make a lot of their own food products under the brand name 'president's choice', which is usually less spendy than on-brand stuff and is also superior in quality and flavour and variety nearly always

exciting huh

@patience whenever i drive up to the bay and back i stop at a different TJs it's kind of sad

@patience maybe i should visit other grocery stores

@catalina there are other grocery stores there, aren't there

@patience exactly

i worry about becoming terminally basic

and it doesn't help that some starbucks sell nitrogen coffee now meaning i go there regularly for the first time in my life

@catalina ::raised brow:: "nitrogen coffee"

is 'terminally basic' a synonym for something along the lines of 'spoilt rotten' or nah

@patience nitrogen coffee rules omg

basic is different than spoiled, but i can't think of a good definition off the top of my head

@catalina hmmm

well, my coffee i think is nitrogen-free, which i imagine is pretty hard to do since the atmosphere is about 78 per cent nitrogen. i buy a canadian brand inspired by a vancouver theme which isn't exciting, but it isn't terrible, either

granted, i love clover presses, but those aren't exactly everywhere. as for nitrogen coffee… i'm an uncultured rube

@patience when you poor it there's a head like beer has and it's so foamy and smooth

@catalina hmm. sounds novel. sort of like having a coffee porter beer, except no beer

@catalina and now i'm having a cheap, nitrogen-free coffee ☕

@catalina hey you know it's the weekend and you can sleep in, right

@patience yeah, but now i'm hungry too so i should probably just get out of bed

patience ❎ @patience

@catalina come on over. i'll make eggy-in-the-basket

@catalina (based solely on the two times i saw it on V for Vendetta)

@patience i've always called them cowboy eggs, which doesn't make nearly as much sense

@patience either way that sounds better than the grape nuts and raisins i'm eating now

@catalina hey, i loved grape nuts for my entire life before they changed the recipe sometime last decade. they got less hearty and when warmed into a hot cereal concoction, became less "buttery" in their flavour

you're eating healthily at least. i've been eating like garbage for most of this three-year depression :P

@catalina and because you are what you eat, that means, yes, garbage it me

@catalina oh yeah? well, i'm still stuck at 2.0 (and there are two garbage songs i have been known to sing, one of them never available in karaoke catalogues despite it being one of their singles)

you've seen pics of me deteriorating over the years… surely there's no way you think my approaching the garbage event horizon has made me closer to beautiful, do you

@patience omg garbage event horizon

and with more coffee i could probably say something coherent about it being silly to conceptualize beauty as a universal attribute that we get closer and further from over the course of our lives

but you already know that so shush

@catalina you're smrt — no, wise — years ahead of me <3

@patience ok hold on i need my emoji dictionary
