I, too, envy Jason's jasmine-scented "Thai-living" dream come true. Though I, too, am away from misguided Mistress America at the moment, we both know that Western Europe and it's "not-quite-American!" trappings and "hey, wait, didn't we at one point have our own culture" frustration are far, far away from the steamy societies of the Far East (Japan excluded?) where it's like, Why is our culture so relatively pristine? Uh, well, we're our own thing, for sure, because, um... the prices you put on your culture are way too high for us. The Chinese, on the other hand, don't seem to care how much we do it for just as long as we do it. (thinks a second) It's not as if we can't make plastic, hollow, meaningless crap, though. Let me see your watch. Oh, just as I thought. Made in Thailand. We not only make it for less, we make it better! What was the point?
There's a Bubble Tea in Las Cruces? According to you, that was most definitely not the coolest place in Seattle. Remember how we almost ate at Koreana but then you threw up?
