Erster Gedanke: "Oh Scheisse, ich habe nen #Glaubenskrieg am Arsch."

Aber ich bin noch muede,

Also beantworten wir das mal ehrlich:
Ich mag Earl Grey. Den von #Twinings.

So jetzt ist es raus. Ich bin ein Barbar.

Btw. ich praeferiere #vim vor #emacs.

Customer service at #Twinings never responded to my two emails about this, and I checked a few days ago and it was still broken, but I checked again today and it was magically fixed so I was able to order more tea without paying for shipping.
(For some reason the "standard shipping" option had been removed from the shipping page, so the only available option was UPS Ground which was not free, but the free option magically returned.)

#TechIsShitDispatch
I regularly place large orders of a particular variety of tea from the #Twinings website, because it's pretty much the only variety I drink and it's often hard to find in grocery stores.
Shipping is supposed to be free for orders over $50.
When I went to order tea several days ago, it said it was going to charge me $12 in shipping on a $54 order, after the "cart" page claimed shipping would be free.
I emailed their customer support. So far no response.

Well, crap. My #Twinings addiction is about to get even more expensive.

Seriously, in a backhanded way I think this is a good thing. Someone must have explained to him, using small words, that #invading #Greenland would be a very bad idea. He's not capable of true understanding, of course, but he's easily bullied. Like #bullies usually are.
