Squatty Potty Commercial Is All Wins
Admitedly late to the game but the commercial for the Squatty Potty is all wins. An unicorn pooping rainbow ice cream!?!?
And like I mentioned, this invention is legit.

The Lights in the Wilson Tunnel Are Agitating
I guess there are new lights in the Wilson Tunnel while driving the Likelike. These LED lights are bright compared to the old lights, but the spacing or position of the lights creates a nasty flickering as you drive by.
Very, very agitating.
Update 3/6/17. Now with agitating video.
Torture Is…
…standing in back of a group of young teens at Starbucks. Yes, they all ordered individually but thankfully did not place orders for friends who weren’t physically there. Yes, they ordered time-consuming drinks like Frappuccinos and various pink drinks.
Luckily, my iced non-fat, no whip Smoked Butterscotch Latte was prepared somewhere in between the kids’ orders, so I didn’t have to wait too long. But that no whip part was lost in the translation since there was a mound of it with my name on it. No, I wasn’t about to wait any longer to fix this fatty oversight.
No, I have no pictures of this tortue. Yes, the SBL with whip was good.
Item Pickup Today Does Not Mean in Stock at Walmart
Obviously, I assumed too much when seeing this meter stick on Walmart.com. Sure, it’s available for pickup at the Pearl City location today if I order/buy it online. So I guessed that for the item to be available today, it should be in stock at the store. Otherwise, how can it guarantee the item be ready for pickup?
Well, of course, the item is NOT in stock at the Pearl City location. I asked the clerk who checked inventory and said they are indeed out of stock. Thanks Walmart. But I did find a tape measure with metric markings at a close enough price.
Valentine’s Day Pulpy Style
Here are some Valentine’s Day ideas styled the pulpy way.
Hostess Cupcakes featuring the lovely combination of raspberry and dark chocolate. These limited edition cakes are yummy.
You know and I know that these Nike women’s Free TR5 Flyknit do not belong in TJ Maxx or Nordstrom Rack. Even more so, this “Multicolor” colorway definitely doesn’t belong in Ross where I rescued them but not at $130.
Hope you have a great Valentine’s Day!
Endoscopy Drop Off and Pickup
Just what do you drop off or pickup from a private endoscopy clinic? That box is huge!
Kinda Creepy
Am I the only one kinda creeped out by this doll sitting alone on this chair at Macy’s Ala Moana?
The Beauty of Bankruptcy
Sadly, the Ewa Wing of Ala Moana has been brutal to food-based businesses. The first (and quick) casualty was Gloria Jeans Coffees. Then around the end of 2016, Magnolia Bakery closed, both the cupcake-serving kiosk and the sit-down eatery. Its mainland success just couldn’t be replicated here in Hawaii it seems.
Most recently, popular Nitrogenie also shut its doors. Tied to Magnolia, the ice cream from magic couldn’t make up for the cupcake losses.
I must say though that Ala Moana does its best to mask the ugly side of bankruptcies. Notice any empty storefronts all have facades of beauty and style.
No Nespresso Recycling Service for Hawaii
Aw boo. Nespresso is advertising their recycling program for used Nespresso capsules. But this program is not available in Hawaii (or Alaska and U.S. territories).
Hmmm, the Williams-Sonoma in Ala Moana is listed as a recycling point where empty recycling bags can be picked up and full bags dropped off. I may have to look into this. At the very least, I have to remember to put the used capsules in the household blue recycling bin.
This Shirt Costs How Much?!?
Look at this shirt then look at the Nordstrom price tag and say it with me, “This shirt costs how much?!?”
Just shows my lack of fashion knowledge of the Comme des Garçons PLAY line. That makes the $125 price tag alright, right???
Thanks for Bringing Back the Aztek, Honda
I would like to thank Honda for reviving the much maligned Pontiac Aztek.
Okay, okay, Honda doesn’t own Pontiac or the discontinued Aztek, but when I saw this vehicle on the road, I immediately had flashbacks of Dark Angel’s Logan Cale aka Eyes Only blazing around in the futuristic Aztek.
But instead, this is the 2017 Honda Civic Hatchback with its “aggressively sloped back end.” Fortunately, the rest of the car looks better than its backside (and the Pontiac Aztek).
