    Happy second anniversary to Bleeb! I’m surprised he hasn’t gone mad after 2 years of observing wacky humans.

    Sounds like many of the stores in Ukraine, very specialized. I just noticed that in Odessa there is a big celebration for a recently opened Mega Store that has everything you could desire under one roof and in one store.

    How long before the “R us” moniker becomes unintelligible to generation aleph null?

    Given the ridiculous flamboyance of the other shop names, Socks ‘R’ Us seems a bit bland.

    This store should sell singles to replace the ones eaten by your dryer. Those socks aren’t really eaten, they are turned to lint and you throw them out when you clean your lint trap.

    Ah, but at least Socks R Us actually has socks to sell, as opposed to a certain Cheese shop…
