capitalism *is* fun :-)

As usual, I went out to have dinner at my favourite restaurant. I was out of luck … my favourite table which has absolute privacy, was taken. So I took what I found. Great … I was in the middle of everybody. I started looking around out of boredom. It’s a rare ocassion to see grand-scale expression of stupidity.

Some guy next to me was flashing his Blackberry to make sure everyone notices him. At one point he was almost waving his hand in the air with him. Grow up. Learn to sit and eat in a restaurant. I assume he was celebrating the recent corporate job he just got, along with his Blackberry.

Some girl was taking photos of herself next to a BMW X5 which was on display. Come on! How low can some people get? I bet that by the time I am writing this post, she is the hottest girl on Hi5 with those photos. Or not.

In less then 6 months after I bought my car, it was already on YouTube … and it wasn’t me who made the video. Have some respect for privacy people. I am really not happy to see myself and my car on YouTube.

and we just got a huge Starbucks opening at the local Mall. It has 3 floors and an awesome view from the terrace on top of it. Expensive (compared to local purchasing power) as expected. Good thing is they take credit cards. The last Starbucks I visited in Bucharest, didn’t. Shame on them. The bad thing is you are not allowed to smoke inside, only on the outside terrace … and it’s a bit cold to stay there. I hate this ‘non-smokers’ crap all over Europe. What’s next? RFID chips in our ears … like cattle?

I just noticed that the spot reserved for people with a handicap, is much wider then the regular parking spots at the Mall. I am highly considering to park my car there, to avoid all those rednecks hitting my car with their doors and other useless crap the are carying around. Offcourse, this would make me look like a snob … oh well … I will think this over.
