  • One thing I try to do is to avoid procrastinating. If there is a task to do and I think to myself “I’ll do it later” I then ask myself “will it take more than five minutes”? If the answer is no, then I make myself do it.

    I also use an app on my phone to keep a list of chores on a schedule. Having things lingering on the list is annoying, too. But the app allows me to skip or reschedule them. If you are on iOS and need some app like this I recommend PikaPika.

    Are the contents less by weight? I don’t doubt your frustration. But when I was a kid, the happy meals came in a cardboard box, but now they come in a paper bag (at least in Japan). Obviously to save money. Maybe they just cut the cardboard box to save money? FWIW I actually ate a large fries yesterday and they came in the traditional packaging, so this was surprising for me.





  • iPhone Pocket in the short strap design retails at $149.95 (U.S.), and the long strap design at $229.95 (U.S.).

    Wow, what an absolute ripoff for what is essentially a knitted sock with straps.

    They colors may look stylish but it looks like an absolute nightmare to check the screen.

    Even though it is stated that you can stretch the fabric to peek at the screen, not one of the photos illustrates this “feature”. Strange.

    Can’t wait for this to be knocked off and sold on AliExpress for $10 with free shipping.

    I really do like Apple products, but this accessory is a bit too much of a stretch (pun intended) for me.
