In your 40s you become a hobbit. And truly enjoy it.
Snarking not infrequently about the silliness of non-Hobbits who don't understand safe, simple pleasures.
Nah fam that green tea is legit
Which green tea? I am a tea enjoyer
I think he’s talking about the bottled ito en oi ocha green tea in the plastic bottles
Too bad it's Costco and that green tea is a one-off they'll never stock again.
That's why you buy a shitload of it all at once.
I miss Costco. We moved to a rural part of the US a few years ago and the nearest Costco is now 2.5 hours away. Really hard to justify a 5 hour round trip to shop there. Luckily they do sell a lot of their stuff online but it's not the same without the browsing and the slice of pizza at the end.
See that story counts as a horror story for over 30s
Definitely one of those “hell yeah, socks!” things as you get older.
I got my brother and myself some Maggie Organic socks a few years ago, we still talk about them from time to time. Solid socks, really hold up well.
Im over hear just enjoying the trees flowering. Its the simple things that never get old. Good company, good food, and some peaceful scenery. All very obtainable.
Its my favorite thing about walking the dog in West coast Canada. Buds and blossoms, and tons of greenery. This week there was one cool morning and the dew on the grassy hill was just a fine mist instead of droplets. It looked like glitter as we walked to the top.
Bonus points, if your partner is into that: Drinking green tea regularly makes your dick taste reeeally tangy.
Or so I was told.
Thanks for the tip.

Spouse and I tested us through the kombucha assortment in our preferred super market and found a new drink we can obsess about.
Find new everyday things and go crazy about them, it's fun!
You gonna share your discoveries with the class?
I don't like the "pure" version. It tastes too much like grape juice which I hate with all I've got.
The second option with passion fruit also wasn't my cup of tea.
BUT the one with ginger and lemon tastes awesome!
Oh man, there is a ginger bug drink in my grocery store that I can't get enough of if it wasn't for the price.
I miss the homemade kombucha that I used to make in a bucket. The problem with all of these store-bought kombuchas is that they're always flavored with something. Why doesn't anybody sell plain kombucha?
I can buy unflavored tea, coffee, beer, yogurt... but not kombucha.
We OD'd on thrill
Definitely green tea, and ice cold flavored sparkling water. All the best parts of cola without the sweeteners.
Can I come?
Gotta run it past the CHO (Chief of Home Operations)
Huh. If that's CHO what is Cholo?
OMG I can’t wait.
It’s always a challenge with new finds at Costco because the samples are so intriguing but the size is such a big commitment.
And I also have a bit of self-loathing about how informed the above comment is.
Doesn't matter. All you have to do is use at least half and you break even.
