like several years ago had a friend that worked in WI (we live like 5 min south of the border) and every week she would bring home cases of some Smirnoff 12oz bottles whatever the gently caress they were, but they were truly vodka as the mixer. everywhere else they had the same packaging and labels but were "fortified malt beverages" so more like flavored beers or Zima

not sure if it was different laws for beer/wine vs spirits, or cost to produce, or jsut the Man keepin us down

Anytime I need to see your face I just close my eyes
And I am taken to a place
Where your crystal minds and magenta feelings
Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola

reminder that coin still requires you to have a smartphone running with bluetooth on to actually tell it how to handle your cards, even the new one that will supposedly work right all the time.

i just need to call this out

[qoute]
Almost a year ago I paid $55 to be an "early backer" of the credit card replacement system, with the promise that I'd be shipped a Coin summer of 2014. As the months went by emails would arrive detailing how Coin worked, how it was made, etc., all with the reminder that soon enough, I'd be receiving my Coin this summer.

Fast forward to this week — everyone who paid to be backer received an email stating that—HOORAY—our Coins would begin shipping after we follow some steps (such as downloading the app, registering on the site). So today I register on the Coin site, follow the instructions, and then I'm told to choose my Coin. What? (See attached image)

So yeah, I can either opt in for Coin Beta, their "kinda works, some of the time" beta product to ship now and then PAY an additional $30 for the actual final product (oh yeah, and it ships in Spring of 2015 now), or just keeeeeep waiting for another 8 months for the real thing.

The old bait and switch. Lovely.
