Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of either store. I mostly do my clothes shopping at Men's Express or Men's Warehouse.

I'm not up for a rolex but I get fossil watches.

Boring story: I was in Newport when they filmed the movie. They only had to facade some of the buildings, filled the street with dirt. I recognize a number of the extras, could have been one but didn't want to - now wish I had kind of.

Spielberg came into the gaming store where I hung out sometimes (because I'm a nerd) bought a Warhammer dragon because it looked cool and paid the store owner $$$ to assemble and paint it for him.

Anyway, it's just a surprising choice of name I guess.

There are YouTube reviews of art supplies (markers, pens, etc.) from aliexpress and wish. I saw this one a few weeks ago:

Perhaps you'll find other recommendations based on this one!

AliExpress is my go-to for art and craft supplies when I'm not in a hurry to get them and I don't think I've ever gotten anything that wasn't as described. Semi-recent purchases include a set of micron pens, a hand drill, mini vice and a set of jeweller's files, tons of washi tape (great for decorating envelopes and birthday / Christmas cards), silver and gold leaf, cabochons, pigment powder. It's perfect for buying things you want to experiment with without wasting a bunch of money.

I have ordered a silly amount of small packages from China now and Customs apparently took an interest in this one:



If they're mad that the seller described my fishing lure at "beads," they didn't mention it to me. Also they didn't tape the package closed. That branded tape appears to be decorative.

This one made me giggle:



There were about eight items in that envelope, none of them being cream or even creamy. Why cream?

Packages are often just left by the postman hanging out on the floor of the mailbox area of my apartment lobby.

I know they have to put something on the customs label, but don't they know any euphemisms? It's got my full name and unit number on it, do they really have to specify "panties"?

I know people say not to get stuff that goes on your skin from aliexpress. I assumed the problem was just excess lead or cadmium. But apparently they have poo poo that can turn you into an alien hybrid.

If it's actual sex stuff (or presumably BDSM stuff), it'll say somewhere in the description that they'll list it as something else to be discreet. Panties I guess are not over that line of risquéness?
