This thread is simple and clean and comfortable to post in! Thanks!


My school tested Chinese and American chalk and crayons and the results were, don't eat chalk and crayons. I can't be more specific because I don't remember so unless someone wants me to look it up I'm not going to.

That reminds me of a story about a how a guy stuck a bobble head up his rear end. Like we were at the bar and he was drunk and was all like I just bought a bobble head online to stick up my rear end. A month or two later, he stuck it up his rear end.

You know what to call someone who buys too much Aliexpress stuff? A baublehead

Before I found this thread I bought a bunch of sexy dude underwear. It worked out pretty good, but you definitely need to order larger than you are. For the record, if you're looking for clothing bootlegs, there's guides out there that help you translate it into the lingo that sellers use. Sometimes they'll use the exact same branded elastic, but they'll blur the photos so you can't see it. It's there in the finished product though.

I got
- a bunch of knockoff andrew christian underwear (has a pocket for your junk). It was brightly colored and worked pretty well for gyrating at potential mates.
-some mesh undies.
-a jock strap

I washed all of it and none of it gave me caustic chemical burns. Five stars!

its nice to hear they dont just send you a vinyl tarp like 2009-era yesasia. can you point me in the right direction i tried googling your phrases

Thanks mpgs and slacksyn for the info. I bought some pins and some kind of metal collar thing for two bucks.

Whatever planes they put my orders on have been sitting in the air for world record times according to tracking. I'm beginning to think they are not planes at all and that my e parcels are floating to the eastern seaboard through natural channels

Opening a dispute is ok too, you can cancel it any time. Often they'll extend purchase protection if you ask, and if not then a dispute will buy you some time and will get their attention.

cool thanks i'll do that too

Ooh if it's only got three days left, something is probably up, unless it was a short protection period and a.long shipping time. Like, long for AE. But you just got the advice I would have given, so you're good.

thanks. it was a bunch of the pins and select all doesn't seem to work on an order of ten items from the same store so i hope they don't mind my buds copy and paste

I got a freebie belt in eight days and a skinny tie bar in 30 days! The freebie belt came with baby socks and they both reeked so badly of isoamyl acetate I left them outside for a week. They don't smell as much now but my hands and belt area smell when I wear it and I don't want to get stung by bees

i never tried the original barebones ddr mats but i can say after a weekend of stomping on it you have to get it to adhere to a solid surface like plywood and then adhere that to the floor. you can use craft store rug anchors. there will still be response issues because it doesn't handle corners well so you can't do the mall dance master trick of putting your heel and toes on two arrows at once. five stars

Does AE autotranslate item names for every region or is that just a Russia thing?

I heard what I thought was a mid 20s woman behind me talking about porn and I turned around to make an off color joke and it was a nine year old boy so I turned back around and he immediately changed the subject to his fidget cube collection. He was saving for some overpriced overengineered tungsten custom fidget cube and well who would've thought today's kids are suffering from a lack of constant animal brain stimulation, anyway I've got one for each hand and foot and I dont fidget at meetings or look at porn anymore. Thanks kids.

there is a tiny chance amazon might be punished somehow for making capitalism look bad, as opposed to zero chance from aliexpress not being even worse. however, there is a larger chance that amazon will push the envelope in the united states on how much the world's richest man can strip employee humanity, so i should buy from local businesses except for where the item only exists in other countries, like cables that wrap around the underside of my phone instead of making my usb-c port loose, an innovation i cant believe americans did not come up with first
