The Problem with Society...Amazon?

I'm not really sure why this bothers me the way it does...but am I the only one who sees a problem with being able to order your groceries at the same place you can order a copy of the Bob Guccione classic Caligula?

But, if the eternal question burning in your life right now is how to obtain art house porn and a few pounds of coffee...Amazon is your new friend.

I am not really sure at what point in time the nexxus of the food and video world collided but I think that this may be one of the biblical signs of the apocalypse. Not sure if a plague of the insane was actually in the bible...but if anyone saw it coming!

I stumbled across this while reading the ads on Things JK Eats, I was shocked that if I felt the need to get a wholesale size box of Pop Tarts I could....but to make matters worse (depending on how you look at things) I could also have the order automatically re-upped every 1, 2, 3 or 6 months.

Now I like Pop Tarts as much as the next guy but, is it ever necessary to have 12 8count boxes on hand EVERY MONTH.

OK to re-up every month automatically:
Grandpa's heart Meds
....ok....any Medication
THAT'S ABOUT IT.... MEDICATION

Not necessary:
POP TARTS
GO-GERT
Dwight Yoakam's Chicken Lickin's Chicken Rings Afire (check out the previously mentioned Things JK Eats if you have doubts)

Again, not sure why this bothers me...but it does!!

Now if you want to buy a grilled cheese sandwich with the face of the Virgin Mary on it....that's another food story!
