Expecting stuff from Amazon?

I wish! I haven't ordered anything of Amazon in ages!

Ever since I got a debit card, Amazon's been lit'rally the most dangerous place on the planet!

So what's "it"?

It can get that way. I've got amazon prime too so most everything I order has free two day shipping. It's amazing. Best mistake I ever made. Or worse. I can't decide!

Pumpkin Spiced beer. I don't drink much but come this time of year the likelihood that I will increases by, well, a lot!

Consumerist Achilles' Heel! At least they mostly let you go "Haha, NOPE, what was I thinking?!" and ship stuff right back if you come to your senses!

Is this something you wait for all year, like the Shamrock Shake?

This is very true though admittedly, at least when I order, I know exactly what I'm getting into.

I don't necessarily look forwards to it because me + alcohol = bad. It's a formula for chaos! But, I have to admit I like me some spiced beer.

I...suffer from impulse control issues. So. I might've returned a lot of shoes and power tools last year.

There can't be too much alcohol in one bottle of beer! So you can totally just drink it for the taste!

Thankfully I'm great at controlling my wants. Probably crushingly so though at times. Though when it comes to spiced beers? I'm all out of luck. It's why I love ciders.

Not in one, my problem is having the one and then stopping.

D'you have a trick for turning off the must-have switch? Because that's probably my biggest shortcoming. You know, if that weren't an oxymoron.

Ohhh. Yeah you...you don't look like a heavyweight.

I look at it in terms of need. If I don't need it, or have any use for it, I don't get it. Even if I really want it if it's not important to have I usually just ignore my need for it. It's not always so easy though, and admittedly I sometimes don't have the willpower I'd like to think I have. I'm only human.

Oh no, it goes right through me. I'm barely fourteen stone so beer and I have a love hate relationship to say the least!

But life's too short to deny yourself fun stuff! You never know when a piano could drop from the sky.

I bet you're a hilarious drunk, though!

I don't deny myself all of the fun stuff. But some things, well, just because you want them doesn't mean you should have them. If we got everything we wanted it wouldn't make the things we got feel special.
And if the piano falls from the sky? Well that's it! I don't think I'd care much because a piano would have cracked my skull open! I don't think I'd be wishing "oh, I wish I'd've 'ad that signed star trek poster! Oh wait that's Ebay not Amazon.

I've been told as such. Though I'm only entertaining for a couple of hours before I revert into 'I'm so sorry I'm drunk' mode which I remain in until I pass out.
