Hackney Hipsters and Food

Amazon buys Whole Foods for $13.7 billion

Amazon wants to dominate the grocery world.
Amazon already has their AmazonFresh grocery delivery service, but it’s only available in certain areas. Expanding AmazonFresh would be costly and time consuming. By buying Whole Foods, Amazon can use the company’s nationwide locations to rapidly expand AmazonFresh in a shorter time span. The company can use their billions to negotiate lower food prices, while lowering overhead by automating in-store tasks. By offering food at lower prices and integrating handy features like online shopping and delivery, Amazon could pose a serious threat to other, less “convenient” grocery store chains.

Amazon will get more people to subscribe to Prime.
Amazon Prime customers buy more than non-Prime customers. By offering Prime benefits within Whole Foods like delivery and discounts, Amazon could get millions of new Prime subscribers. They could also integrate Whole Foods stores into their Prime ecosystem and treat it like AmazonFresh, allowing online shoppers to buy from Whole Foods without leaving home. Shoppers will then have the added incentive to buy other products through Amazon, making the retail giant even more money.

I hate hipsters. That's why I kidnapped one. Yes. I have kidnapped a hipster. Proper one. Original. Not fake. He believes his hipsterism. He walks like one. He talks like one. He even get angry like a real hipster. More surprised than angry. Confused face.
-What do you mean you kidnapped me? Who kidnaps people in London? We are in Hackney maaan.. are you kidding me??
That kind of angry. Fucker is not even angry with me. He is upset with the concept of kidnapping. He doesn't understand the reason and point of it. He is not scared at all. His hipster face with the funny beard showing signs of disagreement, causality, relaxation, panic and questions.
Yes, questions. He wants to understand and reason with the situation.
That's what they do. Explain the situation, discuss everything. They never understand the simplicity except the organic food. I will come to that later.

-What are you doing man. Let me go.
-I have questions.
-What do you mean questions? Let me go. Untie me.
-What I mean is I have questions.
-What questions?
-A lot of questions.
-Whatever man. Can you untie me and let me go please.
-Nope
-Its not funny. Let me go. NOW!!

Queenship of Mary

Mary, the mother of Jesus, was identified with the title of "Queen" at least as early as the 13th century. On October 11, 1954, during the Marian year that marked the centenary of the proclamation of the dogma of the Immaculate Conception of Mary, Pope Pius XII established the feast of the Queenship of Mary on May 31. After the Second Vatican Council, the feast (classified as an obligatory memorial) was changed to August 22 so that it would follow the Feast of the Assumption on August 15. More...
