Imagine Your Figurines from China Delivered Like This

Artefact of Sankaku Complex posted up a YouTube video which is fairly interesting – boxes being thrown everywhere, by a delivery man. OMG.

China’s largest delivery company caught in the act of throwing parcels. Your figurines could be inside! ~_~

While this case might be isolated, and we shouldn’t judge purely on one video, I like to avoid ordering from China now. Have you ever ordered anything that is from China and is your parcel looking a bit weird with some dents? =/

646 Calories Pizza Slice

Are you a fan of pizza? I know I am. Love to have pizza with my friends. Love Hawaiian pizza XD. Being down with a cough these past few weeks, I have decided that once I am officially okay, the first thing on my to-eat list is PIZZAA!! ^^

The picture above is Pizza Hut Japan’s Double Roll Pizza, and it packed a whopping 646 calories per slice. Omg. Imagine consuming like 3-4 slices, it’s like 2 meals for me already! O_O
