This is effin’ awesome. The only way it could be more effin’ awesome, is if this Japanese department store offered 100% off of effin’ everything.

Spring Court Australia’s Christmas Deal has earned them a place at the top of the “Brands that don’t sub-edit” list for the week. 1. “Participants” is spelled wrong. 2.

I would like to raise the following two points with this restaurant: That’s not how you spell “appetizer” here in the US. (For those who use Australian or UK English, you’d spell this “appetiser”.
