At least I have a reason for my latest bout of Fear and Loathing. It’s my hormones, of course! Yes, Aunt Flo came to visit with all her lovely pain, bloating, cravings and psychotic behaviour. Nice.
::sigh:: So, it’s safe to talk to me now and all that. The worst has passed. However, I do have a rant that must be spoken. It’s about a faceless company, tho, so it doesn’t count as far as fear and loathing go.
I found out today that our precious Sampoernas are, indeed, a lost cause. Philip Morris bought the Sampoerna company last year then promptly killed it. FUCKERS. That explains why the sources for our smokes have been dwindling.
I just sent them hate mail via their spiffy new company site Altria.com. Yah, changing the name really makes you a better company. Wankers. Both Philip Morris sites make it impossible to send any comments, so I went to the parent company and blasted them there. I called them WANKERS. I told them they SUCK. I questioned why in the hell they bought into a clove cigarette company if they had no interest in selling clove cigarettes. I called them WANKERS again.
Useless, I know, but it made me feel better.
If we LIKED Djarum cloves, we’d damn well smoke them, wouldn’t we? Well, we DON’T and now we’re fucked. I spent $90 buying out 2 cartons that they’d squirrelled away at Toco Package. Djarums are harsh and nasty, but I guess it’s them or nothing now. You know, I have my vices. Three to be exact. Clove cigs, alcohol and, um, other things. That’s it. I don’t ask for much, but goddam if everything I like doesn’t get discontinued every frelling time.
I’m very irritated with Philip Morris and I think I’ll go give money to the anti-smoking nazi lobby just to get back at them. WANKERS!!!
Just writing to thank you for the info about the Classics. I’ve been searching for what happened to them for months. Glad to know. Sorry they’re gone. I sent them a nasty email, too.
