*pat pat* The worst offender for planned obsolescence is electronics.

But the garment/fashion industry too...It used to be that Italian and French clothes will last you _decades_ (I have shirts that I've had for at least a dozen years). But nowadays, according to my mom, even Italian and French clothes don't last for a long time. And of course cheapo clothes only last, what, half a dozen times (if that) in the washer before it looks worn. !111 WASTE, WASTE EVERYWHERE. >=(

(Boiled) tap water in Bali tastes oily, for some reason. East Coast water didn't taste good to me; don't remember what it tastes like. Canada hardly has any water fountain.

Is it just his writing style that you can't get into or...?

The water tastes different from one city to the other, here.

I think I've only had tap water in Vancouver? When I was in Toronto I probably drank mineral water/bottled water exclusively. Or if I did drink tap water I couldn't tell the difference.

"planned obsolescence made obsolete" would make such a cool headline lol
