H-Mart<\/a> opened near me recently (well, 20 miles away. That counts, for me). First time I bought something there they instantly emailed me a receipt. But I had never given them my email address, and they'd never asked. They must have got it by association with my credit card somehow.<\/p>\nA couple of weeks ago, I wanted a snack, so I stopped at one of the stalls in their food court and got something I'd never had before: Taiwanese popcorn chicken. It's just small chunks of seasoned boneless fried chicken with fried basil leaves. Tasty enough.<\/p>\n

The world sees me and acknowledges me and wants me to be happy.<\/p>\n
