Arcteryx Gamma Hoodie review

[olyclimber]

I got an Arcteryx Gamma Hoodie for those morning dashes between the car and the office when its raining. I liked the understated black color and the stylish fit. I got it in the black color and goes well with black jeans and my Steve Madden shoes, capped with a simple black t-shirt. However, last Saturday while sipping on my hot caffienated beverage of choice in my coffee shop, I noticed that some of the threads have already come undone. I thought we had exported manufacturing competence to the third world? I mean, I realize these people were probably still out gathering furs of animals for trade just last year, but what does it take to train these Canadians how to stitch a thread? Do we need to send up some missionaries to convert these heathens into fine Italian tailors?

have patience, they're still learning the language, in small clod-tongued steps.

I feel that you should apologize for your hurtful statements. Those poor Canadians may one day (far in the future of course) have access to the internet and they might find this thread and be very hurt. Why, I read in The Utne Reader just the other day that they even have electricity up there now and a Starbucks is planned for whatever their big town is!

 

How long will it be before they are sipping mocchiattos and reading this site just like us, eh!?!?

Maybe it would be more humane to not teach them to read.

I believe it's too late for the approach of cultural non-interference. I mean, some guy recently just crossed the border with a bunch of delicate soil tissues on his mountain bike, thereby dooming their ecosystem, so I feel it's our responsibility to uplift the poor little dears and show them the light of reason.

We should send them a fruit basket and some bath salts.

 

You know... to be neighborly.

[Dechristo]

Surely you jest! Starbucks is planning to move into whatever is their largest settlement? They must have established a value & exchange system for shiny objects and pretty pebbles.

 

Hmmm, "shiny objects and pretty pebbles"... do the cretins to the north know what gold is? Maybe Starbucks is on to something...

We could communicate with them using drums and I have a gift certificate for a facial at my favorite spa I could donate.

[Dechristo]

Give me the certificate!

 

Don't waste that certificate on them, they'd just dip it in seal fat and eat it. Besides, have you seen their faces...eeeewwwww!

[SelfArrest]

I mourn the sweatshops of Canada. Such injustice makes me weep.

 

Can't we send them our leftover bacon?

We should send an envoy to meet with their minister of foodstuffs, Mr. Timothy Horton, esq. Perhaps offer a technology transfer from Krispy Kreme as a show of goodwill.

[olyclimber]

Perhaps we can even trade a few glass beads for kegs of liquid gold, AKA delicous...nay..superb...nay....exquisite Kokanee Glacier Beer.

There you go trying to civilize the entire world. What's next trying to spread democracy in the Middle East.
