Come on now France...

"In order to facilitate the fulfilment of the preliminary formalities for the implementation of the
processing of personal data..."

Reading this for work.  Really no other way to word these things? It's not impressive, it's annoying.

The Amazing Disappearing Pen Cap

What is it with pen caps and their ability to travel miles away from the spot you dropped them and hide in the only place you can't see?  You start to think you're going crazy - "I did just drop this right here, right? I didn't throw it across the room...I'm looking at the only place it could have landed and I'm seeing nothing."

Or the times when it drops in the perfect angle where you can't see if from where you're sitting...or crawls under your backpack...

A conspiracy, I say.

Definitely not out of a movie

I read "spectacular" in the first paragraph about this huge art robbery and got excited - but then I realized it was only spectacular because of how spectacularly pathetic the security was.  I think it might be harder to rob a convenience store if the cashier is having a bad day.
