Amazon.com is not as good as sex

31 Jan, 2007  Mundanity, Pretensions

Doppelganger links to a post about “breaking your Amazon cherry.” Since I seldom order from Amazon using my own account (usually I use Plagioclase’s), I logged in to look at his order history.

And as far as I can tell, it’s incorrect. It may be that he was using a different account name before 1997 (since that is the earliest order in their system — Oct 6, Evolution of Physics) or they changed their system sometime in their first two years, but this order was placed after we returned from abroad — and I distinctly remember getting (and using!) amazon.com swag while we lived out of the US.

So I suppose the take away from this story is: buying at Amazon isn’t as good as having sex, because if you can’t remember your first time, it wasn’t too special.

    Yeah, I agree with you, I don’t remember my first Amazon order, either (and, no, it’s not because I have a punk-ass male brain)(although I do).

    But how about, “Amazon is as good as masturbating”?
