L'next day (today, and several days last week) I heard a conversation on the train that was more or less:
high squeaky voice : My girlfriend (note the blogger: my gaydar was red, but Mr. insisted that he had a girlfriend. Seh) asked me for Christmas a down jacket (Note the blogger: duvet, goose or poultry like it) / (note the blogger surface: in RW & Co were liquidating some divine capped at $ 169 GIFT! Walk lady. Compare prices)
Mr Asia: Oh, yeah?
high squeaky voice: Yes, but I said I wanted one of Canada Goose, and are expensive!
Ahi I thought -
a) What will the Canadian geese are not the Chinese?
b) geese Chinese also let them have only one gosling per couple ?
c) require Canada geese being plucked from a more humane?
d) do such as pretentious imaginary girlfriend also ask for specific things for Christmas when we all know it's much better to torture your partner saying "buy what you want" and then try to understand the subtle clues that you leaving during the year, tortured slowly and then open-faced gift "I bought this?" but to say "thank you very much, I love it because your mother taught you a gift horse is not looking teeth - calls expensive things!
But then I learned that Canada Goose cheta is a brand of jackets for extreme cold (jacket, for those who do not speak like Argentina) to about 50 years ago there, and I just discovered its existence. (5 years in Canada should have made me more observant. But no)
But the interesting thing about this situation (bueh, interesting) is that from the moment that Mr High with squeaky voice said the word Canada Goose , I keep seeing people with the jacket with the logo of the brand everywhere.
EVERYWHERE.
As if I had uncovered the super-power to see ghosts and suddenly I found myself looking everywhere muertitos à la Sixth Sense.
From last Thursday until today I counted about 46 little guy with Canada Goose jackets. 46! 46 people wearing coats of the same brand. These bastard breed like rabbits.
And I ignored for years.
I wonder what else I'll be losing.
I have Alzheimer's?
selective blindness?
I told them about the Canada Goose jackets?
Ah.
So begins.
