I ordered some ‘adult’ clothes for my missus the other day from a seemingly UK store (.co.uk domain). Normally parcels get delivered within 2-3 days but this was taking longer. When checking the package tracking link, I noticed that it’s coming from the US and that’s why it’s taking a lot longer than I expected.

Lesson learned: I need to check the FAQ, help, etc. pages and fine prints for information about the origins of stuff I’m about to order. :/

    Oh wow, thanks! I’ve ordered a few tonnes of them. :)

    Joking aside, the TLD wasn’t the only thing that was UK specific, its contents and language (British English) are also very convincing.
