    There’s a fairly big tourist attraction in my town, (I don’t understand why its basically just a shopping centre of big luxury brands e.g. gucci, lindt etc.) On the lead up to it there’s a somewhat confusing set of crossroads, people will realise they’re in the wrong lane and proceed to speed crossing over sometimes multiple lanes almost causing many accidents. Its a busy main road too, its the towns access from a nearby city and motorway, and the other lanes they drive out of/over are ones that go into the centre of town.

      Luxury brands

      .

      Lindt

      lol.

      *Is Lindt actually considered a luxury? What they manufacture is more akin to overrated mass-produced mid-tier chocholate.

        There’s a lot of “chocolate” in the US that doesn’t qualify as chocolate in sane countries because it has too much wax or other additives in it. US “chocolate” bar in Canada has to be called a “candy” bar.
        Same way their “milk” has too much other garbage in it to qualify as “milk” in Canada.

        Lindt, otoh, is /actual/ chocolate. So it’s seen as luxurious.

        At least in the US they are some of the best chocolate you can regularly find. We don’t have a lot of good options easily accessible.
