Things you thought would be awful but actually are amazing

Dolce Gusto

What's the point in spending £100 on a coffee machine that you have to use it's own refills with? I like instant coffee.

Um.

Actually this is amazing. It does lots of doobries with the coffee that you wouldn't think. The pods are more than just pods too, they do stuff. And, well. I dunno. It basically makes really nice tasting coffee, and the pods actually work out relatively cheap.


Chai Tea Lattes

I HATE TEA. I hate the taste of tea. I hate everything about tea.

But, um, in a latte, chai tea is fucking beautiful.


Windows 8 Metro

Start menus are stupid and only likeable because they're what we've got used to. I use Metro for everything, it's so useful. Folder after folder is silly when you can have a visual representation of every program fit on one screen. In my opinion.

The range.

I thought it would be just another big box store, but it's well lain out, smartly finished, has a coffee shop and toilets, etc. I could spend all day there buying so much stuff, and the range they stock is worthy of the title - so much stuff.

I thought an anime by the name of Puella Magi Madoka Magica was going to be terrible, but it turns out I loved it until the very end!

I even have a Madoka figure. <333
