Let them eat cake .. via Amazon Prime (today in Sicily)

My brother snapped this shot earlier today, on a half-day sight-seeing cruise, as they headed back into harbor somewhere on the north coast of Sicily. Guess whose yacht this is coming out of port, and guess the name of the yacht.

Here, I'll help with a hint: Jeff Bezos.

The yacht's name (and you can't make this shit up) is "Flying Fox." As in: "So your Amazon Prime order is lost, we don't give two Flying Fucks."

And from the photograph, you can't really tell the scale of that behemoth.

It's not built for bass fishing - is all I'm saying.

Nobody needs that kind of disgusting wealth.

But it is available for rent when the boss isn't using it. I wonder if me and my buds could get it for half a day for a little deep-sea fishing. We'd bring our own beer.

It works really well for me,
an elderly disabled shut-in.

I pay $6 and change a month for the discounted prime monthly membership.
It gives me free shipping and free access to Amazon prime TV.

And for those on food stamps they do accept EBT as payment for food on their Amazon website.

so I don’t go out much. I rely on a lot of drive through pick ups, and deliveries and Prime factors into what I have to rely on to get by.

ashamed to say I probably paid for one nut or screw or bolt on that behemoth.
