Why I hate the internet

Dagnabbit!
There I was, earlier this week, when it came to me: if I ever open a specialty supermarket that focuses on U.K. imports, I could call it The British Aisles!
Heh, I laughed to myself. That's good. The Brits eat up puns like so many meat-and-pastry products.
But then I checked to see if anyone else had come up with the same idea. Yeah, only 1,620 people (or at least Google results, as of this writing).
Back before the internet, I would have been secure in the knowledge that I was one of the most clever supermarket-namers around. But no, the harsh reality of the internet tells me it just ain't so.
Man, the internet is such a downer.
