loud

Who said it was okay for popcorn to be a snack at the movies and why couldn’t they have chosen something, oh I don’t know, maybe a little less deafening? 

 

I finally went to see The Wrestler this weekend (awesome) and had a difficult time hearing the on-stage staple gun tactics over what seemed to be 25 people sitting immediately to my left, my right, in my lap and on my shoulders, all chowing down about 38 kernels at a time.  I’d rather smell hot dogs and deviled eggs for 2 hours than hear horses people chewing on popcorn during the whole dang thing.

 

I’m not a movie nazi (unlike some of my friends – you know who you are) and I love popcorn, but I just don’t get it.

 

I’m going to open up my own movie theater in Santa Monica and only sell cupcakes, falafel and macaroni & cheese.

rip-twix

MSN Health & Fitness just told me that Twix – my hands down, without a doubt favorite piece of deliciousness of all time -  is the worst candy bar I can consume.  The amount of saturated fat is equivalent to 11 STRIPS OF BACON.  Eleven. 

 

My heart has been broken and smashed into little chocolate and caramel-covered graham cracker shards.
