When your kid comes up and asks in no unquestioning terms what the fuck is this while holding up a bag of chips. Don't eat it. For the love of god. Don't eat it.

Chicken and waffles chips. Who's fucking idea was this shit aauugauguag. Why did I do that.

I've lost control of my life.

The worst part is Janet thinks they're okay.
Welcome to the twilight zone.
It gets even weirder once you realize that these chips are very popular. Every day, people come in asking if we have them, and we say "No, we sold out". I haven't had the chance to try them myself.

Meh, it all just about evens off with petrol prices/taxation.

Yeah, but America has massive urban sprawl, coupled with a near-complete lack of public transport in most places.  Even with lower prices, many of us spend 10-20% of our income on fuel just commuting to work and running basic errands.
I hate to break this to you SalmonGod, but Europe invented urban sprawl. American cities are far more planned.

Is the lack of public transport over there a function of the distate for socialist ideas?
Mostly, it's because the auto companies bought up all the public transport and destroyed it.

All the TV series of Pratchett's books are shit, I've found. They don't even get near as funny as the books. Nor anywhere near as interesting.

I thought Hogfather was good enough (cute Susan Death anyway). And Colour of Magic was OK. But Going Postal seems to have actively endeavoured to misunderstand the lead character and the story of the book. And the golem costumes must be from some abandoned Doctor Who prop storage/dumpster.
