My Pringle is ...smaller than yours?
« on: August 13, 2004, 04:00:00 AM »
Has anyone else noticed this? In the popular name brand chip "Pringles." I think they've gotten smaller. I can mostly realize this because I can fit one whole chip in my mouth. Whats the deal with that?

Pringles are of the devil.

I've just about always been able to fit a whole pringle in my mouth, they weren't that big to begin with.  I don't really eat pringles, so I can't help.  I love how you called them a "popular brand name chip".  That's enertainment.

I'll break it down for you Gorgon the Wonderless Bovine.

Popular: Pringles has had multitudes of commercials on the television and other advertising spaces.

Name Brand: Most people know what a Pringle is when you ask them.

Chip: It's crispy, crunchy, and it's very chippy.

Maybe it's just because I haven't had them in such a long while. But I still think they got smaller.

Obviously part of the international conspiracy to figure out what the hell Gemm is on.
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

Potato chips occur when a sharp plane or curvy edge intersects multiple times with a potato, creating a segment of negligible thickness.

This does not occur in the unholy fabrication of Pringles. Thus, Pringles are an offense to nature and to all that is right and good in the world.

All you need to know Entropy is that Gemm is on.

For the record, Gemm, I didn't say it was WRONG to say "Popular Brand Chip 'Pringles'", I just said it was funny, which it was.  Heh heh... heh.
