Makes sense.

I just walked passed that under I-5 on Ravenna. Said to my wife "you want 1/2 a snickers?"

On an aside I think marketing figured out how to shave 1/2 inch off the giant Snickers bar and sell as two bars. Saving the company millions.

Back in the day when I was super poor (as opposed to just plain old poor) I took a 10 hour greyhound trip across NY state. Spent my last dollars on the ticket, so I couldn't afford to eat. Lo and behold, 5 hours into the trip I discover a half eaten king sized Hershey Bar in the rubber gasket at the bottom of window. With almonds!

So I sat there for five hours contemplating the dilemma; my hunger vs. the effect eating found chocolate would have on my soul.

You should eat a shopping cart instead.

Check out this hip new Internet called Instagram, they live for this stuff there. It'll blow your followers' minds when you not only show the world the next thing you see on the street, but you make the colors all old-timey.

5: Well, dammit, did you eat it or not? Or is this a "Choose Your Own Adventure" question?

@8: Definitely ain't Snickers inside that wrapper.

No, I didn't eat it.

@5. In college I took a greyhound from Milwaukee to Ashland OR. Spent all my cash while there and was too proud to call the folks and beg. By day 2 of the return trip I was starving....we stopped in a small Montana town. Walked to a grocery just to look. Free SAMPLE DAY!! Stuffed myself and it was awesome!!

@13 incidentally, that is what Montana Republicans mean by privatizing social services.
