Sometimes I feel this way when I’m in convenience stores, everything is made to last FOREVER, and often it’s been on the shelf for that long.
When you think about the last hundred years, and our eating largely being shaped by companies wanting food to last: both to ship it, let it sit on shelves longer, and so people will buy more of it… and if you’re critical of our modern diet for it’s highly processed foods and lack of nutrition, a convenience store really is the epitome of that.
That’s the fun thing about saying you know someone is that with everything they say, you just go “uh-huh” and smile at them assessingly.
Always ask yourself, are you in it for the love or the money. Neither right or wrong, but I think it’s good to know.
Apologies, yesterday’s strip didn’t go up until evening. My fault. But it’s up now, so click on yesterday’s strip if you missed it. :)
Bruno has a fair point here.
This is true for me, I LOVED going to the local mall (which granted was a quirky one, with a tiny bit of soul) as a kid. Ah, how our tastes change.

For a half year or so in college, I largely lived off of spaghetteeos and the like. I’d pack my lunch, 1 can, 1 can opener, 1 fork. It was always cold, which sucked.
