Oh I LOVE those things. The chips, not Mr. T graphics.

I used to get them at this great deli in Rochester. Oh how I miss it.

And oh how I long for my little bag of popcorn. I ate it all.

No more popcorn.

I was eating popcorn at the EXACT TIME the other thread was going on. Some kind of crazy concordance of the fractels of the space-time (~*Timespace!*~) continuum, as seen from The Ledge through the vacuum created by my popcorn bag, which allows all possibly universi to exist at once, with the same happenstance occurring in each.

Don't worry if you aren't as learned in the workings of science as I am.

Also, if you think I made up some of those words, I didn't!!

Edit: and for the record, to get the time, we always dialed 7678900. I have no idea if that is popcorn, and am waaaay too lazy to walk four feet to my phone and figure it out. The popcorn I ate lowered my blood sugar too much.

Wait until you read my edited version! Also, just so you know, your nose is a parallel universe portal into my house 2 days from now, coincidentally when I am very, very thirsty. So I'd like to thank you in advance for the delicious Sprite. Stevie's nose hole is so big that hers reaches a parallel universe into the entire Middle Ages. That's why she's so britishy and whimsical and stuff. Also that is why she has The Plague. I hope her festering buboes go away soon.

I'm surprised you don't know these things, Carrie, I thought you were good at science. I guess I'm beyond the common mind.

I had that same small bag of popcorn. I wanted more when it was gone, too. I want the butteryest one, so I had to sacrifice and get the "snack size" bags, so in order not to consume 50,000 calories and 100 grams of fat in popcorn each day.

Strange.
I ate popcorn today and I never really do. Maybe once a year. I like popcorn but it is a high maintenance food as it gets stuck in my teeth. Not worth bothering about.

As for Popcorn/Time, I'm not surprised it is no longer available. Plenty of ways to get real time. Just look at your cell phone or online time.

Although you never really had to dial P-O-P-C-O-R-N. You could just dial 767 and then any other 4 digits. The entire prefix was blocked for time. So dial 767-f*uck would get you the time, at least before the service ended.

It's because of the portal I ripped in the space-time continuum, which made all happenstances (i.e, anything popcorn related) occur at once. Sorry about that.

No worries. I faired pretty well considering the circumstances. In fact, not one morsel got stuck in my teeth.

Ever eat those nasty ass popcorn flavored Jelly Belly's? It tastes like popcorn, but it gets real nasty when you're still chewing it long after a real popcorn would be done. Yuck.

Yes, I hate those bellies. I still would eat them, though, if they were the only thing. Just like watermelon flavored candy.

I like day-old popcorn. I'll pop a bag, dump it all into a ziploc and stash it in a cupboard for a night. Mmmm.

I've done that too, but not on purpose. Now I've discovered re-heating cold popcorn in my oven.
It must be the same thing as why I love cold, congealed pizza. It's the congealed part that adds extra goodness. And it is much more tidy then all that dripping greasy ooze that melty fat bestows upon your fingers.

Oh man. I love pizza that's been in the fridge for like 30-40 minutes. When it's not quite cold, but it's nice and lukewarm and doesn't get all over the place. That's when it tastes best to me.

Oddly, that stage kind of grosses me out. I think because the grease is semi clear colored, as opposed to clear (when hot) or blended (when cold).
But of course, in the abstract, I see its appeal. Also, I've eaten it that way a million times.

Just 'cause I say something is gross, doesn't mean I won't eat it.

Now that I think, you are right. I like when the top grease is solid, but the sauce underneath is still vaguely warm. I stand corrected. Also, it's fricking pizza. It will pretty much always taste good.
