Come back 2 minutes later and they've literally consumed half the brand new box (that holds like 30-40 pieces) on their own.

You were offered 1-2, why did you literally take 10-20? You consumed that much in 2 minutes and you're sitting there with a defensive body language because you're expecting consternation for your actions or something? Holy ####ing diabetus man.
Is this a form of inflation? Human inflation?

I didn't know haggis has been banned in the USA since 1971. poor buggers.
I love the stuff.

This boiled bag of offal is banned in the US. In Scotland it’s a fine-dining treat

Apparently, someone stole a giant red spoon from a Dairy Queen.
It was found by a 52 year old playing Pokemon GO. I don't know which is funnier to me, that someone stole a giant red spoon, or a 52 year old playing Pokemon Go found it and admitted finding while playing Pokemon Go.

No idea. I've since heard anecdotes that the individual has been known in the past to chew dozens of hard mints simultaneously and sounding like a gravel crusher from across the room.

I wonder when the last old guy who puts a CAA sticker on his back window will die. Surely nobody under 75 would do such a thing.

Yep, there are sticks. They’re savoury, not the sickly sweet wafer ones that are essentially corn syrup and sesame seeds.

You get them in bulk at Community Natural Foods.

Can’t believe someone disrespected sesame snaps when they’re eating cat turds instead.

There’s an old couple that I’ve seem driving around in a pristine-looking 70s Honda Civic and I am coveting it. I wish they still made something like that.

Uh...a 70s Civic? A screwdriver and some willpower and that thing is yours.

My first car was a 72 civic in British Racing Green. Rolled it coming down 10th St hill in Bridgeland. It was a wright off but drove it home from the impound lot the next day.

The car is also comically small for the people driving it, imagine the Dursleys in Harry Potter.

Compared to any modern car, with occupants of any size, a '70s Civic is comically small.

I’ve been feeling rather nostalgic lately about my ‘91 notchback.

Mine's an '84 notchback.

Not in great condition, I'll admit, but with a 347 stroker.
