Remember How I Posted I Didn’t Want To Shell Out For A Baby Pineapple?

Remember when I posted a few days ago that I didn’t want to shell out for a baby pineapple because Sprouts had them priced the same as normal pineapples five times bigger?

Yeah, now I want one. I’ll probably go and buy one. I’m a sucker.

I Have Trouble Paying The Same For Baby And Regular Pineapples

I have issues paying the same price for baby pineapples and regular pineapples. My wife and I ran across baby pineapples at Sprouts recently. They wanted $2.99 each for them. My wife wanted to get one. However, they also wanted $2.99 each for regular pineapples. I just couldn’t make myself go for the baby.

After all, the regular pineapple was five times the size of the baby. I know the baby is probably sweeter, and I hear the center is soft and edible whereas you should really cut out the center from regular pineapples, but still. Five times the size? The baby fit in my hand. We only would have gotten a tiny amount each. I had to go for the regular.

Couldn’t we at least have a minor price difference so I could justify it to myself?

If I Had A Spirit Animal

If I had a spirit animal, which I don’t because I’m not part of a culture that has those, it’d probably be this:

We all want to be Danger Mouse, but somebody has to be Penfold.

Better hope Michael Myers doesn’t want that money. Loomis doesn’t have much success stopping him.

Cousin Larry!

I recently watched the movie version of Noises Off made a while back. I was enjoying it, but suddenly found myself screaming: COUSIN LARRY!

How often do I run across Mark Linn-Baker in something these days (I’m sure he’s still in plenty of stuff, but just not stuff I watch)? Not everyone was a fiend for Perfect Strangers back in the day, but I sure was.

I Kind Of Want To See What That Would Be

I noticed a news article related to the March of the Juggalos recently and commented on it to my wife. For some reason, she thought I said the March of the Gigolos.

I kind of want to see what that would be like. I’m not sure D.C. is ready.
