Getting Stuffed.

The need to use every night out as an excuse to spend money on prepared food is definitely a modern phenomenon. At one time people would go out to the pictures or the pub, or wherever, and then they’d go home. They might occasionally call for a cheap bag of chips on the way, but that was usually it.

Now it seems that wherever you go, you have to round off the evening by stuffing yourself full of fat, sugar and monosodium freggin’ glutamate. I swear this is going beyond a social convention and becoming a cultural neurosis.

I think I’m in a nadgy mood again. Actually, I know I am. I just counted five good reasons why.
