With me, it's not so much M&Ms, but Lindt Lindor truffles...

I try not to have them around, because I eat them too quickly. Over the course of a few days, they're gone.


Can't say I've ever tried 'em. I know of 'em, but shit, I've never tried anything remotely similar. Perhaps I should hop on that?

It depends. How do you feel about milk chocolate with a melting filling?

Also... oh, crap! I've just made myself hungry. May have to treat myself to some chocolate...

So I have a toxic brain and an internet doing its level best to make it all worse.

And no clue what I can do to try and turn it around.

My little brother is moving out again. To the same stump trailer he lived in last time with his bum best friend. And according to mom, he isn't coming back again if he doesn't have a job.

Sounds like a harsh day for your Brother. Living in a trailer can be cozy, sometimes.

Same. The only time I ever like eating pineapples is when theres small bits of it scattered on pizza.

Well, I’d be okay with the most part, but pizzas on pineapple is not the future, and I will continue to resist thinking about it. It should be the other way around.

Hawaiian is the only pizza I eat. So simple and juicy. Change my opinion.

I don't eat just Hawaiian. BBQ Chicken, and Meat Lovers. Those three are my main choices.

I should probably try other flavours. I only eat Hawaiian because it’s the only one I’m familiar to. Speaking of pizzas, I’ve never tried pepperoni too. No doubt I’ve heard much of it.

I had a boss who did that. When his kids finished college, he and the wife sold the house and bought a sailboat. Kinda rough during the winter, but spring and summer were sweet. They sailed as a hobby.
