As a general Public Service Announcement:

[Adsos Letter]

During any period of extreme boredom (ohh...while waiting for the clothes to dry at the laundromat because your dryer at home is on the fritz for instance) do not, I repeat, DO NOT, reach idly into your coat pocket, and feeling several Charlee Bear liver flavored cracker treats left over from the previous evenings dog walk, decide to eat a handful of said Charlie Bear liver flavored cracker treats.

Not even in the name of Science, or all that is Holy and Good, or Nihilistic Despair, or a Generally Contrarian Attitude, or simple boredom.

Or because Your Spouse dares you to...

Dry mouth + plus dry doggy treat + extremely strong, concentrated taste of liver.

Don't do it.

Just Say No.

That is all.

(End of message)

1. I hope said laundromat had a beverage vending machine....

and you still had enough quarters to afford a drink after such a bad taste testing experience.....just think....someone out there has to taste these doggie treats at some point. Else how would they know it tasted like liver?

[Adsos Letter]

3. ...no...

Lack of said beverage machine had something of a force multiplier effect on the experiment.

Also the sound of gleeful, unsympathetic spousal laughter.

[VanillaRhapsody]

5. I bet the spousal unit nearly had an "accident" laughing....

I am sure I would have...

[winter is coming]

2. Are you sure the treats were for a dog? Or were they for an animal inherited from your uncle?

Bet you'll buy the bacon flavor from now on...

4. Oscar!

[Hekate]

7. Oh sweet Jesus, I remember that!

[Demo_Chris]

6. Good tip. Rec for more exposure to this useful information. nt

[Voice for Peace]

8. I hate when I do that

[awoke_in_2003]

9. I will be the lone voice of dissent

I love liver.
