What if Hellman's really was your best?
That joke about the hokey pokey got me thinking. You know the one: "What if the hokey pokey REALLY WAS what it's all about?"

I just made a sandwich and started singing the Hellman's jingle "Bring out your Hellman's and bring out your best." Well, what if bringing out the Hellman's really was your best? Purchasing one specific condiment made by one specific company, and your choice to spread it onto your sandwich and/or add it to you potato salad.....that's the literally "the best" you can do. Would that be a sad life because of its insignificance? Or would it be a happy life because you could achieve your personal best by merely buying and using Hellman's mayonnaise?

:shrug:

1. I'd have an excuse for a poorly written term paper?
"I'm sorry professor, but if I put my "best" on paper, it'll end up moist and illegible."

4. That's a questionable way to recycle paper.

There for it is both at the same time.

6. not as horrifying as those Old Milwaukee commercials
that generally involved what looked like a bunch men living outdoors, like hobos, and sitting around a fire, saying "It doesn't get any better than this!"

Well, kill me now if that's true.

7. Agreed.
I'd prefer some female companionship....but that's me. Libra. The scales!
