Isn't it amazing the trials and tribulations we go through just to eat a bowl of cereal?
Example....
You are sitting around at your computer when, suddenly, your stomach starts to growl. You exclaim "Wow. I sure could go for some cereal". Now previous attempts at getting cereal resulted in failure because there were no boxes to be found anywhere in the house.
For the story's sake, let's just say you find a box of cereal (fruity pebbles, YUM!). Next is the all-important task of opening to fridge to see if you have milk. All too often you find yourself opening the fridge and shutting it again numerous times..... hoping that one of those times... a gallon of milk will magically appear.
Again, just to keep the story going.... let's say you see the gallon of milk in your fridge. You begin to reach for it when you realize that you haven't eaten a bowl of cereal in weeks. Could this be new milk bought recently? Did somebody else finish off the other gallon of milk and replaced it with a new one? You cringe as you slowly turn the container around to see the little printed black date on the side.... ("expires two days from now... whew").
So now you have it all.... cereal.... and milk. You can sit down and enjoy a bowl rig-
WAIT A SECOND! NO CLEAN BOWLS!! FUCK!
