  • My Arch Nemesis!

    Just a stupid little sighting this, though to be honest it left me with a giggle.

    While at the store today, I watched this guy in front of me. He was holding up a box of the new Altoids Dark Chocolate mints. The Creme De Menthe ones.

    Standing there for a bit he looked right at it and spoke to the box "I face you my nemesis! I swear I will overcome your tempting draw. I will not buy you or your evil non chocolately brother!"

    He put the box down, went to check out and then just before he was done, picked the box up and handed it to the cashier.

    Having bought and tried them...I understand his frustration.
    Learn wisdom by the follies of others.

        I have done that, and I am not ashamed.

          I've done that, but differently:

          I was in the music store, playing a fancy Epiphone Dot, and I was playing "Four" by Miles Davis. I messed up the second ending and spun around in my chair yelling, "KAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHN!"

            It sounds like his chocolate nemesis won.

                  I haven't been able to eat Altoids since I quit smoking and my taste buds "grew back". I miss those things!

                    When I saw the thread title, I thought Churchlady was giving you more grief.

                    But yeah...Altoids. Delicious.
