The agony of Tostitos

Watching recent commercials (exemplars above and below) for the tasty chips, I'm more and more thinking something must be wrong with me, since I've never agonized over which junk food to buy as long as I've been buying junk food, which is a long, long time.

I mean, c'mon โ€” Doritos, Tostitos, Kettle Chips, it's not anesthesiology.

Get one of each โ€” that always works for me.

I agree totally, usually the tongue will override the mind, you will give it what it wants, not what your mind is confused with. Salty, sweet, sour, spicy, alcohol, etc... The tongue always wins with "normal" people!

Oh, yeah, I forgot, on the subject of the agonizing over which junk food to get -- if you only had a couple dollars in your budget left for totally empty, useless, unnecessary-for-good-health calorie consumption, a person could agonize. Haven't you ever? Go in the store and you get what you need, you have X dollars left, enough to get one king size candy bar, but which one? The Snickers has the crunchy nuts, but the Twix has the cookie; wait, the Kit Kat probably has less horrible stuff in it because it's just wafers and chocolate; but it's been so LONG since you had a Baby Ruth, and there's the appeal of the knobby-looking shape of the thing; oh, the Butterfinger and the peanut-buttery goodness!; and speaking of peanut butter, imagine biting into a nice fresh (they're fresh - I checked the sell by date) peanut butter cup, all that yummy salty peanutty chocolately melty wonderfulness... That's agony. So I buy some Life Savers because I can't decide.

Wait a minute -- it COULD be anesthesiology... I mean, if you whacked somebody on the head REAL hard with a big like five-pound sack of Doritos, maybe. No, no -- if you hit them in the head with a CASE of Doritos, yeah, that's it. Out cold -- boom --anesthesiology!

Doritofol?
Tost-ether?

the other day i saw one of these commercials while at applebees.
there was no sound on the tv, that made it kind of creepy.
we weren't hearing their thoughts,
we were just awkwardly staring at them.
