If they can put a man on Venus, why can't they...
Edited on Tue Aug-08-06 04:26 PM by Philosoraptor
Fill a bag o' chips all the way to the damned top? I KNOW that some settling occurs during packaging and shipping, but, why can't they pre shake them, to pre settle them and then refill and then shake again till its ALL settled and give a customer what the hell he paid for and not some damned excuse printed on every bag! Its a billion dollar a year rip off!

Am I the only lonely voice out here that feels this way?

12. Hell yes. L Ron Hubbard has been to Venus several times
http://www.xenu.net/archive/multimedia.html

The dude had game.



"Mary Sue gave the cue on this thing. She said, "Look at how hard they have to work to keep you from being OT!" Hey, now, that's quite a thought! Isn't that quite a thought? Hm?
Now you look at this. You look at this, now. The complete idiocy of it. Somebody sits up on Venus -- there are probably some other stations around up in the system. This one's on Venus. I notice that we all believe that Venus has a methane atmosphere and is unlivable. I almost got run down by a freight locomotive the other day -- didn't look very uncivilized to me. I'm allergic to freight locomotives, they're always running into you."

9. The air is there for a reason!
It is intentionally puffed up with air so the chips don't turn into potato flour!
