Burning questions, part 1

-Why do the people in my house always open a new bag of tortilla chips even though there is still a perfectly good bag that is half full? We have FOUR opened bags in the pantry right now.

-Regardless of your position on abortion, does it make any sense at all to refer to the procedure as an instance of “reproductive health”? Isn’t the whole point non-reproduction?

-People in California have been putting avocados on toast since, well, someone was smart enough to plant an avocado in California. How did this get so trendy?  You can also smear smashed strawberries on toast and it tastes quite good, by the way.

-What psychologist came up with the phrase “high amplitude sucking” to describe an infant’s accelerated pace of drawing on a pacifier when exposed to interesting stimuli? High amplitude sucking? Seriously? It sounds obscene to me.

-Cricket? Wouldn’t you be much more nimble if you dropped the bat when you run?

-Socks with sandals? Come on people. The point of not enclosing the foot in leather or cloth is lost when you cover the foot in cloth or wool.
