      One wonders how long greedy corporations will continue to use “the dockworker’s strike, don’t you know” as a lame excuse to jack up retail prices now. Four months? Six?

            Peope cleared out the local grocery store of eggs on Tuesday despite our eggs being overwhelming laid domestically. The idiotic cherry on top was that the giant packs of 60 eggs were untouched. So everyone was buying a bunch of one dozen egg packs, and just leaving the bulk stuff. So that’s how I, a single guy who lives alone, ended up with 60 eggs

              If the lore is accurate, after eating all of those you should be roughly as big as a barge.

              Or dead from the cholesterol. One of the two.
