Note to self:

[RickinNYC]

When you finish the little freebie bag of chips that came with your sandwich, don't EVER tilt the bag to your mouth to get the last salty crumbs. Your contact lenses (and co-workers next to you) will thank you.

Carry on.

 

[mrsv98]

So Rick are you saying you need safety goggles to eat chips???

 

[RickinNYC]

Note to self:

Buy safety goggles.

 

[Chicago526]

Whoa...did that chip bag have a warning lable? Did it caution you against tipping the bag towards your face and that injury may result?

Lawyer up! Sue that company back to the stone age!!! They should pay to replace your contacts, plus an 8 digit settlement for pain, suffering, and embarasement caused by having your co-workers point and laugh at you.

 

[Todd&Copper]

Can you tilt if you are outside and either (1) close your eyes, or (2) wear glasses?


I don't know why I am asking. I just lick my finger and slide it all around inside the bag for the delicious remnants and bits.

 

[Cindy B]

You can only do that in your car-- that way no one sees you.

(Apparently if you are a woman and do this, it's considered gross).

BTDT!

 

[Uncle Remus]

And warn your coworkers of impendin' action too.

 

[RickinNYC]

So far, I see my options are:

1. Safety goggles
2. Close my eyes
3. Don't wear contact lenses when eating chips. Wear glasses. Less painful.
4. Smack my co-workers for laughing
5. Eat chips but only my car... which I don't have... which means the subway then... which means more public humiliation.
6. Sue Ruffles for everything, put it out of business, buy it with the billions I make in a suit, and then hire back only the really hot factory workers so that I can have them personally feed me the chips in question.

Personally, I like 6.

 

[Cindy B]

I like your options..especially #6!

However, I've been to some potato chip factories (on field trips!).. and well, if you like older 60 plus men with hairnets.. it's for you.

As for the subway, if it's anything like I've experienced, someone eating chips clumsily is on the "lower" rung of entertainment as compared to the dancers, people selling stuff in the aisle, and the hookers!

Uh, did you want to take some friends to Disney too?

 

[Missy1961]

Or you can do what my dad does: carefully rip the bag down the middle, then moisten your fingers to pick up those last few chips.

I prefer to simply pour the contents into a bowl. No chance of getting chip fragments in your eyes, or having the bag rip & the contents landing on the floor.

but I do like #6 on your list too.

So let's change #6 to: 6. Sue Ruffles for everything, put it out of business, buy it with the billions I make in a suit, and then hire only the really hot guys (ages 25-45 please) in town so that I can have them personally feed me the chips in question.

 

[RickinNYC]

Nope. Can't say that occurred to me. Not sure why you brought that up. Gotta go.

 

[teacups]

You get Ruffles free with your sandwich? Whoa!! We get free Joe Generic here... It's not the crumbs that fly out of the bag that gets you, it's the oil spill!

I go only to the finest bodegas.

 

[Todd&Copper]

I go only to the finest bodegas.

There are no bodegas within the few block of my office here in DC. A few "roach coach" hot dog carts selling the infamous "half smokes", but they only have Utz chips in plain and BBQ, mostly.

I'm jus jellus!

Here...you can multi task

Gotta love me those roach coaches! LOL!

Funny thing is that they apparently have been giving out the chips the entire time I've been frequenting this place, almost 4 years now. The cashier finally asked me how come I never take the chips. I think I did my best "Whachoo talkin' 'bout Willis?" looks I was so confused. Free stuff in NYC? Who'd a thunk it.

 

[Todd&Copper]

Say WHAT? FOUR YEARS before she asked if you wanted the chips???? I think you need your "back chip pay" for all of those sammies!

You get brand name chips?

At my old school (in an urban area) it was Homegirl Chips. Honest, that was the name!

Picture chips in a blue bag with various female African American women on it in various dress and poses.
