What in the world are you wasting time picking up in the store that you forgot you're getting? Is it those little packages of fruit chews or something?

... If you don't need it, don't get it.
Usually its some form of liquid refreshment that looks delicious at the time. Often, it doesn't end well. (Most recently it was Pixie's Maté, which is pretty strong, and needs more sugar.) I really don't like shopping, so I usually speed through the store throwing things in my basket. Occaisionally I get hung up on stuff, like one month I bought a hammer everytime I went to the store. I have a few now.
I tried not buying stuff I don't need, and usually I'm pretty good about it, but sometimes I can't help it. Last week I bought 10 notebooks because they were 5 cents each, and a copy of Steamboy for $3. How could I pass up the bargains??
I also happen to think the M&M things was a riskyly graphic comparison. ... The candy that melts in your mouth, not in your hand.
What are you getting at?
"The problem is, you're not a kangaroo... that's a bear... and he's in your pants."
"Maybe artists shouldn't talk about their art."
"Well kids, I guess your father isn't a hermaphrodite."
"Izzy! enough with the rabid smootching!!"
