Just As I Thought

Size Matters

Halloween candy comes in tiny little packets, which are labeled “Fun Size.” Frankly, I think it would be more fun if the packets were bigger.
Bars of soap come in packages that say “Bath Size.” Do you need a different size of soap if you’re taking a shower?
At McDonalds, there’s no small. Only “regular.” So, regular=small, large=medium, and supersize=large. Of course, in reality, supersize=could feed family of 6.
The smallest box of laundry detergent that I could find at the grocery store this morning was “Jumbo”. It was pretty small. If there was truth in labeling, it should have been a Fun Size.

    It’s one thing to call something other than small, med. and large- it’s another to do it in 3 different languages. I don’t care how elite you try to make it, it’s still just coffee.
