16. I haven't had those for years, but they were always a weakness

Tue Nov 25, 2025, 10:14 PM

Tuesday

when I just wanted something stupid to make me feel better.

The budget mixes are better but they lack the chemical bite of those cupcakes plus the greasy, sugary trans fat filling. Hey, I'm not judging you, remember I ate 'em too.

Shrinkflation is hitting everything. Toilet paper gets much narrower, I'll be able to use i for hair ribbon.

I just wonder who these assholes think they're fooling with this shit. I know I'd rather have things stay the same size and be able to make a choice on whether or not I can afford it as is.
