How many of you remember Mikey from Life Cereal fame? His brothers gave him a bowl of life cereal because they were scared to try it. One brother said, "he won't eat it, he hates everything" and the point of the commercial is that Mikey not only eats it, but likes it ..."Hey, he likes it!" and so the whole family (theoretically) lives happily ever after eating Life cereal for breakfast.
My point of this? Well, we had a discussion on quirks, I guess this could be my biggest pet peeve. Why do so many people misquote this commercial? Example: Someone had a piece of cake they wanted to get rid of....one after another of us said no thanks. Finally somebody took the cake and ate it. Of course then the scuttlebutt was all..."yeah, give it to Mikey, he'll eat anything."
Am I the only person in the world that know what the commercial was all about? It just doesn't make sense to get excited over a food that you give to a person who will eat anything...I don't ever take my youngest's recommendations on food seriously, he will eat anything that doesn't bite him first. Why would I want to depend upon his recommendation?
Ok, sorry, long day, and I got carried away.
