I had to comment about Total Recall. I loved it and I still do. Director Paul Verhoeven who displayed this dystopian capitalist future but with guns and blood! It was the same for Robocop. The story took me away and the best way I can describe it is a Lord of the Rings adventure for a David Cronenberg fan. That is why I am cringing when I go to watch the 'new' Total Recall. Have they changed it beyond all recognition? Will it be a new adventure but just as appealing? Probably not.

Why do ice cream containers keep getting smaller? First they were 2 liters, then they shrunk down to 1.89 liters, then again to I think 1.6-something liters, and now they're down to 1.5 liters. The damn sizes keep shrinking but the prices keep going up. The only ones I haven't seen shrinking are the Ben & Jerry's and Hagen Daaz ones, but they're only 500ml so I don't really see them getting any smaller, although they'll keep jacking the prices on them anyways.

And whatever happened to the 750ml bottles of soda they used to have? I miss those big tall glass bottles. :(

^ Same with bags of chips, 2 3rds of the bag is air, used to be pretty full before, but they "gotta have air to preserve it".

Is 750ml more than two litres? Maybe those bottles were before my time.

That's why I always feel the bags before I buy them. If I can't feel how high the chips go then I try another bag.

750ml is 3/4's of a liter. Here's an example of the bottles I'm talking about.

And if you're interested in buying this bottle somebody is selling it on ebay for 40$ US. :shock:

Buy 2 bags of crisps or 'potato chips' as you say in the states, and pour them all into 1 bag.. Solved :)

Yeah, but then you're paying twice the price for what you should be getting in one bag. ;)

I think there's only a handful of us really. And why should that be a problem? We're notoriously nice after all. ;)

That's odd. The Google auto search thing only gives me suggestions in a drop down form, it doesn't automatically search for things before I finish typing.
