[Bit 1]

So I got sober three years ago when I walked into a Dollar General and I saw these white chocolate macadamia nuts.
When I tasted them, it felt like a Yu-Gi-Oh! card. I got one that was the best one and I fucking tasted
rebel. It was amazing.
But then I realized I had one package and I got so productive. It was like I was on meth.
I came in, I ran a 5k of blue jeans, I mowed my lawn.
I even did all 12 steps of AA.
Now I was feeding when I came back.
Pay back to the Dollar General, I was ready.
And then $15 generals and $6 trees later,
I couldn't find them.
It was like they were my Quaaludes.
And then I looked on Google.
And when I looked on Google, I found out this.
The company had been out of business for three years.
It was crazy. It was like they were right next to a tiny nuclear plant.
I didn't know if I was hurting my brain more or I was becoming a ninja turtle.
