Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The chips in the bag lunches are baked what kind of shit is that?!!??

I'm not a chip-eater, so bear with me. Are baked chips gross?

Chips are meant to be greasy, fried, salty and generally bad for you. Baking them makes them less so - supposedly healthier for you, but not as good. (Maybe they're less unhealthy because you don't eat as many.)

Huh. Apparently the Scythians gave rise to a race of garden gnomes

There is a "beating your swords into plowshares" joke here and I just can't find it.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I kinda like the baked Lay's. Lighter in taste, but still crunchy and saltoriffic.

I don't dislike them, but they're not the same thing at all.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I like Baked Lays too. They assuage my guilt. But you shouldn't have them forced on you if you don't want them.

Yes, they certainly shouldn't be the default- they should be an option and specifically requested.

Are baked chips gross?

yes. Some people like them, and they're actually not bad as a vehicle for a tasty dip, but they should be a choice, not the chips in the sandwiches.
