My Encounter With Mandeep

It has been a long, long time since I've written a real blog. Since the pandemic days, in fact. But this warrants it. So there I was, going about my usual afternoon busywork at the AVN compound, when I hear a call from downstairs: "Hello?" I thought I heard my co-worker moving in that direction to see what was up, but then a few minutes later: "Hello?" Looked like it was gonna be up to me. So down the stairs I plodded, and immediately found myself face-to-face with a short, pudgy, balding man seemingly of Indian descent, whom I will call "Mandeep" for the purposes of discretion.  "Hello sir, is there somebody I can talk to here? This is the AVN?" he asked me. "Well yes, what do you need?" I asked. "I have traveled so far, I just need to talk with somebody who can help me," he implored. "OK ... what's happening? What's your question?" I persisted. "I want to find out how can I get into the industry?...

These Chips Are Kinda Bullshit

I tried out these Lay's Hot Sauce chips the other day because they had a picture of Frank's Red Hot on the bag, and Frank's Red Hot is awesome, so this seemed like a pretty stellar chip concept. I don't know if it's one of those yearly Lay's novelty flavors or an actual new flavor, but I was pretty jazzed about it.

Well, I was underwhelmed. I love hot sauce, and I love chips, but this combo was not working for me. It came off a little like spicy ketchup chips, and there is just nothing good about that notion whatsoever. I've had worse chips, but these were just lackluster. If you want hot chips, pass on these and go for the Flamin' Hot or the Chile Limón ones. Much more satisfying.

Goddamit I'm hungry, I'm getting dinner now, bye.
