I’m 100% confident that many of you out there have poured the final pieces out of your bag of favorite chips directly into your mouth. So, companies shouldn’t waste any of that “dust” in their factories.

    I thought this was computer chips at first, but I still support it.

    I’m pretty sure that cookie companies do this with cookies and cream ice cream.

        Buy 2 cartons on vanilla ice cream. Eat 1. Now scoop half of the second one into the empty 1st carton so you have 2 half cartons.

        Now go eat a family size bag of dorritos. What? You’re trying to tell me you’re not sitting there in your greasy sweatpants that haven’t been washed in 2 weeks, after having JUST eaten an entire carton of ice cream BY YOURSELF, and you’re going to say that the family size dorritos is too much for you? Pssshhhh!!! Stop lying. You’re not fooling anybody about your dietary habits. Everybody knows.

        So, now that you’ve eaten the whole bag of dorritos, you should have a pretty decent size amount of small bits that are too small to be called chips. And a thick layer of dust. Now, put the mostly empty bag on the table, and just start punching it like life has punched your hopes and dreams in life. You thought you were going to grow up and be a big important business guy who carried a briefcase, and shoots a gun in business meetings because someone brought the wrong kind of coffee. Instead you work at starbucks and get yelled at by the guy who’s about to be shot for bringing the wrong kind of coffee. You intentionally made it wrong so you knew he’d get shot. ORDER FOR BRETT!!! Brett’s going to die doing what he loves. Getting shot.

        Now all those bits should also be dust, so you should have a fair bit amount of dust. Don’t snort it! It’s not cocaine! Instead, go snort a line of cocaine, because cocaine IS cocaine, and you have 15 strippers in your living room and a bag full of cocaine just ready to THIS IS THE FEDS!!!

        BOOM! FRONT DOOR IS BREACHED!

        HANDS ON THE GROUND!!! GET DOWN! GET DOWN!!!

        funky music plays, all the feds dance in a dance party

        Pants on the ground, pants on the ground! Lookin’ like a fool with your pants on the ground! Gold in your mouth! Hat turned sideways, pants hit the ground, call yourself a cool cat! Pick em up!

        …what were we talking about again?

        Wha…no! You don’t EAT them. You sell them you linux youtubers who say that they can’t run linux on these old broken microchips. And they pull out their soddering gun, and say “BITCH I WILL END YOU!!!”

        Actually they’re not that aggressive. They probably say something they think sounds cool and threatening, but is more comic book cool than real life cool.

        “With his trusty soddering gun in hand, linux man uses a vast knowledge of inner workings of electronics to repair any electronic no matter how demanding, in a never ending quest to prove that micro linux can run on ANYTHING!!!”

        and then the delivery guy is like “Yeah, that’s great. Sign here for your package, dork.”

      Me too! I was remembering the Intel incident when they discovered processors didn’t calculate math correctly and turned a batch into keychains. I still have mine somewhere …
