Important Question for the Day

Discuss.

Personally, I don't like my cereal dry, so I'd rather have too much than too little.

Cereal should be moist but not soggy. 3 parts Cheerios to 1 part milk, I say.

I like my cereal dry or with milk--but if I am having milk with it, I need sufficient milk! If I must choose between too much and too little, I will take too much. I can always give the excess to my cats who don't get milk often (because it gives them diarrhea) but who LOVE it.

The same applies to chocolate--better too much than not enough.

It's gotta be just right! But "just right" is probably more on the Too Little side of things - so I voted Too Little. I'm not a fan of too much milk...

Too little. Crunchy is better than soggy.

I like my surreal dark and dry
If she withdrew from exaltation, she would be forced to think- And every thought led to fear and contradictions; to dilemmas for which she was unprepared.

I like my surreal to have lots of melted clocks and deformed horses in it.

Cho,

melted clocks and deformed horses...all soaking in too much chocolate milk. Truly, you believe in "the best to you each mourning.."
Focus on where you are going and why.
Never lose awareness of how far down "down" is...but don't obsess about it.

Think of the ad campaign possibilities for crunchy melted clocks and chewy deformed horses! All marinated in lovely chocolate milk mulch.

It would certainly knock those cannibalistic cinnamon toast crunch creatures down a peg or two.

Aye, but I hesitate to speak too ill of creatures who start the day by eating each other.

Now, that really does embody "the best to you each morning.." :twisted:

The question is, how many drink the milk afterwards? I do, so give me too much.

At my house--three fat cats generally drink the left over milk--unless I drink it myself to spite them for scattering their litter everywhere...

Agree 100%. That's also why sugary cereals are the best - give me Frosted Flakes, Captain Crunch or Fruity Pebbles over nasty Cheerios any day.

Sugared cereals were verboten when I was growing up, and I think I was in my teens the first time I had one. Frosted wheats. I was on a camping trip, and there was no milk in sight, so we ate them like trail mix.

I can't remember the last time I bought any, but the concept of adding milk still seems weird. Crunchy, I say. Crunchy.
