Abusing freebies
A friend of mine recently attended a 'Champaign Lunch', where he was compelled drink as much fizzy stuff as he could between the first and last courses. In an ideal world we'd ask restaurant staff to tell us stories about fatties stuffing themselves at All You Can Eat places, but we recognise that our members don't all work in the catering trade, so for the rest of you - tell us something about abusing freebies. BTW: Bee puns = you fail.

Went to a little hole-in-the-wall bar called "Rocket to Venus" in Baltimore
nice place, low key, great food, good beer selection.
Went to the bar and saw on the counter that about every third seat there were small cups full of little white/green pellets. "Mints!" thinks I. Like a child dipping his hand in a bowl of gumdrops, I swipe about 10 or so and stuff them into my mouth.
No, no. They were wasabi pellets.
My friends stare at me and I try my hardest to just pretend they were mints, but they keep staring, until finally it becomes too much and I forcibly spit them onto the floor beneath my stool, making a right mess.
Most likely a regular occurrence, the bartender just gave me a wet rag and told me to clean it up.
"Plenty of people make the same mistake with just one, but I've never seen such well-punished greed" he mused.

Wasabi peas will rocket everyone to Venus
Bahaha! I've actually been there, and the night I was there, some folks at the bar had a contest to see who could guess how many were in one of the carafes... my friends and I were busy betting each other dollars to chew and swallow an entire mouthful. No problem for me; I love the little fuckers. Wasabi peas ftw!

oh why
I love wasabi snacks too... but why would you put ten *mints* in your mouth? They're not even snacks, more Cillit-Bang for your mouth.
