In case you didn't know…today is National Chip and Dip Day. Uhhhhh right. Who decides this crap?! I don't know if I'm more bothered by the fact that there is a day dedicated to chips and dip…or the fact that some asshole out there gets paid to come up with nonsensical holidays to support the marketing efforts of the various companies that supply his paycheck. ARGH. And prior to him there was the guy from the 50's who came up with a serving set that holds both chips AND dip and called it a “Chip & Dip”. What a genius! He probably became a millionaire. My mom still has hers. It's in the shape of a f&*%ing watermelon. Go figure.
Fine so I'm a LITTLE short-fused today. I have my reasons. That said, I actually do like chips and dip. It used to be one of my favorite after-school snacks: Wise onion dip and Lays potato chips.
