cheap bastard

Call me frugal, thrifty, a cheapskate, miser, skinflint, scrooge*, niggard, coupon clipper, tightwad, pennypincher, whatever, but $2.70 for a 1 lb. container of mediocre brand cottage cheese is bonkers. Actually don't call me 'skinflint' cuz that sounds too much like 'skinflute'.
*The real Flintheart Glomgold would never allow himself to be called Scrooge (McDuck).

Brainstorm 2k6:
Remember those temperature-sensitive, color-changing t-shirts (Hypercolor™)?Why the hell doesn't Hasbro license a company to produce Transformer logoed t-shirts where the autobot/decepticon sign would change color? It'd be like walking around with your very own rub-off sign© on your chest. That's pure gold baby!

nothing wrong with being thrifty-- I still drive my clunky old station wagon....

Is it just me or is the sheer number of cottage cheese on the market...literally millions falling in between "pure shit" and "pure bliss"...kind of strange?

You don't see that kind of variety in mayo.

Worse yet, when you move to a new state or new part of the country, all the cottage cheeses change.

But is the cottage cheese nice, and could you actually get through a pound of the stuff before it goes off?

The last tub of cottage cheese my wife bought came wearing a wool sweater. The foil, apparently had a little gap in its seal. I haven't recovered since.

Oh... and 'niggard' has never been my favourite "cheapskate" synonym. I'd rather be called skinflute.

The hypercolor shirt was genius. Pure genius.
as for cottage cheese, I don't understand the people who have a serious curd size preference. Seriously? Does it really make a difference?

Now I have a fictional shirt to pine for. Damn you!!

I like cottage cheese and peaches ... but I agree that is a bit pricey for the stuff.

glomgold said...

boudica, you should definitely get that pirate porn shirt.

I will have to research further into this cottage cheese phenomenon.

I'll put aside my dislike of superlatives to say that the Hypercolor/Transformers shirt is probably the best idea for a shirt ever.
I truly loved my Hypercolor shirt...until someone put mine in the dryer and stayed neon pink for all eternity. Though on second thought, it may have been purple.

I love superlatives. They're the goddamned best!
