This happens to me a couple times a year. And like a dummy I always end up getting the thing, knowing I wont like it. It is so stupid. I have no idea why I do it. I usually hold out for a week or two while just randomly thinking about the item. And then it gets built up into this thing like, yeah I have to do this now. Maybe it will be different this time. And it always ends in disappointment.
Today was nasty ass pop tarts. Loved 'em as a kid. Hate them now. Haven't tried on in like 6 years. Everyone's been talking about the movie about them. And how they loved them as kids. But hate them now as adults, etc. And over the last two weeks I keep thinking about them. Every time I go to the store. Late at night, like I should go get pop tarts to snack on. Well today I caved and bought a box. Ate half of one and threw the entire box in the garbage. They are so gross. I can't believe people eat these for breakfast, first thing in the morning.
And this isn't just because of the movie. This happens with things more often without any outside influence. Like the last one was Sunny-D, Sunny Delight. I randomly saw it at a store like 4-5 months back. And was like, hell yeah. I loved that crap as a kid. And then ended up thinking about it for weeks before buying a bottle. Knowing full well I no longer liked it. And almost throwing up when tasting it again. Which I knew would happen. Because that crap is terrible. Yet I did it anyways. I think I might be insane. Because I keep doing the same thing over and over expecting different results. Like, maybe this isn't absolutely terrible now. Nope, it still is.
