Why do the fries in the bottom of the bag taste so much better than the fries in the french fry box? Is it some sort of mysterious "spud sorcery?"
Also, I realize that with all the hubbub in baseball right now it will be tough to avoid the word, but I'm getting tired of the overuse of the phrase "on steroids."
"Disneyland is like Six Flags on steroids!"
"The new Ford Mustang is like the 1980 Ford Fiesta on steroids!"
"My new Harley is like a moped on steroids!"
Okay, a couple of those examples are bad. Anyway...

It's a long-standing fact that the use of "on steroids" is a crutch of the hack stand-up comic. With what you've got there, you could now open for Larry the Cable Guy.
Couldn't agree more about the overuse of that phrase - along with many others. As to the fries, I say it's the salt-flow. Salt migrates to the bottom (as does the grease) and sticks on those last few half-broken crunchy mofos... the ones that can break your teeth if you're not careful. I think we like those better because of the challenge. Guess you could say those bottom dwellers are like top fries on steroids. Ugh (stepping back now to slap my own self)
