Chewables...really?

This summer I learned something. Now i know that first impressions are important, but what I didn't realize is that after being away from Cook for so long the people here could re-learn their first impressions of me. The gorcery store in Cook is pretty much the only place I go. There really isn't anywhere else in Cook worth going for me. I don't drink, I don't need a small engine repaired, and I don't need to rent any VHS tapes. So I'm guessing that most people's new impressions of me are that I eat a lot of food...which is true. Today however was a bit embarrassing. Every once in a while I"ll meet someone at the grocery store that I haven't seen since returning to the great north. Today I met an old classmate that I haven't seen since high school. We did the usual small talk which I find awkward and annoying. They gave me the whole, "you look so good" talk, and I gave them the "you look the same but older" talk. Anyway as we parted I noticed them glancing into my shopping basket. I didn't think much of it at the time, but after walking down a different isle I looked in my basket to find, "High fiber cereal, raisins, bananas, and Gas-X Chewables...My dad had called me on my way to town to download files and informed me that he need the Gas-X Chewables...Mostly because he's retarded and only eats things they serve at the South Switch. Anyway to that person I'm guessing my new first impression is that I've lost a lot of weight, and that I'm now very gassy from all the fiber I eat.
