Today's pet hate is the fun-size chocolate bar.
If I didn't know any better, I would assume a fun-size chocolate bar was enormous. Big enough to roll around on. To lounge on while reading a magazine. To host a dinner party on.
The implication is that a "fun-size" chocolate bar is far superior to a normal-size chocolate bar.
But we know that not to be true, don't we. Fun-size chocolate bars are the exact opposite of what they should be. What could possibly be fun about a smaller-than-normal-size chocolate bar?
The answer is, nothing.
They're more expensive by weight.
There is an expectation that you share them. With other people.
The chocolate itself is too small to break in half, so you can't empty all the calories out before you eat it.
They're bad for the environment with their dinky little individual wrappers. Which, by the way, are a bastard to open.
The bags they come in always tear right down to the bottom and they all fall out.
Fun-size schmun-size. Boycott them.
