Things That Are Overrated: Scones
Dry. Brittle. Crumbly. Four bucks at Starbucks. People try to put fruit in them but the fruit just ends up tasting like those red and green things that people put in fruit cake. Which would be another thing that is overrated, if anyone rated it highly to begin with.
Scones remind me of bland, tasteless, lifeless diet food but scones are worse. They taste bad, make you incredibly thirsty and they are fattening. Sound like a game plan? I’ll meet you at Fourbucks for a cup of coffee and an orange/cranberry scone OR I can drop an anvil on your big toe and take $8.45 out of your wallet. What do you choose? Hey, if you take the anvil route, you’ll be $8.45 ahead of the game, thinner and even with a swollen big toe you’ll be able to cover enough ground at short-stop to be compared to Cal Ripken.
