Walk from the cupboard, to the refrigerator, to the silverware drawer. Now who has THAT kind of abundant time available to them?!

Ahh, but it's not the time: it's that they'd have to put down their smartphones. And studies have shown that a millennial deprived of a smart phone for more than 11 seconds is liable to fatal cerebral fibrillation: their brains have become atrophied through lack of use.

When I was a kid, we thought it was _the_ neatest thing that Kelloggs and Post (and General Mills?) offered six-packs of miniature single-serving cereals, all different types in one pack. It was a real treat when our parents brought home one of those packs.

You had to lay the little box down flat, tear open the top on the dotted line, cut open the waxed paper bag inside with a pair of scissors, and pour in the milk. It was great. Those little boxes were so special. The “single serve” boxes were also available at some coffee shops. Do they still have them? I saw a mini-cereal box display at the coffee shop at the old (demolished in 2010) Transbay Terminal in San Francisco.
