Yer Yellah

One of the dumbest laws in the history of dumb-ass laws is about to be changed. Margarine will finally be allowed to be yellow in Quebec. It has always been sickly white. This was because of pressure for the All-Powerful Butter Lobby, which didn’t want margarine to compete with the yellowy goodness of butter.

Sadly, this law comes 3 years too late, as this dumb-ass law used to always send my dear departed mother on a major rant against the government. She loved to complain about the ridiculous white-margarine law. Really, you have no idea how she loved to complain about it. I’ll be tempted to stop by the cemetery with a container of the new, improved yellow margarine, open the lid and say: Look! Finally! You can Rest in Peace!

Who would’ve thunk the day would come when Big Butter gave in to pressure. I thought you could never mess with Big Butter.

Big Butter would be a great name for a Hong Kong triad chief. mmm butter.
