How do you consume popcorn?

• Handfuls @ the theater, basically all consumed by the time the feature is only five minutes old.
• You peck at your bag at the theater, rationing the stuff to last as long as you can
• By the time the opening credits have started at the theater, you're already thinking of going back for more
• You dislike popcorn or can't eat it for dietary reasons
• You dabble with it a little at home
• You have been referred to as a professional popcorn eater, or a farm animal
  

A weird topic I know, but I usually power through the stuff at the theater trying to maintain that popcorn taste in my mouth in an uninterrupted fashion. It's almost embarrassing, but what the hell. I do the handfuls thing, and it's gone early in the movie.

Normally my gums and tongue string a little from all of that overly-iodine tasting mineral sprinkled all over it... with a mild drenching in the liquid quasi-butter concoction.

Anyway, I had a good coding session today and came home to have some popcorn and noticed I had a nice perimeter of kernels spread around me in a almost even pattern.

I lost track of what I was doing and had to wash my hands before I laid them on this laptop keyboard. A black Macbook shows smudges pretty easily ;)

Happy Thursday evening. Celebrate the code you wrote today, the checkins you made, the code reviews you helped with, or the stuff you designed and played with.
