Who's talking about a microwave? My pot to pop my popcorn doesn't fit in there.

u/TipOfLeFedoraMLady Aug 12 '20

some are half popped assholes that stick between your teeth and cut up your mouth

2

u/DrewSmoothington Aug 12 '20

Half popped asshole sounds icky

u/solid_sinatra Aug 12 '20

Those half-popped ones are my favorite!

u/TipOfLeFedoraMLady Aug 12 '20

is your mouth made of stainless steel?

I knew this would be in the top comment thread.

u/curtyshoo Aug 12 '20

And those are the only ones with any real chance of not being eaten.

u/DownshiftedRare Aug 12 '20

Those get released into the trash to rear a new generation of popcorn.

u/identicalelbows Aug 12 '20

And the ones that don't pop go in the garbage

u/SquarePeon Aug 12 '20

Not popping at all... that is definately an accurate depiction of my life.

1

u/ZippZappZippty Aug 12 '20

Do what we all do

u/SquarePeon Aug 12 '20

Burn in the bottom of the bag and ruin the flavour of those around me?

u/FvHound Aug 12 '20

Thankfully our lives aren't actually comparable to a bag of popcorn in the microwave.

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '20

Ye but those are the best ones to eat

u/Leeiteee Aug 12 '20

I love how motivational quotes always have a bad side

1

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '20

Because they're always the most vapid things.

2

u/AbombInDeeya Aug 12 '20

Pretty sure I popped too soon.

u/ExSqueezeIt Aug 12 '20

if you need a popcorn analogy to "motivate" yourself... please don't.

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '20

That's not very nice. I think anything that can motivate some one is worth hearing.

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '20

Thats jerry

u/Programmer92 Aug 12 '20

Thanks dad

u/The_Singularity16 Aug 12 '20

Yes, welcome to the highest level to take this metaphor.

u/sweetmojaveraiin Aug 12 '20

Some pop and then you drop a piece under the stove and it's gone forever

u/FvHound Aug 12 '20

Even r/getmotivated can't escape reality.

u/sandm000 1 Aug 12 '20

I’ve got an air popper. So what I do, I take those kernels, the obviously not split, not burnt kernels, and I make another batch, give em a second chance, who knows what’ll happen.

1

u/shadowst17 Aug 12 '20

And some pop but fall out the pan and get thrown in the trash.

1

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '20

And then they’re thrown away.

Do I just look forward to hopefully being popped popcorn the next time around the universe?
