Lucky my @$$

So I'm enjoying a bowl of lucky charms for the first time in years when I glance down to see an unfamiliar shaped marshmallow staring back up at me. "What is that odd yellow shaped thing?" I think to myself. Then I start moving the cereal around with my spoon and notice that the marshmallows are all jacked up now! They made all these wacky lame shapes and called them lucky. Like some red one that resembles a hot air balloon and a pink heart, what the hell! So I look at the box and that odd yellow shape is apparently an hour glass! So am I to believe that a hot air balloon, a heart and an hour glass are lucky? But it gets worse, where O' where is the horse shoe? Now I'm feeling really irritated because dumb marketing always pisses me right off. Until I see something purple being suffocated by a big fat hourglass. Could it be?! Yes! It's the horseshoe! They just changed the color. Phewf...I can carry on with my night. I didn't really enjoy the cereal after that because it is another reminder that there is only two things in life that are certain, nothing stays the same and advertisers are a bunch of dumb*@&#$. And thats how you philosophize over cereal.
