I know!! It is driving me nuts! Here I am trying to get over that experience and everyone just keeps bringing it back up! I’m charging the SDMB with my therapy bills!

I know this is SLIGHTLY off the subject but this has always bothered me.

I often eat pop-tarts which are packaged 8 to a box and the bagged in 2’s. Most of my friends ask for a pop tart and when I hand the one pastry form the bag of two, they get indignant and think that I am being greedy. I on the other hand consider a pop tart to be a single pastry. The bag therefore consists of 2 pop tarts. Does anyone agree with this? None of my friends seem to. Of course by saying friend(s) I mean more than one. If they are all hanging out with each other do they suddenly become "my friend’?
