Baseball and sunflower seeds. A natural pairing. Baseball, a leisurely sport. Sunflower seeds, a food best enjoyed, while taking your time.
So there I was enjoying my son’s baseball game. Enjoying a bag of flavored sunflower seeds. One after another, I would shell the little seeds, eat the contents, and discard the remains. One after another, with only two simple rules. Cast off the shells (1) where they will not bother anyone else and (2) discard them in such a fashion as to not look like a pig.
This is when I glanced down at my feet and realized I had failed. Failed baseball. Failed sunflower seeds. Failed to discard my sunflower seed shells properly. Failed all, with a sunflower seed perched on my sandal. Fail.
Ah, the “Sunflower-Seed-Shell-Landing-on-the-Sandal Fail.” #ClassicFail
