Apparently people don’t have common sense. First there was the grilled cheese sandwich that sold on eBay for $28,000. Now there’s a grain of cereal that looks (supposedly) like ET from the movie of early 1980s Spielbergian fame.

Now, the first can be explained by a growing sociological obsession with the comforting mother-figure of Mary the virgin bearer of Jesus Christ which will soon (less than a hundred years) develop into full-blown Mary-worship and a frenzy of feminist doctrines. That part’s easy.

But this grain of cereal thing? That really gets me. Why would anyone pay $800 (that’s not a typo) for a GRAIN of CEREAL? I mean, I really like Blade Runner but if I found a honey bun with Rutger Hauer’s likeness in the icing I’d still eat it. Good grief. Any thoughts on what motivated this?
