    Snickers being renamed Marathon

    Gives me the chance to reuse an old joke.

    I once entered a Marathon. Took ages to get the peanuts out of my bell end.

    It's limited edition only for a few months in Morrison's. Snickers will be back. Gullible people will buy the Marathon and will be delighted.

    Snickers or Marathon makes no difference to me - never liked either of them.

    It’s mad how many people are so obsessed with nostalgia. They whitewash the past as some utopia in their head and then are easily sold a load of shit.

    I think most of us look back at our younger days and claim they were the best times. There are reasons for this in that your teenage years (in particular) are the most intertwined in our memories as our brains undergo an incredible rate of development as we are most socially active. Think of how most people still listen to the music they were brought up with and discovered when they were young.

    The more rational among us know that things are no better or worse in one era or another, they're just different.

    So people think this is Britain shaking off the shackles of other countries and striking out on its own, when really it's a scheme devised to give an American multinational company more sales in the UK market.
