Cereal Faux Pas

There are two kinds of people in this world. Those that open the cereal box flap toward them, and those that open the cereal box flap away from them. And apparently, I’m the only one that does it correctly.

This may not seem like a big deal, but it affects which end the bag is opened (unless you’re one of THOSE people that open the bag all the way across), which affects whether the box is poured from the left or the right.

I’m not trying to harp on this, but there’s just a way that this whole process feels more natural! And the way everyone else does it is not it! So get it together, people, especially if you’re going to open my cereal box. Because after you leave, I’m stuck with a backwards box of cereal. I mean sure I guess I could easily pull the bag out and turn it around, but it’s the principle of the thing!

UPDATE: Apparently, there’s actually three kinds of people. If you’re like my brother, then you open the box from the bottom, so you can get the prize before anyone else. That’s just wrong, but it also explains why none of my cereal boxes had prizes in them!
