  It warms my heart that Chiyo-chichi is recognized when this comic is posted.
  
  i still sing chiyo's tsukurimashou song to myself while working on stuff
  
  edit: unrelated but this song also lives rent free in my head
- OHMYGAHH
- FINE SANK YOU
  
  I WISH I WERE A BIRD
Why is the popcorn man Osaka's dad?
- You mean Chios dad?
  
  Shit, you're right. It's been too long.
"Salty it is"
"them"?
- Do you refer to a bag of popcorn as one singular popped corn?
  
  I refer to a bag of popcorn as a bag of popcorn
  
  You yourself just referred to it as a "bag"
  
  It's a singular mass noun like sand. Do you say "popcorns"?
  
  Yes, actually. I refer to it as "popcorn" just like you did just now.
  
  A serving is often treated as singular a unit in English. Popcorn, rice, candy, etc. "I ate all of it," not "I ate all of them." Only when referring to pieces of popcorn does it become them.
- Context tells us they bought two or more.
  
  Could be one cob of corn with many popped kernels, you can't prove it's not...
  
  In English popcorn is pronouned as a non living item: it
  
  How so?
I can only hear it in norio wakamoto's voice

edit: I'm happy to see I'm not the only one

Where do they offer sweet popcorn when it’s popped fresh like that?
- I'm not sure I understand. You never had freshly made sweet popcorn, only salty?
  
  Correct.
- Man Why doesn't like AMC have different kinds of popcorn
  
  I feel that would be so popular
  
  This is an excellent question. There are big tins with a variety of popcorn. Why don't theaters do this?
- You really need to experience homemade kettle corn. It's a bit of a process, and way more work than just popping a bag in the microwave, but it's absolutely delicious.
  
  But it looks like they are at a movie theater. That was my point.
  
  Where else do you walk up to a counter with a giant machine popping pop corn and they ask you “sweet or salty?” Where do you go where that happens?
Man, I don't know how but somehow the box of microwave popcorn I bought recently is defective. I put it in for double the time it says to and it still doesn't pop most of the kernels and the popcorn it does manage to pop is like... Stale? I don't even know how to describe it. It's cruncier and firmer than it should be and is almost totally lacking in butter flavor despite being the "extra theatre butter" style.

How the fuck does popcorn go bad before it's ever even been popped? 🤨 Anyway, what I have is definitely "ugly popcorn."
- It went bad because it somehow dried out (maybe the seal was defective). Popcorn pops by heating the water inside the kernel to the point it bursts open. If you have old popcorn, you can soak the kernels for 10 to 60 min, pat dry, and then heat.
  
  I hope your future popcorn is prettier. Or that you enjoy pity popcorn.
