My name is Marvo.  It&#8217;s nice to meet you&#8230;um, what does your name tag say?<\/p>\n<p>Wow.  That&#8217;s a really long name you have there, Hamburger Helper Cheesy Lasagna Microwave Singles.    That&#8217;s an unusual name.  N-n-no, I&#8217;m not saying there&#8217;s anything wrong with your name, I just think it&#8217;s really cool that you have such a long name.  Anyway, it&#8217;s really nice to meet you Hamburger Helper Cheesy Lasagna Microwave Singles.  So have you ever done this <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Speed_dating\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">speed dating<\/a> thing before?<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, I&#8217;m new to it too.  My friends said I should give it a try since I don&#8217;t get out of the house much and all I do is write, sleep, and download internet porn.  Oh wait, maybe I shouldn&#8217;t have mentioned I download internet porn&#8230;unless you do it too?<\/p>\n<p>You don&#8217;t?  Well you should try it someday.  If you do try, remember to lock your bedroom door and close your window shades.  Anyway, you know what I do during my free time, so what do you do for fun?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/images\/hhmicrowavesingles2_lg.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"float:left;padding-right:10px;border:none;\" src=\"\/images\/hhmicrowavesingles2_sm.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Oh, you like food?  I&#8217;m surprised by that because you&#8217;re so dainty.  No, really.  You come in a very small package.  You have 210 calories and 4.5 grams of fat?  That&#8217;s not much at all.  You also have 1.5 grams of trans fat?  Oh&#8230;um.  W-w-well, I like my dates to have a &#8220;little junk in the trunk.&#8221;  N-n-no, I&#8217;m not saying you have a big ass.  I just don&#8217;t like women who are anorexic and you&#8217;re not.  I-I-I&#8217;m not saying you&#8217;re fat.  You&#8217;re curvy.  No, again, I&#8217;m not saying you&#8217;re fat.  You have a nice shape.  No, not like a cow.  I think you&#8217;re skinny&#8230;and pretty.  Really pretty.  You&#8217;re welcome.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, so are you spiritual or religious?  You&#8217;re into Satanism.  Wait&#8230;the Satanism with or without the chicken sacrifices?  With?  Um, I can dig that.  Oh wait, chicken sacrifices with or without drinking the chicken&#8217;s blood?  Without?  Phew.  Thank goodness you&#8217;re not one of those chicken blood drinking Satanists, because those people are crazy.<\/p>\n<p>You do what with the blood?  Use the blood to draw pentagrams all over your body and dance naked around the sacrificed chicken to gain immortality and increase your vision?   Um, as long as you don&#8217;t drink the blood, I don&#8217;t find that weird.<\/p>\n<p>So how would you best describe yourself?<\/p>\n<p>Salty, quick, and easy?  <\/p>\n<p>You seem like such a nice person that I couldn&#8217;t imagine you getting a little salty.  But then again, with 580 milligrams of sodium I could possibly see it happening.  N-n-no, I&#8217;m not calling you short tempered.  N-n-no, I don&#8217;t want to take this outside.  No, I do not want my ass kicked.<\/p>\n<p>So you say you&#8217;re also quick and easy.  To be honest, I kind of like that.  So it takes only three steps to make you hot and ready to eat.  How long does it take you to get hot?  Four to six minutes is pretty quick.  <\/p>\n<p>But I&#8217;ll never find out how easy you are?  Why won&#8217;t you let me?  I&#8217;m a decent looking guy.  I&#8217;m not sexiest man in my apartment and I live alone, but I think I&#8217;m above average.  I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;m a D+.  In the eight minutes we&#8217;re spending together, I don&#8217;t think we can truly learn enough about each other, but if you spend more time with me you would find out that I&#8217;m a great guy.  I have not been staring at your breasts all this time.  I just think the pendant you&#8217;re wearing is really nice.<\/p>\n<p>Time&#8217;s up.<\/p>\n<p>Well it was nice meeting you, Hamburger Helper Cheesy Lasagna Microwave Singles.  I thought you were kind of tasty, although I&#8217;m not too sure about your small balls of freeze dried ground beef, but they did add some nice flavor.  No, I&#8217;m not calling you a man with small balls.  Your noodles were tender and your cheesy sauce was decent, but I didn&#8217;t expect much since I just mixed cheese powder with water.  <\/p>\n<p>Overall, I think things between us went well and I hope we meet again.  <\/p>\n<p>Oh, you didn&#8217;t think so?  Um, I guess it was nice meeting you then.<\/p>\n<p>I should do something about my breath?  Oh, thanks.<\/p>\n<p><b>Item:<\/b>  Hamburger Helper Cheesy Lasagna Microwave Singles<br \/>\n<b>Price:<\/b>  $3.00 (on sale)<br \/>\n<b>Purchased at:<\/b>  Safeway<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b>  6 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Pros:<\/b>  Good, but not great.
