Solipsism

I'm pretty sure I never heard or read the word "Manischewitz" before this year, when I have heard or read it 999,999 times. I think that it actually didn't exist at all before this year, and it's been retroactively added to history but they forgot to patch my memory correctly. Who's been dinking with my Matrix

Oh, now, really, they do make very good...um, hold on, it'll come to me. Not the matzah, not the jelly, not the horseradish...um...marketing! They make very good marketing.

yeah, they manage to convince my mother -- who the rest of the year would use prepackaged food only at gunpoint, and who is perfectly capable of making tasty dinners out of meat and vegetables and potatoes, and frosting out of butter and sugar -- that she should buy their prepackaged and incredibly crappy mixes and frostings. Why? Manischewitz only knows.

(interesting factoid: "Manischewitz" is NaturallySpeaking's dictionary, but I had to say it and correct it once before it knew how to pronounce it.)
