    Since nobody seems to have read the article:

    Following the unusual birth, Krispy Kreme has offered Dallas, and, more pertinently, his family free doughnuts for a year and will throw Dallas a birthday party every year until he’s an adult.

    Put those donuts in a blender, pop the results in a bottle, and the baby will have a full belly. And probably diabetes by the age of 1. But I get the feeling that’s not too uncommon in Alabama.

    What does the FDA consider a year supply when it comes to doughnuts? Or similar group.

    I’m thinking if we wanted to be scientific and we’re stocking up a bunker, and wanted to make sure our doughnut supply was appropriate for Alabama standards.

    But…for the next year that number of consumed donuts should be 0.

    Wow. I remember when I was a kid, and the NES came out, and I was amazed. Then the SNES came out, and everything improved. Then the N64 came out and my jaw hit the floor.

    I said “Wow! Can you IMAGINE what life will be like when I’m old???”

    Well. Old me checking in. The future is dumb. I hate it. Please take me back to the late 80s right now.

      If you want it to feel like early Nintendo again, the place to look is VR now. Over the last 10 years, it has been an exciting growth pace to watch. And co-incidentally, some of my favorite stuff to do in VR is play Nintendo games in 3D.
