Hahaha! This is hilarious. Ten steps to eating a grape might be my favorite of the bunch - no pun intended.

It’s never two soon to read funny stuff. However, I just eight a fistful of grapes...might have been too early in the morning for that.

Oh no...the numbers...we’re on a slippery slope, Doom. 🤣
