Today would have been a bad day for licking flagpoles

It all started when I apparently forgot my lunch when I left for work. I have eaten badly enough today to kill an army of diabetics.

And that got me thinking, what if someone was facing an army of diabetics and decided to defeat them by shooting them with bullets made of sugar? Sugar is like Raid bugspray to diabetics, after all, killing them on contact. But the diabetics would then win with few casualties. You see, the firing of the guns would generate intense heat that would melt the sugar bullets. Globs of crystal sugar would then be left in the barrels causing the guns to jam and possible explode. The triumphant diabetic army would then march off to Void Circle Pharmacy to celebrate with purchases of chocolate bars and cigarettes. Meanwhile, the enemy army would shake their heads and ask what went wrong. And the guy who suggested killing the diabetics with sugar bullets would probably be strung up because regular old bullets would have killed the diabetics the same as they kill anyone else.

All because I forgot to take my lunch with me.
