Are Podcasts the death of potato chips?
Posted on:: September 13th, 2005
The Berkman Center has a new rule for lunchtime sessions that are being podcast: No potato chips will be served.
Apparently, last year the sounds of bags opening and chips crunching drowned out the conversation.
What’s next? No slurpy soda drinking? No rustling from corduroy-shod thighs?
…to say nothing of the chat-chat-chattering of laptop keyboards from bloggers in attendance!
Banning junk food… Then maybe laptops… I’m starting to re-think your invite now!! (j/k)
I think people that eat noisy food, or open noisy packages while people are trying to talk/listen are rude. Eat quieter foods wrapped in some kind of soft wrap that doesn’t crinkle — is that too difficult?
Am I the only one to find the phrase “rustling from corduroy-shod thighs” strangely exciting?
