Gimmes

Gimme may not be in Webster's, but it is most certainly a word- as in, gimme this, or gimme that. This is not to be confused with, iwanna- I wanna go to the zoo.

The gimmes are an affliction. Imagine becoming overwhelmed by the insatiable desire to own, say a new oven. In fact, you actually, truly NEED it as your old one died. So you begin the research process, whereby you findcwhats available in varying degrees of price, quality and functionality. Then it hits you-- the gimmes. You have an uncontrolable desire, nay, need which must be filled. You succomb to the disease, and your pockets become empty. This is, I believe, what happened to the US when the economy collapsed. We as a nation were overcome by this horrific disease. I prayvthey come up with a cure soon, lest I spend $3,000 on a new oven.
