Neverending Chips Theory

Have you ever munched on a bag of chips, popcorn, peanuts, etc and wondered to yourself, 'wow, there's alot of chips in this bag' and almost immediately after that, you are down to your last chip? It seems like more than just a coincidence that this happens almost all the time.

And that is my theory. All bags of chips (or whatever; I use chips as a generic term) are bottomless until the very thought of it being bottomless or neverending enters your head. Our minds then create the remaining quantity in the bag, and

It also works with drinks too, and even non-food items such as paperclips, etc.

These are the postulates for my theory (memories of Ms Bunagan back in junior year high school come flooding back):
1. The items have have to be a bag or other container in which the contents cannot be seen from the outside
2. It cannot have been packed by yourself or someone you know, nor should you have seen it being packed.
3. The quantity is not specifically stated; it is only shown in terms of weight, etc. and not a specific number.
4. The moment you remotely even think of how much is in the bag/container, no matter how much you think is inside, is the moment that the items inside become finite and the container is no longer 'bottomless'.
5. It only takes one thought, regardless of person. So if two people are munching a bag of chips, if one person thinks about the quantity of chips, that bag no longer is bottomless even if the other person doesn't think about it.

It sounds farfetched of course. But I think, in some physic-warping way, it is possible. The mind is very powerful, after all.

Well, now that I have told you my theory, it will be impossible for you to disprove it. For the moment you think about this entry, the bottomless bag of chips you hold in your hand will be no more, and you will be grasping the last few pieces of chip. Bwahahahah!

But on the other hand, this is also why I will never achieve that legendary bottomless bag...

Life is Infinitely Beautiful!
