Rampant consumerism in Manhattan: Personalized M&Ms.

The other day I texted my one friend who teaches Czech modern literature to see if she wanted to hang out, but she was visiting her mom in New Jersey, and was planning a trip in to Manhattan the next day.

The next evening, I texted to see what she had decided on doing and done in Manhattan, and it happened that she had wandered into the M&Ms store by chance and gotten personalized M&Ms.

I texted back and said that I had hoped she had gotten the "c with the hacek" i.e. -

č 

- or perhaps the "r with the hacek" i.e. -

ř

- but she didn't.

I then retrospectively encouraged her to ask to speak with a manager and express disappointment that their M&Ms weren't personalizable enough.
