But...food?

Because I'm full of fail, I'm not all caught up with HIMYM yet. I did, however, watch 4.02 yesterday, and enjoyed it very much (MARSHALL!!!! But do get a haircut, dear. And take Chase along with you, while you're at it.)
One of the many, many reasons why I love the show so much is how it gets the dynamic between a group of very close friends so perfectly right. For instance, it is a fact that if more than two people go out to eat, the one who's hungriest will always be served last (call that Rule #42 of Life, the Universe, and Everything, if you will), irrespective of their order. It's a fact that if a group of friends try to figure out what they'll have for dinner (and where) while hanging out at their usual hangout place, they *will* argue pointlessly for an hour and then order the same thing that they eat everyday at the very same place. And, of course, it's also a fact that having a few friends around while you are fuzzy-brained from hunger is *always* a good idea, because they're the ones who'll stop you from rummaging dustbins and eating an ATM slip ('But...food,' was the best line in this episode, period).
I don't need to be reminded of myself to enjoy a show, but it certainly helps.
