Here is a list of things that become terrible after thirty minutes:
- Cereal, because it becomes soggy.
- Nachos, because they become cold.
- History Channel documentaries, because they delve into pure nonsense.
- Philosophy books, because the words become bigger and less understandable.
- Calgary Flames hockey, because they forgot the finer points of the sport and become puke on ice.
The Flames have just had three games in a row where they turned manageable games into complete disasters. This is in part due to their inability to play regular hockey past the halfway point.
