I was thinking that the Allen's character was killed before that of Charlie with the change that happened to it in the last years of the Two And A Half Men Show. However, looking at the earlier episodes I started to recognize what seems to be an obvious pulling struggle for that character between the shallow superficially opportunist side and the serious less lucky but dependable one of that character, but, I, the veiwer, had consolidated the two into one. The stretch is big enough to make one feels bad for the actor who is supposed to convert actions into a character the totality of which is as hard to be mentally visualized as this one.

Continuing from the preceding post

Compared to what I remember from where I came from, the level of varieties of fruit offered in the grocery markets here does not seem to fit the average level of living in this country. You can make a flag  with a picture of an eggplant crossed over and it could be easily seen to uniquely represent this country to somebody who came from the outside and lived here. But at least eggplants depend on  how they are cooked. On the other hand, fruit are directly ready for eating. When was the last time you saw a grocery market selling figs, for example? And smaller size fruit are apparently forbidden things to begin with. Even with the big size fruit, how often you see pomegranates, for example? 

I have already thought about the issue with eggplants being a manifestation of that thing which looks like identity establishment need or desire I talked about before. Although abstaining from eggplants may not be as far as you may think from as if you traveled to some place and found that people do not eat eggs, for example, there, the issue with fruit, because they are directly consumable, seems to suggest clearer relation to that identity establishment thing .

No wonder many here do not like fruit much. The level of variety (or the lack of it) in the grocery markets here is depressing . It is as if those "super markets" just want to offer what count as fruit in order to fulfill an obligatory contract.
