    Almost out, picking up three more cartons tomorrow from my supplier of eggs from free range, grass fed, goat harassed happy hens.

    The cartons are usually whatever my supplier happen to have there and then. Pretty standard egg cartons as sold at the store.

    I usually use pairs as it's fastest to mentally intuit how many eggs remain that way.

      I always remove the eggs in the Fibonacci sequence first until I run out of indices, and then I remove them in order by index.

          A couple of goats share the same forest as the hens. And knowing goats, there's bound to be some harassment involved.

              I saw the ridiculous prices just after whatever bill that passed made them more expensive. Have the prices gotten worse or stayed the same?

                  I normally eat scrambled eggs for breakfast so I always grab two at a time. So next time I make breakfast I'll grab the next eggs from the right side.

                    Always eggs in the middle. Because when I pick it up I always want the center of the weight to be in the same place. If all the weight is to one side and I grab the opposite side I'm more likely to drop it. Yes this is how I live my life, by overanalyzing everything.

                    That's the same reason that I do the opposite - I take an equal number from each end, so the remaining eggs are centered in the carton, so I'm never surprised by a carton that's unbalanced in an unexpected direction.

                        I think we do the same thing. I meant I leave eggs in the middle I pull from the outside edges.

                          I remove eggs opposite each other (front right, rear left and so on) so that it remains level for weight and balance. My partner doesn’t subscribe to my logic and just sprays a machine gun of bullets around the carton, grabbing whatever like she’s blindfolded. It’s not a hill I wanna die on, so I don’t say anything.

                              No clue why, but I always work from the outside edges and work into the center.

                                        You at least have to keep it symetrical.

                                          Currently full, but I work my way in from the outside corners to the inside by the hinge so it is balanced when I pick it up one handed. It might be slightly lopsided because I always pull multiple eggs next to each other with one hand, but mostly centered.

                                          So it frequently looks something like this:
