That's a retarded argument that could be inaccurately applied to almost anything.

Since I don't have anything better to do with my life, I decided to start a facebook group calling for the return of the Cadbury Shortcake Biscuit Bar. This plan is horribly flawed in so much as I'm the only person in the world who gave a toss about it (hence its cancellation), but meh, it was either that or have a wank. Man, I wish I'd had that wank.

Ooh - I've started eating Wispas again! After feigning indifference for a while, I found 'em three for a pound at Co-Op and they're the perfect fuel for writing. However, I'm not used to all this chocolatte and I fear that spottiness may ensue.

They were very good, I really liked them. I don't tend to eat much chocolate nowadays, but I would make an exception for one of those.

fuse! wow there's one I forgot. Woe betide the purchaser if said fuse lay in a chilled cabinet prior to consumption for said chocolate lover would surely break their teeth on the granite hard contents therein.

edit: sorry about this but.... 500 posts! I need to get some work done ?:|

I ate some Skittles 'confused' today, a new version of skittles.

Actually, it's just a load of fucking bollocks. All it is is the same as skittles except they've changed the flavours around so that they don't correspond to the expected colours. For some reason they think this 'wacky' new take on Skittles will somehow help them sell more.

The problem with this is of course that unless you eat them one by one, you'll never even notice.

Which I did not, and so indeed I did not.

I can't believe someone came up with this and then managed to get it to the point where its an actual product on the shelf. It can't last.

I saw some Jelly Belly beans in Idaho.

I can't remember what they were called, but the idea was that each colour of bean had two flavours, one nice, one rank.

For example, there was a yellow one that was either popcorn or rotten eggs.

So you'd never know whether you were going to get a nice flavour or one you'd have to spit out in disgust.

I didn't buy any.

Hang on, they've got a web site -

Yeah, the did some of those a while back, too. But those were colour-coded so you knew which flavour you were going to get before you put them in your mouth.

Thus of course pretty much wrecking the point.

Yup.

I had a box that my grandmother-in-law bought me. We threw quite a few of the beans away, but it was... interesting.

Uh...yes? Oh no, what have I done now??

Um...do you mean I won't be able to tell what the flavours are? Is that what you are getting at? Because this:

Fortunately, the beans come with a mystical guide to help you recognize the flavors.

Kinda made me think it might give me a reference as to what the flavours are? Or am I wrong?

EDIT: I am an immense dickhead-just simply immense, I have no idea how I have lived this long I really don't. For some reason my little brain thought there were nice flavours in there aswell (well...bacon is nice) and I thought I'd have to sift through them all-yes....go on...mock me....I would

Shit...

I shall be wearing a badge for DavPaz because he's not coming-as made by himself.

Didn't someone say it's open 'late' once you get in? I assume that they close when there are less people/do they have like a lock-in thing?
