Foul temptation or delightful treat?

― teeny (teeny), Tuesday, 14 October 2003 18:58 (twenty-one years ago)

Somebody I work with has some sort of crazy hookup with the Hershey people; they send him boxes and boxes of candy, ostensibly for promotional purposes. I stuff my face with it constantly, I'm sure I take more than my fair share from the communal candy-bowl so I only take candy when no one is looking.

― teeny (teeny), Tuesday, 14 October 2003 19:03 (twenty-one years ago)

I just ate seven small-sized candy bars.

― teeny (teeny), Tuesday, 14 October 2003 19:13 (twenty-one years ago)

This like everyday for me. The office secretary just brings in bags of chocolate all the time. I've been living off of fruit and chocolate for the past week!

"This *is* like" == sugar rush.

― Dale the Titled (cprek), Tuesday, 14 October 2003 19:17 (twenty-one years ago)

uh oh I think I have blount belly.

― teeny (teeny), Tuesday, 14 October 2003 19:20 (twenty-one years ago)

if he is getting candy for promotional purposes do you get experimental chocolate fun-sized bars?

― Dale the Titled (cprek), Tuesday, 14 October 2003 19:33 (twenty-one years ago)

no they are the standard classics: hershey & reese for the most part. He did give me one of those enormous five pound bars of chocolate once.

― teeny (teeny), Tuesday, 14 October 2003 19:41 (twenty-one years ago)

oh fuck yeah I still have a picture:

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 15 October 2003 10:06 (twenty-one years ago)

that's a normal size hershey bar! you really are "teeny"!

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Wednesday, 15 October 2003 13:11 (twenty-one years ago)

I have a sick passion for candy corn and candy-corn-related products (ie, those little pumpkins that are basically huge candy corn). I know they are just sugar and will make me feel gross, but I still must eat them.

― NA (Nick A.), Wednesday, 15 October 2003 13:14 (twenty-one years ago)

When I was a kid and would lose my teeth I would shove candy corns in the spaces and have candy corn teeth.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Wednesday, 15 October 2003 13:22 (twenty-one years ago)

So anyway somebody keeps stocking this jar out front with Hershey's dark chocolate, which is an entirely different beast. My breakfast today was 3 of those mufuckaz.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Wednesday, 15 October 2003 13:23 (twenty-one years ago)

i have two words for you all: Orange Kitkat

― stevem (blueski), Wednesday, 15 October 2003 13:25 (twenty-one years ago)

I feel ya, really I do.

― Girolamo Savonarola, Wednesday, 15 October 2003 13:26 (twenty-one years ago)

yesterday i had an inside out peanut butter cup. the peanut butter was on the outside. it was godlike.

― Chris V. (Chris V), Wednesday, 15 October 2003 13:46 (twenty-one years ago)

I totally ate a ton of candy yesterday and made myself sick. When I went home I had a beer for dinner and fell asleep on the couch.

― teeny (teeny), Wednesday, 15 October 2003 14:20 (twenty-one years ago)

Sounds like my idea of heaven!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Wednesday, 15 October 2003 14:25 (twenty-one years ago)

Damnit sometimes it creeps me out how much teeny's life seems like mine.

Okay so last time I posted The Bowl out front was almost down to 1/3 full and now it's back to stuffed-to-the-brim, and this time there are CRACKLESES and SNICKERSES in there oh my god.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Wednesday, 15 October 2003 14:31 (twenty-one years ago)

hey dude did you notice the timestamp on my post there? Dude.

― teeny (teeny), Wednesday, 15 October 2003 14:42 (twenty-one years ago)

ohno! the chocolate basket was pilfered while i was out of the office yesterday! IMPENDING SUGAR CRASH CATASTROPHY OHNO!

― Dale the Titled (cprek), Thursday, 16 October 2003 12:12 (twenty-one years ago)

I just ate 4 tiny mr. goodbars for breakfast.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 16 October 2003 12:21 (twenty-one years ago)

somebody ate all the reese cups out of the basket! only hershey bars are left!

― teeny (teeny), Thursday, 16 October 2003 12:23 (twenty-one years ago)

i procured some reese's pieces to stave off the crash. perhaps now i won't misspell as many words.

Why do they not make a chocolate-filled nougat bar?!

― Dale the Titled (cprek), Thursday, 16 October 2003 14:08 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm shoving jolly ranchers stolen from yesterday's training seminar into my gob right now.

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Thursday, 16 October 2003 14:23 (twenty-one years ago)

I hate that you can't just get bottled melted-chocolate the likes of which Augustus Gloop falls into in Willy Wonka. Don't care how I WANT IT NOW!

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 16 October 2003 14:27 (twenty-one years ago)

Ooompa loompa dompade dee if you are wise you'll listen to me.

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Thursday, 16 October 2003 14:31 (twenty-one years ago)

My office sucks at filling the candy dish. In fact, there usually is a dish up front, but it's always empty! (and I swear it's not my fault!)

THe office next door though is crazy with the sugar, though. I went over there this morning to drop off a contract and they wouldn't let me leave without a peppermint and a fistful of Twizzlers.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Thursday, 16 October 2003 19:42 (twenty-one years ago)

what the shit, we haven't gotten any halloween candy yet! i'm moving to teeny's job.

― Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Thursday, 16 October 2003 19:57 (twenty-one years ago)

whoo hoo!

― teeny (teeny), Thursday, 16 October 2003 20:24 (twenty-one years ago)

for real, we could use another DJ.

― teeny (teeny), Thursday, 16 October 2003 20:24 (twenty-one years ago)

Mmmm. Reeses Sticks.

― Dale the Titled (cprek), Friday, 17 October 2003 13:29 (twenty-one years ago)

I was hungry so I just ate one of those Oreo peanut butter bars. They're weird, but I don't have a wide variety of treats around me right now.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Friday, 17 October 2003 13:32 (twenty-one years ago)

I want to work somewhere where they have halloween candy! :-( *cries*

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 17 October 2003 13:43 (twenty-one years ago)

I used to think there was no way to improve upon the Reeses Peanut Butter cup... but throwing in a crispy wafer was a masterstroke.

― Dale the Titled (cprek), Friday, 17 October 2003 13:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Some heartless bastard replaced the chocolate bowl with a bowl of fucking grandma-stylee butterscotches. There is so much tension in my office this morning, I guarantee the lack of chocolate is to blame.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Friday, 17 October 2003 13:50 (twenty-one years ago)

Still no candy. And I have cramps. Yes, you all needed to know that. This mofo needs some chocolate. Nza, you should riot. What the hell, like butterscotches are even in the same realm as candybars?? I could eat my weight in Milky Ways right now.

― Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Friday, 17 October 2003 14:56 (twenty-one years ago)

And Teeny, I will gladly DJ as long as I am fed candy.

― Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Friday, 17 October 2003 14:58 (twenty-one years ago)

OH SNAP the local supermarket has bags of Kit Kats & Krunches for only a buck fiddy each! My teeth will hate me!

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Sunday, 19 October 2003 19:20 (twenty-one years ago)

Just wait til AFTER Halloween.

― oops (Oops), Sunday, 19 October 2003 20:15 (twenty-one years ago)

blount belly!

― cinniblount (James Blount), Sunday, 19 October 2003 20:21 (twenty-one years ago)

the fun-sized 5th avenue bars have been depleted and replaced with this crappy pumpkin-print tin-foil wrapped peanut butter/chocolate disk thingys. it's craptacular. i am not amused.

― Dale the Titled (cprek), Friday, 24 October 2003 17:11 (twenty-one years ago)

I have a feeling we're only going to get post-Halloween treats around here. :(

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 24 October 2003 17:28 (twenty-one years ago)

Okay, we finally got candy. Acorn-shaped Nestles Crunch thingies. Dale, I know the cheap-shit candy you're talking about. Don't eat it. It is not fit for human consumption. It's an insult. [waves tiny fist in the air]

― Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Friday, 24 October 2003 17:51 (twenty-one years ago)

Someone bring me halloween candy - stat!

― luna (luna.c), Friday, 24 October 2003 18:27 (twenty-one years ago)

Fuck you and your halloween candy fascism! I want the good stuff, and I want it now!

― luna (luna.c), Friday, 24 October 2003 18:57 (twenty-one years ago)

sorry. you'll have to pay up for the good stuff. pigs are coming down hard on us, man, and the good shit is hard to find these days.

aw yeah, you know you need a taste...

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Friday, 24 October 2003 19:43 (twenty-one years ago)

1st one is free...

― Orbit (Orbit), Saturday, 25 October 2003 22:51 (twenty-one years ago)

Candy corn and highly-addictive orange-soda flavored jelly pumpkins over here.

― Girolamo Savonarola, Sunday, 26 October 2003 07:13 (twenty-one years ago)

Smarties and Tootsie Rolls over here...

― weatheringdaleson (weatheringdaleson), Sunday, 26 October 2003 07:27 (twenty-one years ago)

okay, raise your hand whomever had a classmate in gradeschool who chopped up smarties and tried to snort them like the co-kaine?

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Sunday, 26 October 2003 08:29 (twenty-one years ago)

― luna (luna.c), Sunday, 26 October 2003 17:37 (twenty-one years ago)

What, no fun dip luna? You get to eat the dipping stick!

― oops (Oops), Sunday, 26 October 2003 20:23 (twenty-one years ago)

I swear I didn't see the innuendo in that until after I posted.

― oops (Oops), Sunday, 26 October 2003 20:24 (twenty-one years ago)

I don't like fun dips.

― luna (luna.c), Sunday, 26 October 2003 23:06 (twenty-one years ago)

what, do you not like FUN either?

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Sunday, 26 October 2003 23:08 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm very pro-fun. I am not pro-candy that tastes like crap.

― luna (luna.c), Monday, 27 October 2003 07:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Okay, Miss Heathbar.

― oops (Oops), Monday, 27 October 2003 07:49 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh fuck off.

― luna (luna.c), Monday, 27 October 2003 07:57 (twenty-one years ago)

So the big bowl of chocolate is empty now but someone sent me promotional halloween candy in the mail so now it is twizzler time!!

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 27 October 2003 20:04 (twenty-one years ago)

what's REALLY fun is to get those 3 foot long pixie stick, and then consume so much pixie dust so that your tongue & mouth is all dried out, then you start coughing up artificially-colored dust on everyone.

it makes a business meeting go by quicker, i'll tell ya that.

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Monday, 27 October 2003 20:09 (twenty-one years ago)

My lunch today = cup of coffee & 5 generic reese's cups.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 27 October 2003 20:10 (twenty-one years ago)

Everyone in my office but me is on Weight Watchers. :(

― NA (Nick A.), Monday, 27 October 2003 20:14 (twenty-one years ago)

Wow, my office too Nick! I laugh at their salt-free pretzel-counting while I stuff my face with chocolate.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 27 October 2003 20:15 (twenty-one years ago)

What I mean is no one brings candy in because they are all losers, and if I brought some in, they would be mad (or pretend to be pretending that they are mad) because I would be "tempting" them.

― NA (Nick A.), Monday, 27 October 2003 20:18 (twenty-one years ago)

Bring it in, stuff your face with it, strip down and smear your body with it, and then run around the office repeatedly slapping your own ass and saying "I'm a pony, ride me cowboy".

Tempt this, bitch.

― luna (luna.c), Monday, 27 October 2003 20:21 (twenty-one years ago)

Well, I have already technically resigned, so what can they do? Fire me? I ALREADY QUIT, BIYOTCH!

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 27 October 2003 20:25 (twenty-one years ago)

uh, that was to NA, not DB. but I take it back anyway.

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 27 October 2003 20:25 (twenty-one years ago)

I actually thought that was directed at Luna, in which case I was going to second the motion. Alas...

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 27 October 2003 20:26 (twenty-one years ago)

slapping your own ass and saying "I'm a pony, ride me cowboy".

okay, i'd pay bucks to see Luna do this...

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Monday, 27 October 2003 20:42 (twenty-one years ago)

Not gonna happen, champ.

― luna (luna.c), Monday, 27 October 2003 21:17 (twenty-one years ago)

my god the twizzlers are reforming into one giant twizzler in my belly.

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 27 October 2003 21:27 (twenty-one years ago)

OH MY GOD EEEEWWWWWWW!

(note: possibly grosser now due to the presence of "twizzlers" on the man purse thread)

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 27 October 2003 21:29 (twenty-one years ago)

The craptacular candy has basically seized the basket so that no other non-crappy candy will make it into the basket until it's gone.

I'm going to throw it all away tonight. It is the only way.

― Dale the Titled (cprek), Monday, 27 October 2003 21:30 (twenty-one years ago)

fuck that, dude. you must kill it with fire.

it's the only way to make sure that it's cleansed.

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 12 April 2004 13:28 (twenty-one years ago)

did you start with the bunny ears or feet? a SOLID bunny?

― kephm, Monday, 12 April 2004 13:50 (twenty-one years ago)

ears, solid, it was one of those nasty palmer bunnies, bleh.

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 12 April 2004 13:51 (twenty-one years ago)

soon you will be sick like me. i am eating a gneric chocolate donut hole and it has no flavor.

― kephm, Monday, 12 April 2004 13:54 (twenty-one years ago)

Last night about 2 hours into a Gamecube bender I got hungry and took one of the Lindt chocolate bunnies from my son's easter basket, bit off the head, shoved peanut butter down into its cavernous hollow carcass and howmpfed that shit in like 4 bites. I then got chocolate on the directional paddle.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 12 April 2004 15:49 (twenty-one years ago)

For some reason I got the impression that you were doing that with the Gamecube controller still in one hand, which presents logistical difficulties.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Monday, 12 April 2004 15:51 (twenty-one years ago)

The whole thing occurred over a span of less than 45 seconds. I may have eaten some foil.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 12 April 2004 15:52 (twenty-one years ago)

that sounds really awesome.

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 12 April 2004 15:52 (twenty-one years ago)

The Easter Bunny visited my son at Grandma's at about 2 am Sunday morning (where the Easter Bunny also fell over a chair that had previously not been in the fucking doorway and was heard to softly exclaim "fuck you you fucking in the way chair, goddammit, ow") and so I have been unable to avail myself of it's chocolately contents.

When he gets home tonight, however, it's ON.

― luna (luna.c), Monday, 12 April 2004 15:53 (twenty-one years ago)

"howmpfed"!
