Leftover Haloween candy

November 04, 2019, 12:29 PM

There were no peanut butter cups, not a single one. None of them seem to have made it to haloween. All being gone a few days before. I blame my wife.

I donated mine to a troubled gun owner with toxic masculinity issues, and flat feet.

Update: A major victory. My wife went to the grocery and they were selling off BP cups cheap. I didn't ask how cheap because she brought back 2 bags of glow in the dark cups. I have no idea what the glow in the dark means, but I can throw away the wrappers. I've gotta assume the candy doesn't glow.

Bought a bad of glow in dark KitKat bars today at half price. Hid them in my office.

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

I’m a little disappointed in that neither of my 3 kids ended up with any Butterfingers. I mean, those are the only candy I have to taste test for them. In the name of quality control and all. Alas, none were to be found.

What are these leftovers you speak of?

I never buy anything I don’t like. It ends up in the freezer for future munching

Wait, you're telling me tootsie rolls are soft the first few years? Who'd a thunk it.

Kinda like the shrimp thread, you mean to tell me there’s such a thing as “leftover” candy!?!? I thought it would be just “candy”...

We usually get - at most - two trick-or-treaters. So, my wife was suspicious when I bought 2 bags of Snickers bars for Halloween. Then she acted on her suspicions and gave those Snickers to my son to bring home to the grandkids.

Last year I had exactly one trick-or-treater. One. This year I "felt" it would be different so I bought about 4 bags of candy. Well it WAS different. I had twice as many visitors this year. My roommate found the stash a month before Halloween, so there was only about 1 1/2 bags left by the 31st. I'll be working my way through the leftovers over the next couple weeks.
