Invader Norbert–don’t worry. Start worrying once you start thinking about Columbus Day before Halloween even arrives.

It IS okay, however, to start thinking about NEXT Halloween immediately after the clock strikes 12:01 a.m. on November 1.

Hahaha "Soon they’ll slip off the Q radar and get all scandalous-on-purpose. Lousy Peeps." That shiz is hilarious.
Pumpkin Jason is totally adorable, and so is the Jack-O. Are we all allowed to start using "bonusly bitching" now?

And mtrox — yeah, so long as you survive the night, might as well start planning next year.

I forgot to mention that I saw a Drac poster the other day on the counter at my local mechanic (who can’t seem to stock state inspection tags when I need them, but that’s another story). The poster had a huge Drac on it, and the advertisement was for, you guessed it, shocks. (I think.) Anyway, it was some promotional "buy something, enter to win something" deal. But that Drac was awesome. And I think it’s cool as shit that auto parts folk celebrate the Undead in their advertising campaigns.

I’ve got to get some sleep, but "I Sit On Acid — Stript Version" (Lords of Acid) just popped up in the spin of things. There’s no way I’m sleeping now.

Well, duh I thought about Columbus day…it was only 2 weeks ago.

And Holy Crap, I forgot about I Love The 80s 3-D!! Weird Al is supposed to be in this one too!

Lisa Marie, Cameron, I think we need X-E English Major club tshirts.

The clock on the blog makes me look like an insomniac. It’s only 1:21 here, not 3:21.

Chestnuts roasted by Gabbylicious @ 10/25/2005 3:22 AM

Aggh, I can’t take it anymore!!!

Pepsi Holiday Spice, seeing Episode III late, Jones Thanksgiving Soda, Jones Halloween Soda, Mountain Dew Pitch Black I and II, Halloween Kid Cuisine, and now Halloween Decorating Peeps.

Sigh yet another thing I miss out on by being in Godforsaken Germany.

C’mon Astros. If you don’t win the World Series, I’ll die. Or vote Democrat. Or move back to Texas.

Semper Fi,

You know, I really shouldn’t be surprised that there are so many other english majors reading XE. Perhaps someday we can all work at the same fast-food joint, and scam Happy Meals toys for the sake of new articles.
My favorite thing to do with Peeps is to microwave a yellow chick with a blue bunny scrunched really close together on the same plate. It quickly turns into a two-colored, dual species gooey bubbling CRIME AGAINST NATURE.
Much like the Hungry Man breakfast.

Chestnuts roasted by Jedoc @ 10/25/2005 7:24 AM

I prefer my Peeps hard and stale (but frozen will do in a pinch).

That Hungry Man breakfast looks amazing, but I’m the kind of guy who revels in things that are downright awful for you.

And I’m also an English major.

Chestnuts roasted by mtrox @ 10/25/2005 7:48 AM

the ONLY way to eat peeps is stale. open the pack as soon as you get them, wait a week, and dig in!

Lisa Marie, I’ve got a pair of 3D glasses kicking around my bedroom at my parents’ house. Not cardboard ones, either… all plastic, and aviator-style shape. They’re hideous, but they’re permanant

Chestnuts roasted by Vegan Mike @ 10/25/2005 8:52 AM

My 3-D glasses came from the back of a box of Fruit by the Foot.
The really tragic bit is that I had a pair that I got from the British Museum’s mummy exhibit. They were made to look like the eyes from King Tut’s deathmask. Unfortunately, I forgot to get a souvenir for one of my friends who is a fan of both mummies and 3-D movies, and so I ended up giving them to her.
And that is the story of my lost mummy 3-D glasses. Admit it, your lives have changed for the better merely by reading it.

Chestnuts roasted by Jedoc @ 10/25/2005 9:10 AM

Having eaten an entire box of regular pumpkin peeps yesterday, this article kind of grossed me out. In a good way.

I too, was an English major. Graduated in 2003.

Chestnuts roasted by Jessica Marie @ 10/25/2005 9:18 AM

Crikey.

I really need to get off the X-E blog and update my own wee wordspace.

Or work. Yeah, my boss would like that, considering I’m leaving two days after I get off Halloween vacation for a meeting in San Jose.

Meh.

Chestnuts roasted by Lisa Marie @ 10/25/2005 9:36 AM

"Bonusly Bitching", I like the sound of that. It sounds so 80′s.

Awesome article, it was "Bonusly Bitching" . I laughed the whole way through. Thanks Matt.

Chestnuts roasted by Texican @ 10/25/2005 9:38 AM

People like looking at pumpkins in November, just not jack-o’lanters. I try to wipe my slate completely clean for the Christmas season after Halloween though, so no pumpkins for me.

If this were the ’80s, that Jason Peep would totally get mass-produced.

Chestnuts roasted by Monte @ 10/25/2005 10:12 AM

You know who loves Peeps? (Of course not.) My dad. He got like a little kid every spring when they started showing up (you know, back in the day before Peeps started peeping into other holidays.) I think he enjoyed them all the more because my mom hated them and it was one of the few treats he could keep all to himself without her constantly trying to score some from him. It’s the little things.

The peep at the top of this page looks a bit like garfield. I still haven’t found the cocoa bats, but I want to.
Is it OKAY to say, CHRISTMAS IS ONLY 2 MONTHS FROM TODAY. I didn’t mean for that all to rhyme, but I am not going to try and retype it so it doesn’t.
MATT- are you going to do a Christmas Jukebox? I know the songlist could be endless, but you could keep it to older childrens TV special Christmas songs. I am way jumping the gun I know. It’d like 29 degrees outside here and all frosty, can you blame me?

Chestnuts roasted by kb @ 10/25/2005 10:45 AM

The http://www.x-entertainment.com/christmasjukebox.m3u">Christmas Jukebox from last year is still available, but it will be tweaked with new songs for the 2005 season.

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 10/25/2005 10:48 AM

Wow… a Peeps cake would kick all sorts of ass…

Chestnuts roasted by CannedPasta @ 10/25/2005 10:49 AM

I think I’ve tried Peeps once in my life. Those things are gross. I know I’ll probably be banned from the blog for saying that, but I still can’t go to my Aunt’s apartment and not think about those things….

Oh, and I hate pumpkin anything also…I’m so not into Halloween….

Chestnuts roasted by Galvatron @ 10/25/2005 11:03 AM

Yes, blame. Blame is all we have for you. Blame blame blame.

(Pass the cocoa and gingersnaps, won’t you? Quietly, please — the "Chocolate," "Coffee," and "Tea" movements of The Nutcracker Suite are playing. *wink*)

Chestnuts roasted by Lisa Marie @ 10/25/2005 11:06 AM

Galvatron–I know this was not your intention, seeing as how you mentioned hating both things, but I had a thought.

Pumpkin flavored Peeps! It would be a worthwhile expansion into Thanksgiving for the Peepsters, and they could also do normal-flavored peeps in the shape of turkeys and pilgrim-hats.

Oh man, I am going to be a billionaire.

Chestnuts roasted by mtrox @ 10/25/2005 11:21 AM

Peeps cake? Buy two of the kits, spread the icing on one pumpkin, stack one on top, icing on that, stack, icing, stack, decorate. Then try to eat it in one bite.
Just because I have to limit my sugar, doesn’t mean I can’t still think of new ways to reach a sugar rush.

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 10/25/2005 11:37 AM

mtrox,

What fabu ideas! I’d already thought a marshmallow baby Jesus would be groovy around Christmas-time. A bit…erm…tasteless, perhaps, but groovy.
