Continuing on from yesterday’s article, here’s Part 2 of 2006’s Greatest Halloween Candy, which admittedly isn’t as “greatest” as the stuff in Part 1, but without tricolor Twistables, how could it be?
I’m trying to think of a Halloween-themed survey that we haven’t already done to death in previous years. Hmm. Okay, got one. “Mischief Night Memories.”
I know the term differs from state to state to a degree, but for me, “Mischief Night” took place on the eve of Halloween. Our costumes weren’t on yet and our sacks weren’t full yet, but we were covered in egg, covered in shaving cream and covered with conviction to make everything around us just as covered with those things. Despite the inherent immaturity involved with squirting shaving cream on someone’s car, I always felt five years older than I was on Mischief Night. My friends and I always ended up running with the bad seeds in town, because if you didn’t swear allegiance to them, they’d peg you in the belly with eggs. And they wouldn’t even crack them first. Those things felt like god damned golf balls coming from the right arm. Though Mischief Night’s heydays are over in my town, the local grocers still ban sales of eggs and shaving cream to minors around Halloween. It’s so awesome to get carded when I go to the supermarket for eggs in October. Discuss your Mischief Night memories in the comments.

I am SO glad I’m not half the freak I thought I was. With Matt and then others commenting here I now know I am not the only one who has the love/hate relationship with whoppers. I always thought it was some sort of psycological factor concerning something I had seen or heard from my childhood of someone getting sick on them or maybe some forgotten episode were I got sick on them but I guess not. So now my secret is out and I don’t feel so bad anymore. But I disagree with sweet Matt on the whole not liking the revamped Reese’s cause I actually like the pumpkins and christmas tree Reese cups better then the originals. I know, I know. Sacrelgious-Scandelous-B-A-D, but I can’t help it. I’ve tried figuring it out too and can’t seem to. Maybe it’s because they give just a bit more (or in MY opinion a lot more) pb in them….Who knows but I always love Reeses on holidays. And a comment about the carmel apples-So I just tried my hand at some of them today as a matter of fact because I had this great idea to make some for work and my mom got me a milk maid bag with YES FREE POPSICLE STICKS! And so I went at it and it was working all fine, as soon as I figured out to add some water to the melting carmels, until I got to the part were you peel the apples off the wax paper and I had failed to grease it-DUN-DUN-DUN! And so I had painfully remove the papers with carmel ending up all over counters,fingers,floor,knife,shirt (sort of souds like a bad porn film or something…)then it struck me with awful pain-how would I wrap these to take these to work because then I would have to grease the WHOLE APPLE in order for the paper not to stick when I wrapped them up to take them to work so now I am on a mission-to find an easy solution to this problem on WHAT to wrap the finished product in so I could take it to work so people won’t have to pull their apples off the same tray and it would easier to transport them TO work if I could package more together without them sticking together. So far my results have proved fruitless other then all these other websites keep referencing me here and I love Matt to death but doubted he could help me out in this situation but I did give me quite a few laughs thatI needed to get rid of this frustration-So if anyone may by chance have ANY ideas on WHAT I should wrap my apples in in order to transport them to work (I’ve got 35 to do
I’d GREATLY appreciate it
