I seem to recall that there was a second round of candy corn in which the randomness of the condition was admitted, and at least some of them wete shipped with a rapid dismantling assist device included.
@er1c Be sure to wrap them in toilet paper ala the toilet paper caper back when a number of us sent meh many rolls of weird and strange toilet paper as apparently meh couldn’t afford it for the bathrooms. . Oh and don’t forget to embed fidget spinners in it. Then send it back. You know. For old times sake and memories.
@er1c@Kidsandliz If you need fidget spinners, let me know. I have many fidget spinners and would be happy to provide some. Or, ya know, I’m going to be in the area of the warehouse later this month…
I’m going to be in the area of the warehouse later this month…
You mean you will be in the archeological dig area of the warehouse where the candy corn was found entombed for the afterlife of the mummified baby arm. Right?
I gave those out one Halloween much to the major delight of the neighborhood kids. I had a pretty good stash too.
@er1c@Kidsandliz
I missed all of the fun times from 2017, always late to the party!
But… Back when I was 18 and moved to Florida after graduation I worked doing door to door (office to office and poolside to poolside, no place was off limits) sales, kind of a paramid thing. Anyways one day our mission was to get as much toilet paper as possible and bring it back to the home office simply because we were running low! Of course everything there was a contest and I have to say I was usually winning everything. That’s when I learned that I could sell 10 pounds of in a 5 pound sack! Lol I have great memories of that day, fun times for sure! And yes I won, I brought 2 huge black garbage bags filled with TP!
Fun times making money!
@ChadP You should post stuff like this every so often to give newbies and others some idea about the prior mishaps events that have happened at Meh. Maybe call it “Flashback Fridays”. Yeah, I know it’s not Friday.
Anyway, it gave this old mehtizen a much needed laugh.
@duodec@narfcake This year in North Texas, definitely. On the plus side, almost certain to not get ruined by rain. We don’t get rain here anymore.
Okay, some areas get these very spotty pop-up storms that least for like 7 minutes and are localized to the point that earlier today at the gym looking out the back windows it was pouring rain but outside the front door it was completely dry. Texas weather is weird.

This is exactly how culture is created, both corporate culture and bacterial cultures.

Gotta love it… making lemons into lemonade!
I’ve been dry aging these in my car for the past five years. One day they’ll be ready, and I’ll mail them back.

@er1c You need to build the box out of obsolete iPhone and MacBook cases. And wrap it with ribbon woven from wired earbuds.

Excellent thread, truly enjoyed it and chuckled. Thanks!
Didn’t we work out an estimate on the tonnage of these?
It has been FIVE years?!?!?!?!
@tinamarie1974 Need help?
@Barney just shocked it has been so long!
One year ago Natasha had six kittens.
@lisaviolet And now you have six cats, and Natasha has a sunny spot near a window.
@lisaviolet
I can’t believe that was a year ago!
Bring it back you cowards
Just an FYI folks:
@heartny Mmm… sugar + carnauba wax
