better late than never.
Here, have some of the million chocolates leftover from yesterday.
you can even have some of mine
I have Starbursts as well
Making stuff up since real Leafs news is far too depressing
Starburst...
What was the deal there? It wasn’t quite gum, it wasn’t quite candy
Big Smoke Sports - We Burn The Buds, Roll The Raps, and Smoke The Jays
what? they’re tasty and fruity, so you don’t feel as bad eating a bunch of them instead of a bunch of chocolate
Making stuff up since real Leafs news is far too depressing
oh, I liked them...
I just never understood their malleability
Big Smoke Sports - We Burn The Buds, Roll The Raps, and Smoke The Jays
yeah thats right
I just said malleability
Big Smoke Sports - We Burn The Buds, Roll The Raps, and Smoke The Jays
was it like “How do they put the caramel in the chocolate ?” kinda of question?
Making stuff up since real Leafs news is far too depressing
sorta/kina...
I always felt like they made me uncomfortable about when they were done. They stayed together like gum, but eventually disintegrated

Rockets...
Just flavoured sugar crushed into a puck.
Delicious
Big Smoke Sports - We Burn The Buds, Roll The Raps, and Smoke The Jays
when I was younger, we used to make “rocket fuel” by grinding them up in the coffee grinder. Thus bringing them back to their slightly flavoured, sugary glory!
I had a roomie who was once totally perplexed by the fact that in the States, Rockets are called Smarties, and the Smarties as Canadians know them do not exist in the States. It took like 10 minutes of explaining before she understood it
Making stuff up since real Leafs news is far too depressing
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa...
There are no smarties in the states?
Big Smoke Sports - We Burn The Buds, Roll The Raps, and Smoke The Jays
There are so Smarties in the States!
It’s probably the only thing you can get here that doesn’t say “made in China” on it – so you can enjoy the sugary goodness without fear of lead or melamine. :)
(At least in Michigan, anyway.)

I worked at an ice-cream shop for a while...
And it took me a LONG time to explain to an American was “Crispy Crunch” tasted like
Big Smoke Sports - We Burn The Buds, Roll The Raps, and Smoke The Jays
WHAT?
We need to stop having this ‘things that don’t exist in the states’ talk, or my head will explode.
IE: healthcare
Big Smoke Sports - We Burn The Buds, Roll The Raps, and Smoke The Jays
I love ketchup chips
or Wunderbars. I love Wunderbars
Making stuff up since real Leafs news is far too depressing
On the other side...
The States have “cookie crisp” cereal, which is amazing.
Big Smoke Sports - We Burn The Buds, Roll The Raps, and Smoke The Jays
Everytime I go to the US...
I buy a box and eat it by hand immediately
Big Smoke Sports - We Burn The Buds, Roll The Raps, and Smoke The Jays
what about that stuff reese’s makes? that’s rather delicious
Making stuff up since real Leafs news is far too depressing
can parents actually keep a straight face while feeding their kids that stuff for breakfast?
or is the market 99% university students?
Probably more university students. Weed makes you get munchies, amirite, Archimedes?
Making stuff up since real Leafs news is far too depressing
weed...
makes me get all kinds of things.
The munchies is definately one of them

For the record
Isnt the first period usually terrible?
It’s Ron Wilsons “WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON OUT THERE?” 1st intermissions that usually do the trick
Big Smoke Sports - We Burn The Buds, Roll The Raps, and Smoke The Jays
the secret?
a carboard cutout of Bettman that, with each weak shot from the point or a bad angle, becomes less and less clothed.
could be a scary sight come the 2nd INT.

He looked confused and didn’t know what to do

Shock collar
Give him a jolt when he needs to get back to the bench. If it works on a mentally deficient black lab, it will work on Blake.

then won’t he dread coming to the bench?

No.
If he comes back to the bench when summoned, he gets a treat!

pastrami
from wiki:
The raw meat is salted (through immersion in a thick brine), then partly dried, seasoned with various herbs and spices (such as garlic, coriander, black pepper, paprika, cloves, allspice, mustard seed, and others depending on the specific recipe)12, and smoked. In Canada and the United States, pastrami is made from beef and the meat is kept hot on a steam table before slicing for serving.
Making stuff up since real Leafs news is far too depressing
Pastrami is a popular delicatessen meat made from lean red meat, chiefly brisket.

It’s the flat of a brisket that goes into a pastrami. Brine, smoke, steam=pastrami.

I'm saving
most of my emoness and failness for when we play the Bruins
Making stuff up since real Leafs news is far too depressing
or...
when I get to talking about relationships again

That’s why I’ve sworn off dating.
My last break-up, I actually had a guy tell me that he wanted me to act less intelligent around his friends, because he found it emasculating to have his buddies know he was dating a smart woman.

/not a personal attack , just general rant
it seems like in my experience, anyone who says “I want a smart woman/man” they really forget to add in “…as long as they aren’t smarter than me.” Add in that apparently being a single woman is a fate worse than death, it makes me wonder why I even bother trying to be intelligent when I’m going to fail either way. then I remember, I actually like being strong independent, etc, and I don’t need a relationship to validate my existence.
again, just my experience, your milage may vary

Yup.
Fortunately I’m okay with being single. Open to meeting someone, but hardly desperate. :)

Yeah, I’d rather be single than have to do shit like that

And here's the odd thing ...
He met me in the LIBRARY!
Needless to say, that was a pretty damn short relationship. I don’t do stupid bimbo for anyone. :)

Was the problem...
that he had dumb friends?

They weren't bad.
He was just more insecure than he seemed at first and nervous about being shown up. He shouldn’t have been, though – he was a sweet guy and had a great sense of humor. He wasn’t all that stupid or anything, either – he wasn’t well educated, but was pretty well read and very thoughtful.
