People have been buying bags of candy since mid-August for October 31.
I saw a pallet of candy corn at Meijer at the end of July. I bought a bag and it turned out to be the most fresh and delicious bag of candy corn I’ve ever eaten. Then I realized that all the stale candy corn I usually buy around October and am disappointed in is just super old because it sat around for 3 months before being eaten. So I’ve decided from now on, I will only enjoy candy corn during peak candy corn harvest in late July early August.
You city boys make me sick!
Up here in God’s country we don’t go to no dad-blamed, fancy nancy Meijer store for our candy corn. Hell, no! We drive our trucks to the top of the Devil’s Mountain of Screaming Insanity and Painful Death; then we hike fifty seven miles through the Unholy Swamp, cross the Bridge of Savage Disembowelment into the Forbidden Plains of Lugubrious Misery, and then, and only then, after proving our strength and manly worth, do we allow our Mommies to give us the candy corn THEY got at Meijer
November? My local Home Depot was selling Christmas decorations on September 29th. There should be a law…
If I ever become the ruler of the world, I’m making a law that every month gets one major holiday, and that holiday shall be confined to that month.
That’s 13 major holidays, plus New Years (and Leap Day) since I’d also be forcing everyone to use a better calendar.
'Sounds sensible. What’s your take on climate change? (Maybe I’ll write you in on my US ballot.) 😀
IMO, Halloween needs to extend into November. The US has Thanksgiving, but it might as well be mini-Christmas at this point. Halloween needs to establish a bulwark.
