snorting pixie sticks

Someone brought in a plastic cauldron full of leftover Halloween candy and everyone is all excited about the freakin pop rocks. Gross. I'll take a salt lick over candy any day. So they all got talking about candy they love, like Fun Dip (I don't even know what that is) and Pixie Sticks, ack.

My coworker, not to mention any names, just told me that when she was in high school she talked some of her friends into snorting Pixie Sticks. Dear God!

She also said it was great and that not only does it clear up your sinuses but you can spit in color. And why would you want to spit anyway, nasty?

Even if I loved Pixie Sticks (ack - never) I would never think to snort that crap up my nose. Of course this may also explain why I am not a coke addict.

Ok, now they are telling me Gobstoppers are a real thing! And that they actually like eating Twizzlers, it's like eating candles!

Am I the freak or are they?
It's me isn't it?
God, I had a sheltered childhood.

Oh, and Chastity, I was totally on the side of Red Vines over twizzlers, I hate twizzlers, but what's even better is the thick red ropes, yummy.

Sigh. Guilty as charged. I was a bad girl : (

The reason you would want to spit in the first place is because it's in color.

No, you're definitely not a freak. Twizzlers are disgusting. Since when are candles appetizing?

And stay away from the pop rocks! If you mix it with soda they explode in your stomach and you can die! I knew a guy whose brother's best friend's cousin's next door neighbor's sister died from it. seriously!

Thank God for you Lizzie! The rest of these candy freaks are making me feel like it's all me. I am not alone!

FUN DIPS!!!! I loved those,. They were amazing. Pixie Sticks weren't really popular here.
