I never understood the popularity of candy corn.

<triple virtue signaling warning>

Besides an occasional very rare bar of dark chocolate(1) or an occasional Reese's(2), the last candy I ever had was an "Almond Joy" bar at a movie about 20 years ago(3).

Forgot what the movie was.

Least Illinois gets something right occasionally.

NY is beyond redemption and needs to go.  Along with Indiana apparently.

There is no fixing stupid. But, you can line it up in front of a wall and offer it a last smoke.

There is no such thing as a "transgender" person.  Only mental illness that should be discouraged.

One map says Reese's for Texas and the other M&M's.  I favor Reese's, but M&M's are good too.

Salt water taffy in Washington? Inconceivable!

The one they list for Ky, Swedish Fish, I've never even heard of.

My wife eats those horrible Swedish Fish.  Essentially a fish-shaped gummy bear that has the same sort of fake raspberry flavor as cough syrup.  Blech.

The morning news mentioned this candy map.  Favorite movie candy by state.  Apparently some on Wisconsin were upset that is said they prefer Kraft Cheese Slices.

I'm more than certain the map is just completely made up.

Hot Tamales is the most popular candy in New York, Indiana, Arizona, and Virginia.

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

P=1.2 ?   =D

Yeah, I know, just an hyperbolic expression.  There are tons of them all over the place.
