( Monday NO PO) Today is "Wicked" Day, & Candy Corn Day...

Post by Z is for Zangie » Mon Oct 30, 2023 2:05 am

Wicked refers to the play and movie, I have not seen either, so I have no comment to make, but, I like being Wicked in a fun, playful way and that was what I first thought.

Candy Corn, everyone either hates or loves it...I am a lover of it...( I like Circus Peanuts too...lol...

I bought the Wicked book for my Dad many years ago for Christmas. I got it early enough that I read clear through it before I wrapped it. It was a pretty decent take on the story.

I love candy corn, but sadly cannot eat it anymore. Along with almost all sweets. Damnit. I did start buying sugar free gummi bears lately. Unlike the famous Haribo sugar free Gummi Bears, these do not give me fountainous diarrhea. However they do make me fart like a cowboy on a steady diet of beans. Noisy dry farts, like a broken trombone.

A little TMI Tarm...lol...I meant to mention I love the original, especially the books as they are far more complicated than the movie was...but, I have always loved the movie ( except for Somewhere over the Rainbow for some reason, it grated on me even as a kid...maybe I thought it didn't fit the tone or something.) I have a bunch of collectible Wizard of Oz stuff. I think I never watched the movie because I thought I wouldn't feel the same about it.

Not so bad Tar, you keep eating those gummies & I'll make you my go-to guy to break the ice and loosen things up at funerals and weddings and you could be my main man for jury duty.
It could even pay 👍 rent yourself out for parties
