Nobody

shakes head pityingly.

That's a known side-effect from eating those inferior M&M wannabe thingies.

Julie, what are you still doing up?

The smartie dot com thing is because the UK company Rowntree's sold the Smarties name to an American company a long time ago.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

...those inferior M&M wannabe thingies.

But why would anything wannabe an M&M? That would be crazy. Wanting to be a Thornton's Continental Truffle, this I could understand. But wanting to be an M&M? Next you'll be praising Hershey's kisses! Pah!

If I only had a brain...

Oh, I wish I were a Peanut M&Mmmie
That is what I'd truly like to beeeee

Not really. If I had to wish, I'd wish I were an apple tree.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

M&Ms are just special and wonderful you sillies.

Smarties, otoh, are too flat. You could never stick a peanut in a Smartie.

Is now the time to start trotting out my "I have been to M&M world and it was fucking great" stories?

Most of them end with the telephone conversation between the friend with whom I was in Vegas and the boy.

Her: "Three freaking floors of it."
Him: "sorry?!?!"
Her: "Three freaking floors"
Him: "No..."
Her: "Three. freaking. floors."
Him: "I heard"
Her: "Three! FREAKING! Floors!"
Him: "Now see? I never would have gone in in the first place."

I loved M&M world. They had the best tshirts (EVA!) and M&M's"® COLORWORKS® I've never seen a Smarties memorial to match it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You could never stick a peanut in a Smartie.

Another point in favour of the Smartie.

Here comes your ugly legume prejudice, rising to the surface. Tsk.

Next you'll be praising Hershey's kisses! Pah!

Not so much, unless they're pressed into the center of the peanut butter cookies my s-i-l T makes, which are to die for, in fact, they're enough to put up with T for.

If you'd said crispy, you'd have had me.

But a nut? Mixing nuts and chocolate is an abomination unto the food dogs. Which is why chocolate and peanut butter is blasphemy.

Julie, what are you still doing up?

It was just a driveby courtesy of my small bladder, moonlit. It's back to the bed that is better than any bed that is not my bed time for me now.
