Well, it’s the day after Halloween and we are left with the “cushion” of several bags of candy that we got just in case the handful of trick or treaters that make it down our 200 yard driveway somehow morphed into a shuffling mob of candy zombies. Well they didn’t so I’m here in my office mustering the courage to set all that chocolate free…unfortunately some of the “Fun Size” bars aren’t going to make it, I am weak!
In the course of my culling of the candy herd, I have notice that the Fun Size bars are…thinner. I think they are the same length and height, the wrapper is even the same size, but the thinner bar has a lot more freedom in the wrapper than it used to. I can only assume that:
- They have managed to pack more fun in a smaller package.
- They have reduced the fun by about 20%.
- There have been cases of too much fun in years past and thank god now we have some regulation.
I suspect it’s number 1 because I seem to be here in my chair just jittering to go release some of this stored fun. Apparently they contain plenty. An informal poll of parents of small children indicate that there has been no reduction of wall bouncing fun. Well I gotta go.
Oh, The Places We'll Go...
