I can't believe I'm saying this, but if everyone is interested in a candy megapoll I'll run it, because I'm crazy apparently.

...what you want to do, see, is create a poll so that people can vote for their choice. Now, have you ever created a new thread? Well, before you submit your thread you're gonna want to scroll down to where it says "Additional Options"...

Ice cream and candy are two completely different entities.

Similarly, cotton candy flavored candy is just ridiculous.

At any 7-11 you can lean on the ice cream case while you look at the candy aisle. It's a legit choice right up there with Red Hot Atomic Fireballs.

Candy doesn't include ice cream. I HAVE SPOKEN

Also, the winner is clearly fresh Whoppers malted milk balls (or, if seasonal candy is allowed, those Robin's Egg things that are M&M coated whoppers).

A close second is a Clark bar.

Anyone who says otherwise is retarded. But that's ok. I've known that about you guys for a while.

I'll give you the fresh whoppers (fresh is key) but the Clark bar?

Are Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs allowed to be a different entry than Reese's Peanut Butter Cups? They have a better PB to Chocolate ratio.

And where I shop, you can see the candy aisle from the wiener bin. Harumph.

Yeah! Way better. I would vote for them over regular cups any day. And I love peanut butter cups.

A Clark(e?) bar* is to as a Butterfinger as a prime, aged porterhouse steak is to a McDonald's cheeseburger that's been dropped on the floor and stepped on then put back on the bun and left to cool.


*Again, fresh is key, and it's freakin' hard to get them fresh west of the Mississippi.

We must leave it up to our esteemed megapoll master @Idle Thoughts, but my feeling is that either seasonal candy is allowed or not. If it is, the Peanut Butter Eggs (and Cadbury eggs) and (the clear winner) Robin's Eggs are allowed. If not, they're all out.

Well, if Rat Diva wants to run it, she can....I don't want to hog all the polls haha.

TCB just brought it up because I started doing this one on my FB and it's already HUGE, it seems. Which, by the way, if any of you want to add me on there and participate, it's here.

I'll do it if nobody else wants, but if one person expresses even a mild interest, (like @Rat Diva did above), they can have the fun (and work, heh, hoo boy) of running one. Up to you, RD.

I'll think about it and let you know tomorrow.

Hmmmm, run the poll and have the fun of being capriciously tyrranical, or let Idle do it and hold onto the few shreds of sanity I still have...

I vote no ice cream, seasonal candy allowed, Reeses Miniatures have the best chocolate to peanut butter ratio, stale Whoppers are pretty good in a pathetic, shameful way, and we should immediately start a thread with candy nominations.
