Candies I Don't Get

When I think of Toblerone, I think of Joey Tribbiani.

I’m not a huge candy fan, in general. But there are some candies that are too ridiculous for even me to comprehend. Grow up and eat a Reese's like a human with some actual taste.

Here comes the shame.

1. Toblerone

When I think of Toblerone, I think of Joey Tribbiani. If you watched Friends as religiously as I do, you’ll get it. If not, sorry. But really, I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone who truly likes Toblerone. Isn’t it just one of those candies you buy someone you hate when you forgot to get them a gift for their birthday or Easter or maybe when you get back from a trip? Who actually picks this for their own pleasure?


2. Neccos

What the heck are Neccos? I know they're old and classic or whatever, but times have changed. We have Smarties now. It’s time to dismiss these, “sugar, corn syrup, gelatin, gums, colorings, and flavorings,” flavored crap.


3. Skittles

I can feel the hate already. I have honestly never understood Skittles, unless they are of the sour variety. They taste like if you ate a piece of fruit, regurgitated it, added sugar, and hardened it into a candy. Now is that appetizing? No. Give it up. Skittles are the gross cousin to delicious M&Ms.


4. Pixie Stix

So, one day, someone sitting in an office said, “Hey I bet if we just put sugar in a sealed straw kids will go crazy for it,” and now he’s rich and we’re stupid. Honestly, just take a spoonful of regular sugar, eat it, and save the money.


5. Tootsie Rolls

My brother’s favorite candy used to be Tootsie Rolls, but, now that I think about it, what even is the flavor of these things? Is it chocolate? If so: wow, step it up. Doesn’t taste like chocolate at all. Plus try eating these candies with braces. Might as well just hand your orthodontist a check for $5,000 up front, you’re done for.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
