The Best Classic Halloween Candies, Ranked

Because this matters.

Halloween is a time to let loose. Specifically, to let your waistline loose. And, of course, everyone loves candy but not everyone loves the same candy. While some people prefer the sour pucker of a Warhead, others prefer the smooth, creaminess of a classic Hershey's chocolate bar.

1. Skittles

Skittles are superior because you're actually tasting the rainbow. Each one is like a little nugget of joy. But really, they're kind of like crack. Once you have a handful, you can't not have another. Hence why they reign supreme.

2. M&Ms

M&Ms are like the sweet, chocolate version of Skittles. They're both tiny, easy to pop into your gullet, and are easily accessible in the sense that you can gorge on them without feeling like too much of a fat-ass.

3. Reese's

For those of you with peanut allergies, you suck. You'll never understand the beauty that is engulfing a peanut butter cup in one inhalation. These things are amazing, but tend to melt easy, which kinda sucks if you're too lazy to bring one to your mouth for too long. The hard candy shell on M&M's and Skittles kind of saves you from dealing with that for at least a couple minutes. Right?

4. Snickers

Okay, this bar has like, four layers, for you complex hipster dipster types. It's got peanuts, duh. Also chocolate, duh. But it also has caramel and I am pretty sure nougat. That's pretty cool. Can't beat something with that much going on, but also, why are they trying so hard? Sounds like they're attempting to impress when really they should just chill out.

5. 3 Musketeers

Okay, a lot of people hate these shits, but they're actually pretty good. They're creamy and you can't beat that because there aren't that many candies that are solely creamy. I mean, you have creamy and crunchy, but this bars purpose is solely to make your mouth feel like it's coated in sugar. That kind of sucks but the taste is pretty baller.

6. KitKats

These little bitches are delicious. I'd put them at number one, but they're also kind of a cookie, so it's less of a candy to me. Plus when you think of candy, you don't actually think of KitKat first. You think of the previous candies. So while KitKats are probably the best tasting, ask yourself: are they really the best HALLOWEEN candy? No. They're the best year round candy. Moving on.

7. Sour Patch Kids

They're sweet, they're sour, and then they're gone. That's it. I mean they taste good while you have them, but I can pop these things like Tic-Tacs, and we all know Tic-Tacs aren't candy, so what the hell are Sour Patch Kids? They ain't no gummy vitamins, I'll tell you that, but sometimes they taste like them if you eat more than 30 in one sitting. Next.

8. Candy Corn

Disgusting. I don't even want to hear it. If you like these, Halloween is cancelled for you.


Good luck trick or treating this year! If you can't find any candy, there's probably a special on wine.

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
