LJ Idol Week 2, in which a sour note strikes a sweet tooth

[porn_this_way]

Ladies and gentlemen, a travesty has befallen us. It is small, green, booger-like, and in every sense of the word, a bad apple

I so want skittles right now.

Hey, go for it! Four fifths of the bag will be delicious, and the remaining 20% make excellent projectiles.

[grail76]

You could always sort them and leave the 20% in candy dishes for people you want to leave quickly.

If you don't send this immediately to the Skittles/Wrigley company, you have missed your purpose here. :) Seriously deliciously funny and wonderful. Happiest vote I will ever cast! :)

[kecharasmoon]

I second this motion. There is no way this wouldn't end up going viral. Also, now I want Skittles.

LOL oh man. I'm more than a wee bit tempted to go and poke their FB page with a stick a bit more, sooo not gonna lie.

Haha, well I did post the Metallica concert comment on their FB wall a few days ago after first having my taste buds assaulted by the sour kiss of green death, but NGL, it's more than a little tempting to go back and post a link to this graphically enhanced shitfit.

Thanks so much for your comment and kind words! If apple skittles can serve as a springboard for lulz, then perhaps there's a place for them in this universe after all. (Just not mixed in with the original flavors OMG!)

WELL, I was intending to bitch about Skittles, not give them free advertising, but meh. I was never too good at this whole "goal setting" thing in the first place, so SURE!

I laughed and laughed, especially here:

These are wannabe gothling poseur Skittles

[porn_this_way]

Hey, don't mock gothling Skittles' SRS BZNS ANGSTY SOULS, okay?! Geez :P

:D This was unexpected, in part because I am glad (GLAD, I tell you!) that lime Skittles have been replaced by green apple.

The candy versions of "grape" and "lime" are so chemical-tasting and far-removed from the actual flavors that I consider them to be the flavor of "purple" and "green".

Now, I can happily eat 4 of the 5 Skittles flavors, rather than eating red and orange and sometimes bowing to 'lemon.'

This tirade, though, was hilarious.

These are wannabe gothling poseur Skittles, Twilight fangirl Skittles
See now, the "Darkside" Skittles totally deserve this. They're not dark, they're just "other." No amount of promoting can make them dark!

You're right, of course. But purple tastes SO GOOD.

[halfshellvenus]

Unless, of course, you hate "purple" and have never gotten beyond that. ;)

Orange, now... there is so much good orange. "Baby aspirin orange" is one of my favorite versions, and there even used to be a diet orange soda sold in the U.K. that tasted like that. I bought it pretty often, our last trip back there. :D

Ha! I have an issue with "white" cake. I mean, really, what flavor is "white" other than sugar?? If I want a "white" cake, I'll buy Vanilla, or even better, French Vanilla, but "white" is a color, not a flavor!
