So, anybody else remember Pixy Stix? The building landlord just gave all the tenants these boxes full of crappy candy (not quite sure what's up with this, as they've never before expressed any opinion one way or another on our tenancy, as long as we pay the rent). We've been grabbing the odd jujube when we go by (if we go out the other exit, we have to pass a bowl of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, which is clearly the more evil option). But then we spotted the Pixy Stix and kind of freaked out. We mean, they're basically pretty-colored sugar you just huff directly into your brain. But, Pixy Stix! The tradition at our place of lower learning was not to pour the powder directly into your mouth, but rather to spill it on your hand, and then lick it off, thus producing a slightly candy-dyed, slightly gooey palm. Ah, dextrose!
