Okay, I have no idea why the Halloween candy bowl came out this week at work. My TL keeps bringing in candy and refilling it, but most of the time it contains the dregs of the candy world: green and blue Jolly Rangers.

An online acquaintance (hi, Leibniz!) complains of a similar candy bowl at his coordinates in space/time/ectoplasm, except that his dregs consist of root beer barrels in addition to Jolly Ranchers.

As to why this stuff is appearing, more than 2 months in advance, I really can’t tell you, but it’s not doing me any good. It’s right behind me, a simple arm’s reach away. Yes, even the dregs eventually get snarfed up.

One question I have, though. What is “blue” flavor? Why does Jolly Rancher think “blue” is a good color for a fruity candy that is not blueberry? Apparently, it’s raspberry. So why “blue raspberry?”
