Brown 25

Posted on July 16, 2015 by heretherebespiders

If you get the title reference, you are officially not a young’in. It’s okay, I’m not a young’in either. We can grow old(er) and more immature together!

This is something I could buy:

Now, it is a charity selling these, and I support that of course. But. But. Butt… “brown drops”?

Sounds more like something that is coming out of, rather than going into, a digestive system.

I do buy their licourice allsorts, but this one scares me.

*Brown 25. Not safe for work, home, the bus, the train, while eating, on a bicycle, on a chair, in a car, or on a motorcycle. And whatever you do, don’t click on this link to Safety Sam.

  Oh, but that one second when it goes ‘spurt, splat’ made up for it!

Safety Sam scared the hell out of me so I closed the window. Then I reopened this post, clicked on the link again, then closed the window again. Which means this is the 3rd time I’ve logged onto this post, all because I’m a scaredy cat 🙂

How is it you’ve got your thumb on my impulse control problem?

  I laughed so hard at your comment I started to cough, which meant I wet myself a little, which made me laugh harder…

    So glad I’d just gone to the bathroom when I read your message! (Also I was showing Husband the thread and I almost clicked again. It’s demons I tell you.)

      I saw this (it is a movie) when I was waaay young. I thought it was a cute talking elephant until the camera got closer… And closer…. And suddenly I realised I should not be watching this.

      Well, someone clicked five times yesterday, and you are the only one to comment on the links! I must revise – not everyone pushes the button that says ‘don’t push’!

Yeah, I have to agree, offering someone a brown drop is all kinds of weird lol

  I’d guess they have so little actual chocolate in them, they can’t even be cute about it. Both bags are still there today – but someone bought the rhubarb things and left them for others to share! I dislike rhubarb, so didn’t partake.
