Super Bubble

Someone stocked our office with Halloween Candy. The kind that comes in big bags and is usually generic. Suckers, Jaw Breakers, Sweet Tart. This bag apparently catered to the no chocolate crowd. Although it seemed like a equal mix, one candy made it's presence know over the others: Super Bubble. You know. The kind that comes in red, yellow, and blue packaging. The one, whose smell is so strong that you can initially taste when eating any other candy it's come in contact with. For some reason this brings back memories of classroom parties in the 4th grad. Why the 4th grade? That was probably the year I figured out the candy hierarchy. The cool kids brought Snickers, or Milky Ways. Some kind of candy that everyone knew. The uncool kids got stuck bringing one-lick suckers. I tried to fill in the middle with Nerds or Runts. Anyway no matter what kind of party it was, Super Bubble always seemed to make an appearance. This is also the gum you were likely to find when cleaning out your desk at the end of the year. Stuck way in the back and even though it had become hard as a rock, you still tried to chew it, because let's face when is Super Bubble not hard as a rock?

This reminds me of something about candy. Dwight's Mom got some random chocolate candy bag. And the chocolate had no taste whats so ever. Like not even a bad one or good one. Taste like nothing! 0_o With chocolate going down hill it's a good thing you dont eat it anymore.

I think that gum would servive a nuclear bomb.:-p
