Trunk or treat!

Went with an 80s themed setup. Now the arcade1ups small size makes sense!

my neck hurts

Their ergonomics even suck in photos.

That is just embarassing, The 80s were about cool and big hair...Keep on buying up that junk, so the rest of the world doesn't have to be subject to your delusional mindset.

I remember playing MKII back in the 80s...

Muahahahahaaa!

It was a hit! I did fudge on the dates a bit. It was more of a nod to the 80s. We were all dressed 80s style.

[leapinlew]

I think the real story here is my kids already got to trick or treat. Crazy early and it was busy.

Remember when it was controversial to let small children play mortal Kombat?

Wow great point. We were a Street Fighter house when the kids were little for that reason.  Seems kinda silly now.

Looks like those kids are having a great time.

I just got home and saw how the forum formatted my pics uploaded from my phone. They were sideways and very large.

This is the candy I gave away tonight, lol.

Nice post. The irony of misspelling embarrassing...

It was a voluntary thing. The kids had tons of fun. I could fit 2 of those machines n my mid-sized SUV. Not sure what else there is to say. 

[Nephasth]

Candy smokes and animated violence...

[pbj]

Where do you even get that stuff anymore?  Mexican grocery store?  Amazon?

Remember the toy cigarettes you could inhale and puff with?  Those probably had asbestos in them.

lol. I don't remember inhaling, but I do remember getting a puff with the bubble gum cigarettes when you blew through them. I amazon'd these. I went down quite the rabbit hole of 80's candy that isn't as readily available but can be bought on Amazon. Chuckles, Tart'n'Tiny, Big League Chew, Boston baked beans, Nik'L'Nip etc.

We probably already missed the window to make a "My first candy vape"

Wyoming just outlawed all non-tobacco flavored vape...

So now all the vape people have to cross state lines to get their fruity flavors... and their weed.

[pbj]

I went into a vape shop once. They apparently don’t make clove flavored vape.  But he had chocolate mango!

Apparently all those shops are fronts for synthetic marijuana?  I figured it was the latest scrounge up $10,000, start a “business” craze like baseball card shops and computer stores.  I vaped what I presume was just nicotine a few times but immediately lost interest once I found out I was inhaling burnt antifreeze.

Do what thou wilt.

I was thinking about that general development and thought it was nicotine-centric and 'brand'-specific. Anything in a dispensary is not of that brand, let alone type of product.

It is. For instance watermelon flavored nicotine vape juice is now banned in Wyoming. If it's not specifically tobacco flavored, it cannot be sold here. Government over-reaction. The city of Cheyenne also banned vaping in public these past few weeks. Good thing the Oche is outside city limits.

[Howard_Casto]

It's not government over-reaction at all, rather government being too slow with their laws.  Vaping is potentially more hazardous than regular smoking because the process atomizes the contents.  Many benign chemicals are quite hazardous once atomized and the fda isn't really regulating juice packs.  I've also seen vaping commercials directly targeted towards young people.... crunchyroll's content is plastered with ads, for example. 

Long story short if you don't have enough willpower to quite smoking just smoke... it's the same difference really...you'll just permanently damage your lungs with vaping instead of getting cancer.

Smoking is not Just about over...But it has been demonized  to the point special interest groups have had to resort to legalizing dope for revenue.

Not demonizing...Just hard to understand, It is not the same world this Princess grew up in.

Anyone under 50 smoking cigarettes is a rare bird these days.

Sooo....What I am hearing then is these 50+ people who have been smoking mutiple packs a day for 40 some years are NOT dead?....Aparently smoking is not as bad for you as some might like to think...*Jenn lights a Lucky, and contemplates that barbacue you seem to like 

[pbj]

2 out of 3 people get away with it. If you like those odds, enjoy.

[Mr. Peabody]

Smoking affects others' bodies. Especially children growing up in a house full of it, often helping them become jonsers as well, just like with the alk. With vaping, they can die sooner and neater.

[Howard_Casto]

Exactly.  If I eat nothing but McDonald's all day I'm only hurting myself, but if I smoke or vape I'm hurting everyone within 50 feet of me when I do so.  It's a disgusting, but more importantly, extremely selfish habit.  I have asthma and it was really bad when I was a kid and all of my extended family smoked.  They were too addicted to quit smoking around me so I just quit visiting and surprise, surprise, I got remarkably better over time. 

[Nephasth]

You gotta drive to get that McD's. Exhaust emissions aren't healthy to those around you.

[pbj]

McDonald's.... check.

What are we gonna rail on next?  Wal-Mart?  Amazon?

[JDFan]

You gotta drive to get that McD's.

Not if you use Door Dash, Ubereats, or Favor !
