Stranger Danger!

How dangerous can these people really be? Of course there are your rapists and your molesters and your murderers but without the bad, where is the good?

Coming out of a Meijer around midnight, I was greeted by two college aged blond girls. They were neither drunk nor on a different drug, but these two peppy children came to us holding out two bags of candy.

"Would you like some candy?" They ask.

And I, your typical almost-average-but-not-quite internet guide to life, give her a puzzled glance.

Do not take Candy from strangers. Do not get into strangers' vans. Don't talk to strangers. Just say no.

"Haha, no reason!"

Still more than puzzled, I reach into this bag and pull out a caramel apple sucker. It's important to note that if any of the goods in either of the bags were at all out of the wrapper or even slightly unwrapped I would not have, but it was all clean. All untouched.

Afterall, 'tis the season of hyperdermic AIDS needle caramel apples and poisoned popcorn balls.

We debated in the car about the reasoning behind this. Perhaps they were doing some sort of experiment about strangers taking candy at odd hours after grocery shopping. Maybe they really did find someway to poison the candy. Perhaps they were just being nice.

NAH! HAHAHA NO WAY!

Society does not train nice people. Buyer beware! Everyone is out to hurt you.

I'm probably not going to eat that sucker but hey, it's got an awesome story behind it.

Conformity at its Finest

If it's good enough for Jason, it's good enough for me. All that needs to be said.
