Did you ever notice how if someone is serving Jellybeans in a candy dish, the yellow ones are always the last ones to go. I don't think most people like the yellow ones. Why don't they ever think to make Jellybeans without the yellow?

Similarly with canned fruit cocktail. Most people go for the cherries first, but there never are many cherries. Why not make a "mostly cherries" can of fruit cocktail. I know I'd buy it. I'd pay extra.

You know how there's been all those great Stephen King Television mini-series over the years like The Stand, The Langoliers, and It. Why don't they put together a whole season of those old classic Stephen King mini-series. Hell, I'd rather re-watch that than watch first runs of reality TV, or whatever the WB's got planned for fall.

Here's one I don't think is scientifically feasible, but I'm going to mention it anyway, because it seems to fit; You know how people like to smoke? You know how they shouldn't, because the tar and crap gets built up in their lungs?

OK, well apparently there's this new kind of bio-technology where they create little microbes that eat up stuff no-one wants. They're starting to use this technology to clean up stuff like toxic dumps and oil spills. The microbes eat up the bad stuff, and leave the good stuff behind.

So here's what I'm thinking. Why don't they build a microbe that like's tar and nicotine, then sic it on smoker's lungs? In this way people could smoke, and still be healthy.

I think thoughts like that sometimes. Do you ever think such thoughts? Thoughts that make you say "Why don't they do that?"

They heard your plea, n4h my friend! This product is available (from Del Monte-and no, this isn't a plug!) I think it's called "Cherry Delite" or "Just Cherries" or something like that...the little dwarves love it...

And why do they make black jujubes? I always throw out the bag when they're all that's left, 'cause no one eats them. Why not make packages without black jujubes?

Oh God! I love Black Ju Jubes. I'd trade a whole bag of yellow jellybeans for 1 black Ju Jube. :D

LMFAO...yeah I think those types of thoughts...but mostly I just wanted to post so I could laugh, stare at the computer screen with a look of fondness and say

I love you guys...you're so damn cute.

Jellybeans...hmmm...I always felt the same when it came to Skittles...everyone always took the grape and cherry ones...I always had a ton of green and orange ones left. I can't say I minded the yellow ones but I love the point you make.

As for your smoking microbes...genius...lol.

WOW! I think this all the time. I love the black and red jellybeans. They made fruit gums with only the black and the red. But that was a limited edition thing. I cried when they stopped. Cherries are my favouritest... (that's not a word is it? Nice one elms!). Anyway, my point was that I love Cherries and I'm gonna go find these "Just Cherries" things!

I'm gonna have to agree with Rayne here and say "You guys are really cute!"

That'd be sweet, it'd save my lungs alot of hassle and me the need to quit...lol.

I think the same things...With the Yellow jellybeans I like those and the Red ones oh and the White ones. But no one likes the White or Yellow jellybeans. So we get a big bag and break them up in colors. I get the Yellow, Red, and White jellybeans. Everyone else gets the others. Same with M&Ms I only like the Red and Blue ones. And almost any Candy I only like one or to colors.

Same with the fruit cocktail I only like the Cherries. So I only eat the Cherries. The "Just Cherries" are so good. Plus I don't have to buy 5 cans of fruit cocktail to get 10 Cherries.

One of the things I was thinking about today was why they do always but gross chocolate in the chocolate in the boxes and only abbot 3 good ones. Why can't they put only the good ones in and lave out all the gross ones.

There are always about four chocolates left that you have to eat just because it feels like a waste to through them away..
It is like that with many things, but it can't be harder to make the good ones right..? So why put the ones that noone likes in there at all..?

this is such a fun thread!

here in norway we have a bag of different chocolates, it's called twist... and in it, there are choco for the whole fam, exept 2 or 3 of the different chocs that are left in the candy dish after we are finished with the bag.. it is very annoying.. exept in my case it can be practical sometimes(but only sometimes) casue if i have no candy, and it's a weekday... and i really want candy...i will eat them :D
