Im not the only one dreaming work.
You guys are seriously fucked up. My dreams never relate to work. My private life fuels my confusion.
I get the sense you actually like your job though. Mine is fine but I'd still much rather be completely free.
This is the first job I'd say I get personal satisfaction from, but my dreams have never been work related. (Last night I was driving around with Brad Pitt for some reason, and my small talk was telling him movies he was in that I didn't like. Dude was good-natured about it all, so props to dream Pitt.)
I had Obama in a dream once...I think. I cant recall any other "well known" people who were in my dreams.
Did he admit to Benghazi?

He blamed it all on Hillary.

Of course! Lindsay Graham was right all along!

Do people still hand out big wax lips for Halloween? Or those 5-packs of wax vials full of colored sugar water? Both were pretty useless as candy, but I remember a certain curiosity factor with the sugar water. They seem kinda dated, so kids today would probably see them as grandpa candy. I always liked candy cigarettes though. Ah, the 80s. There was the slim sugar-stick variety, but I preferred the bubble gum kind in basically a cigarette paper, with the powder that you could puff out to make a cloud of “smoke”. The latter really taught kids the joy of puffing out a cloud of smoke. Now I’m kinda jonesing for a bubble gum cigarette.
Candy cigarettes were such a fucked up invention.
Totally. We used to roll the packs up in our t-shirt sleeves like little greasers while we pretended to do repairs to our bicycles in the garage.

There were also black liquorice cigars and pipes, with little bits of red candy on the end to make it seem like they were lit.

Jeez. I don't remember those things. I picture some little kid with a licorice cigar dangling out of the corner of his mouth while pretending to manage a bowling alley.

I guess Big League Chew falls into the same category. Someone gave me a bag of Big League Chew a few years ago. Hadn't had it since I was a kid, but damn, that was some good bubble gum. Much better than the old hard bazooka bricks.

Then there was this stuff, in a similar pouch. It tasted as awful as it sounds.

Never seen that, but I bought Popeye a few times:

Fun fact: my stepbro was going to use that for his first dance at his wedding but my buzzkill stepmom talked them out of it.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Did you get "Johnny 99" for yours?
