I'm going to take a wild guess: Scott doesn't eat candy. He doesn't like the way it tastes in his mouth. He makes fun of Rym, who likes weird candies that nobody else likes, yet he insists are better (ALTERNATE: He makes fun of Rym for just liking the aesthetic of candy and not really liking candy, or some such nonsense).
Dunno about people at the US, but I can really tell you were raised in a Latin American country, all the animes you've mentioned, I've grown up with, Candy Candy not being a stranger on the list.
Airline BS: I've been stuck on planes for a long time . . . and my DS numbs my urge to get rowdy. Well . . . that and I'm usually stuck there for work which means I'm stuck anyway.
I can't stand any of the Bubbilicious gum at all. It's just too chewy and too much to put in your mouth at once, and the flavor goes bad too quickly. I prefer eclipse in the spearmint variety.
What about Pop Rocks? Has anyone tried them with Coke?
Yeah I did about a month ago. My friends and I remembered that urban legend so I did it. I didn't explode but I burped so much in one day it was ricdiculous!
I was on the Quiz Bowl team in HS too! You should do a Thrusday Show on Quiz Bowl!
A GEEK QUIZ BOWL!
Really! Me too! What hilarious is i'm not UP THERE in smarts but because D.C. public high schools in the ghetto are so dumbed down lower than high school a usual C+ or B student like me be on the team. WTF.
Actually, this would be a good idea for a Skype show or maybe even a series of Skype shows. We could even have teams and brackets - but please, no anime questions; or, at the very least, don't let it degenerate into an anime only game. Keep traditional academic categories like Math, Science, Literature, History, and so forth.
It might even work as a forum game, but there would have to be an honor rule about no Wikipedia cheating and such.
Sounds cool hungryjoe. It would be nice to have those educated knowledge questions but there could be anime, manga, comics, sci-fi in there. The thing is to have a balance of things.
It's sorta like asking how did Ranma's gender changing ability originate and then asking some about a R.A. Salvatore book.
I was hoping you were going to talk about that movie from the late 60/70s where the naive young girl gets 'comically' raped by Ringo Star, Richard Burton, Walter Mathow, and Marlon Brando, all in a whimsical PG-13 way.
More on topic, Hydrox is the worst name for a cookie ever. Caremello (sp) bars FTW. When I was in elementary school and we had to raise money by selling those white cardboard suitcases of candy, I would always eat all 15 out of the box, and then at the end of the drive I would have to scrape up 15 bucks, which can be hard when you are 9 (in the late 80's).
Yeah, I noticed that too. Juicy Fruit ftw! HungryJoe was right, however, about the best gum ever...
And I can't believe you guys hated Warheads. Man, those things were the BEST. They are a great way of determining somebody's power level (and the watermelon ones taste great too! Ph33r teh black cherry, tho).

That is one EXTREMELY rare/unknown anime. I know a handful of people who knows about this in the US.
And Scott, I Megaton Hammer you across the face for not liking coconuts and Necco wafers!
