"Oh no! We can't have Christmas without that one specific type of candy! What do they expect us to do? Eat something else??? DEVASTATING!!!"
Speak for yourself. I can only eat foods served in Pyramids, this Christmas is going to be all Profiterols and Goa’uld Symbiots.
Fuck me what a reference 🤣👍.
No Toblerone?
Or do you mean literally inside a pyramid?
Prismic structures give me horrible indigestion I’m afraid.
It's not just "One specific type of candy", it's a sign of good taste. These are the only chocolates good enough for the ambassador's reception.
See this British documentary on youtube: "With these Rocher, you are really spoiling us"
Since Brexit, a pyramid of these chocolates served on a silver plate, is all we've got left for international diplomacy.
They sell them at the gas station down the road from me
Excellent. Buy a load of them, make them onto a pyramid, chuck them on a silver plate - then use it to lure loads of ambassadors to your house.
Once you're noted in society for your exquisite taste, you can influence foreign policy and international trade.
[Edit] Alternately, you can just eat them. They're quite nice.
One type of sweet!
Candy is the generic American word for sweets. American's think chocolate should include stale milk and use Fructose! (cancer causing, obesity driving) Fructose in everything.
One could easily argue American candy has nothing in common with UK sweets (have you tried an American Kit Kat?).
Its like serving a German a Richmonds sausage, they'll get confused.
It's just candy dude, it's not that big of a deal
