Fireball or LemonHead?

Postby Joshua! » Tue Jul 17, 2012 4:24 pm

Which are you?

I heard that if you overlay a map of BRC with yellow pins for the lemonheads and red pins for the fireballs, it'll make a picture of Larry snorting coke.

And it determines the teams for dodgeball on Wednesday.
Lemonheads to the left, Fireballs to the right.

I keep thinking lemonheads must be a subtle insult of some kind.

I was insulted with a Lemonhead. But I mailed my friends ticket to him with a candy necklace.

Ask yourself: are YOU really a fireball or just a silly lemonhead?

Lemonhead, thank god. I was wondering what the big bulge was in the package. I thought WE were supposed to send the candy.

I must admit to being slightly disappointed about receiving two fireballs.

That seems so 2001....

Yeah, but it is an example of fireball fertility. Your original fireball must have split into two daughter fireballs en route.

Turns out, my two fireballs are different sizes.... One is obviously bar-coded for individual sale, and the other is smaller and marked "not for individual resale".

C'mon BMORG! Where will it end? :wink:

I miss my fire balls! Will call tickets this year and last. :(

I may have to buy a big bag of fire balls and hand them out in the will call line.

I got 1.25 Lemonheads with my 2-ticket order. It's one individual package for one Lemonhead, but there's one whole candy along with a sliced of chunk of a 2nd piece. :shock: Fertility 2.0 indeed

I was greatly relieved to find a fireball in my ticket envelope.

But then I noticed it was OPEN! AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! :shock:

Can't bring myself to consume it, even though it's probably fine. (I'll have to find another for burn night).

I'm Lemonhead, but I try to see Fireball's point of view too. I try not to talk candy in public, it gets really heated pretty quickly. I mean seriously, just because someone refuses to release any more than the last 2 years of candy records and now suddenly everyone suspects them of being licorice. Its just not civil anymore.
