Bathtub contributors are sweet, salty and sometimes stale, just like
real snacks. For example, they are sweet when they are hilarious, salty
when they've been swimming in the ocean and stale when they were out
too late drinking the night before and can't think well enough to come
up with a coherent post. But, thanks to Internet's insatiable demand
for fodder, all our snackable posts are consumed by someone out there
in cyberspace. Following the jump we'll play a little game involving
snacks and tubtributors.
So, you clicked over here for the game, right? Well, basically I have assigned a snackonality to each tubtributor. In this week's edition of the O.O. you will be asked to match each snack type to each tubtributor. In next week's edition, I will reveal the answers and provide answers and explanations (that make a varying degree of sense). Happy matching!
Astronaut
Ice Cream
Crack Cocaine
Oreo Cookie
Creamsicle
Triscuits
Banana
Candy Beans
Mini Club

Jawbreaker
Sour Patch Kids
Column of the Week
Well, Jerome's column was obviously well-received by the commenting readership despite being completely cracked out. This is a real testament to Jerome's skillzorz because most people can't invent such insane words such as "snacknanimously" and still be beloved, but he truly is. But still, I can't give him CoW because his column last week just made too little sense. Instead, the award goes to Caitlar for her column "Snacks for Grown-Ups". It was very insightful to compare snacktime to happy hour and to boot she provided a pretty original list of cocktails. Can't go wrong with that combo.
Congratulations.

Oh man, I hope I'm matched with astronaut ice cream. I love astronaut ice cream. Though, I guess that's a pretty nerdy snack, meaning that Justin would appear to be the obvious choice. And it's not like we actually receive real-life versions of the snack that's matched with us. So what do I care if I'm matched with a shitty snack like bananas?
In other news, who the hell calls them "candy beans"?

I'd assume mine was crack, since you said it was cracked out.

If I had to guess, Tori, I would say you are the jawbreaker because they are too much for one sitting.

Sorry the formatting got all messed up. Stupid typepad.
Keep the guesses coming!
Also, clearly Tori is not an "Arrested Development" fan.

I want to know the answers! I can't wait an entire week! I need to know NOW.

I would also guess that the Major is Sour Patch Kids, Emily is 'candy' beans, and Caitlar is the banana.

If I'm the Creamsicle, I'm gonna be pissed, I hate those things.
Posted by: D.C. | September 26, 2007 at 03:08 PM
Haha yeah good work with the candy beans.
Posted by: Jerome | September 26, 2007 at 03:13 PM
agreed- but I wish mayonegg was one of the choices.

I don't want to be a sour patch kid!

Why am I the banana? Because I'm bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S?
