ITT you help me decide on my signature candy bar
Poast new message in this thread
Date: March 13th, 2008 12:51 PM Author: Mildly Autistic Hall I will have a few of these on my desk and people will comment on how much I like XYZ candy bar. The best part is that since I really don't like candy that much I won't have to buy too many to create this image.
If I had to choose an ideal candy bar, it would include caramel, nuts (preferably not peanuts), and little to no chocolate. Ideas? |

Date: March 13th, 2008 1:02 PM Author: jet travel guidebook i loathe caramel and am stridently pro-peanut butter; so we aren't likely to agree. however, due to it's relative scarcity, simple throwback packaging, and perfect execution of the often bungled chocolate/peanut butter synergy, i recommend:
clark bar |

Date: March 13th, 2008 1:03 PM Author: Mildly Autistic Hall I am not a big fan of peanut butter, since you are likely to be eating mouse shit. However, your clark bar idea is a good one. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=783472&forum_id=2#9472539) |

i need to know more about what you want to convey, what you want to get out of it.
do you want to be taken more seriously? a signature candy runs precisely the risk of conveying unseriousness.
do you want to get laid? if so, it's a difficult trick to play the signature candy very lightly; let her discover it and define it as an ironic aspect to your character . . . "he's so smart and serious . . . but the way he always has a movie theater size box of Goobers is SO cute . . . " something like that? |

Date: March 13th, 2008 2:32 PM Author: bull headed federal base peanut m&m's. even if it isn't always the most satisfying candy. the packaging is sexy and as a candy, it is austere enough to preempt association with the fat working class (this is the main problem with snickers). it is durable across time and climate (twix/reese's are prone to becoming stale and melting). finally, it is sufficiently mainstream and classic so as to not betray overthinking on your part (clark bars say "i try way too hard") and not outdated (watchamacallit? wtf?). plain m&m's would be the optimal choice but peanut has a certain stylish appeal (mercedes/bmw is the apt analogy).
edit: for image purposes, nothing beats pouring a couple packets of m&ms into a pretentious dish on your desk. if you want to make this into a meme for yourself, you can take advantage of the festive promotional colors (xmas, switching to pink/white for breast cancer awareness month, etc)
edit2: i didn't realize that you said no peanuts. that's a problem since its the most common nut, but there is still hope yet. you could go for almond/peanut butter m&ms (most of the same advantages, but you might be running into overly obscure territory). what would be amazing is if you could pull off kinder bueno. it's out of the mainstream and its durability is seriously lacking, but the european touch might impress hot chicks. plus it's one of the best tasting bars out there. |

Date: March 13th, 2008 2:56 PM Author: Cobalt Disrespectful Fortuitous Meteor Rigpig Although it doesn't meet your test (no nuts or caramel, has chocolate), an amazing candy bar is Cadbury Crunch/Violet Crumble (Crunch is from the UK, Violet Crumble from Canada). It is a honeycomb covered in chocolate. I have found it in the imported foods section in stop and shop multiple times. It is a high class candy. You will instantly get a promotion and the ladies will find you irresistible. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=783472&forum_id=2#9473117) |

Date: March 13th, 2008 3:04 PM Author: bull headed federal base yes, another negative is that it's addictive and not very filling. its like chocolate crack (similar phenomenon w/ malteasers) (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=783472&forum_id=2#9473173) |
|
Date: March 13th, 2008 3:03 PM Author: bull headed federal base crunch is fucking outstanding. i can't believe they haven't brought an imitator stateside. it melts easily and goes stale, but the taste trumps these considerations.
other choice bars from across the pond are flake (possibly discredited only because of its messiness - replace with time out or twirl, or try it with praline), smarties (all the advantages of m&ms but with far superior taste), dairy milk whole nut (a sophisticated choice without coming across as a dandy), malteasers, aero, fingers (intriguing cookie crossover), and fuse (good if you have a small penis, to convey the impression that you're a big thing in a small package). |

|
Date: March 13th, 2008 3:08 PM Author: Nubile Galvanic Affirmative Action My advice - personalized M&Ms.
You can place a special order have them write something on the back (it is somewhat illegible). I suggest getting your name and bar # on the M&M. Perhaps you can hand them out in lieu of business cards.
You should also buy them in several colors, and switch out the color each day to match whatever tie you are wearing. |
