Roland Foss hates pennies so much that he is getting rid of them at his two Orange County stores. According to KCBS, he will start banning them tomorrow at his Mission Markets in Fullerton and Anaheim. What happens if your total doesn’t end up on a 0 or a 5? He will round the dollar amount to the nearest increment of 5.
Why is he doing this? He explained, “We’re all consumers. We know how annoying pennies are. They waste time. They accumulate. We throw them in the trash.”
I know that pennies are annoying, but I still like them. Poor pennies.
Elf on the Shelf comes with a warning that says, “Christmas magic is very fragile, and if scout elves are touched they may lose their magic. If your scout elf has been touched, you can apologize by writing a letter to Santa, or saying you’re sorry to your elf.” Well when 7 year old Isabella accidentally touched her Elf and he fell to the floor, she called 911. According to WNBC, the police officer tried to calm her down, and got her to apologize to Santa and for calling 911. She learned her lesson and now will the Elf on the Shelf company learn theirs? That is a major bah humbug to make kids scared of losing Christmas like that. Grinches!

Ever since I read the story, I have had The Police’s Be My Girl, Sally stuck in my head. If you’ve never heard the song written by Andy Summers, you can hear it below and you will understand why I do.

If you are like me, then as a kid you would love to eat just the marshmallows from Lucky Charms. Only problem was there was cereal in the box too. Well, that is no longer the case. At least for 10 boxes. General Mills is giving away those boxes without any Charms to 10 Lucky winners. All you have to do is “share a photo of yourself holding an imaginary box of Lucky Charms on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram between October 14 and 18 using #Lucky10Sweepstakes” to enter.
If I won the box, I don’t know if I would want to open it up and eat the marshmallows or keep it as a keepsake. But then I would be afraid that people would want to steal it because it is so valuable. Great, I just talked myself out of entering. I guess, I will just have to buy a box of regular old Lucky Charms, throw out all the cereal and keep all the colorful marshmallows. Then, when I am done, I can eat all of the sugary goodness and wonder why a few weeks later my dentist is telling me I have 3 new cavities.
A few weeks ago, Burger King announced that they are making a Halloween Whopper with a black bun, and now people are taking to social media to reveal the scary side effect. It is turning poops around the world green. Why? At this point, we don’t know and the fast food giant has yet to comment on the green doo-doo.
Now, you have to wonder is the Frankenstein colored crap a trick or a treat or both? It’s a trick how they made it happen. It’s a treat to a see a different color in the toilet bowl. Now, why people are looking in their crappers to see what color of the rainbow their sh!ts are, is beyond me. Can you explain that one to me?
Anyways, I don’t know about you, but it so makes me want to try one to see what happens. Don’t you want to find out if it is true?
I guess the scariest thing this Halloween season is not all the nerds who dressing up as Donald Trump, it’s all the turds that are the shade of the Presidential candidate’s hair.
