SKITTLES ARE PEOPLE

So, like the seat and the floor aren't skittles yet because he's wearing pants and shoes?

I want to see him walk barefoot across toxic landfills and turn nuclear waste into sticky sugar pellets.

Also, maybe he should've worn gloves before shaking hands with the dude on the bus (or answering the phone).

The beard one is more awesomer.

According to the rules of Midas (Midas rules!) the terms of the curse are that anything he touches with his hands turn to skittles/gold so he can still be dressed, he just can't dress himself. What follows from this is that he can't possibly wear gloves.

Of course, there's the whole scatalogical (skittlelogical?) angle which hasn't been addressed.

And what happens with the facepalm of death? Why isn't he the CEO yet?

And when he finally tires of this horrible new life of detachment and alienation, he can simply do that Archie Bunker finger-gun-to-the-forehead thing and *POOF* -- sweet oblivion. Call it suicide by Skittle.

I LIKE THE PINK ONES.

Absolutely, just like starbursts. They changed the flavor of those some years ago, then changed it back, so I guess some people complained before I got up the steam.

I was trying to impress my nephew by demonstrating that he could put any two flavors in my mouth and I would chew them together and then identify them.

Little fucker stumped me by putting in two of the same flavor.
