Fun Size© Snickers© -- more fun than other sizes?

clarification, please.

How large is the Funnest Size?

Only if you use them as missile weapons to throw at trick-or-treaters.

They work well with wrist-rockets, I'm told.

No, not really. A full size Snickers would be more fun.

Fun Size Heath Bars are more fun than other sizes, though, because they have just the right amount of toffee.

Fun Size isn't more fun, it's just plain fun.

[whatifoundthere.livejournal.com]

That's right. If it were more fun than the regular size, it would be called "funner".

I'm just waiting for them to start calling chocolate bars "tall", "grande", and "machismo" (or whatever the biggest Starbucks atrocity is -- I'm not man enough for it, I think).

Re: clarification, please.

Well, the Fun Size© is about two inches long. As for the Funnest Size, that's my question!

[quislibet.livejournal.com]

So less lube = more fun?

[labellemargaux.livejournal.com]

that whole fun sized thing really ticks me off. nothing is more fun than a nice, king sized snickers...unless you had a bag of fun sized snickers, which would be even more fun! 1 puny little fun sized snicker actually blows. suck sized!

it suggests that “fun size” chocolate bars represent the fading attraction of all youthful pursuits

I'm just going to eat the whole package now, weeping openly all the while.

[komos.livejournal.com]

Precisely my reaction. The first time I noticed the term "fun size" I cried up into the heavens, "WHY DO THEY LIE???"

[quislibet.livejournal.com]

That must have made for quite a spectacle at the CVS!

[komos.livejournal.com]

It was at a Brooks, actually...

...and then some old lady bumped into my ankle with her scooter and to me to get my crazy arse out of the way.

[komos.livejournal.com]

And that would be "told me."

The best part of the following comment is that I typed it on company time

[whatifoundthere.livejournal.com]

I saw an elaborate recipe once on the Usenet for a litter box dessert. I remember it involved half-melted Tootsie Rolls strewn about in grape nuts.

[arbolera.livejournal.com]

No!!.... Fun Size Snickers are MUCH more fun than the other sizes. Dear god I cannot describe how enjoyable they are. 2 inches is definitely the funnest size.

Presumably you are talking about the candy bar, and not merely the cynical pleasure certain persons obtain by insidious suppressed laughter at, and at the expense of, their peers and co-workers. For, 'twere that the case, it could easily be argued that a loud, robust guffaw would not be as much fun, as it draws too much attention to the guffawer. They instead hope to rivet curious and accusatory states on the object of their derision. Further, too small of a snicker will not do; directing of attention does not work if one is not noticed.

As for the candy bar? Pshaw; Reese Cups are obviously superior. Though whatever your later poster would do with "lube" is less likely to be effective in conjunction with Reese Cups. This seems just as well.
