5510 | Article | onipar | Ouch, harsh! :-p I agree on the Circus Peanuts for sure. Those Peanut Butter Kisses are pretty bad too, but I'd still eat them in a pinch. Milk Duds are definitely too hard and sticky, and yet they were such a staple in my treat bag every year that it just wouldn't be Halloween without a couple of those little boxes rattling around. Pixies Sticks are fine for straight-up sugar powder. Not the first thing I'd reach for, but also not something I'd trade away. Almond Joys and York however... those I straight up LOVE! Nice list here. Getting me excited for Halloween. | Sep 24, 2021 | ||
5523 | Article | onipar | Love the title to this one. Sorry it was spurred by a bad day, but the exploration sounded fun. Yeah, back in Brooklyn my brother and I would go exploring all the time. The older we got, the farther we went. When I hit Junior High in 7th grade, we were given public bus passes, which opened up a whole new world too. | The Mystery of the Second Neighborhood | Oct 16, 2021 | |
5524 | Article | onipar | I miss the days of television Halloween countdowns and marathons. I know a few channels still do it, but I don't have cable anymore. And even if I did, to a certain extent, I feel like extensive home libraries of movies and streaming sort of ruined the whole thing for me. Knowing I can pop in the movies I want to watch whenever I want to watch them, I'm unlikely to try and tune in to live broadcasts. We definitely miss something without it though. | A Closer Look At: The 13 Days of Halloween | Oct 16, 2021 | |
5525 | Article | onipar | Great list! I've actually never seen the Wishbone one. And that Dracula one, I think I've only watched part of it on a VHS mixtape I have. Garfield, heck yeah. One of my favs for sure. It's funny, I was just thinking about The Last Halloween, trying to remember the name of it (haven't seen it in a long time). That's the one that had a promotional connection with M&Ms, right? | Five Retro Halloween specials on YouTube | Oct 16, 2021 | |
5529 | Article | onipar | @Vaporman, Never been to a Hills, sounds perfect! @Beb, thanks! HA, yeah, the smell of a drugstore was pretty unique. Yeah, there was just something special about the smaller drugstores and the type of stuff they'd carry. Around Christmas too. | The Halloween Superstore | Oct 18, 2021 | |
5530 | Article | onipar | @Ben, oh yeah, this was circa 1992-1993 when I had the bus pass. I was 12-13, right before I moved to PA. I actually still have the bus passes in my old wallet from those years, because yeah...I save everything. :-p | The Mystery of the Second Neighborhood | Oct 18, 2021 | |
5531 | Article | onipar | Nice article! Don't know how I missed this one. I had the NES and then the Genesis too. Were always late adopters, so by time I was choosing, it was between the Genesis and the SNES. For whatever reason, the Genesis really captured my attention and that was the one I begged for, finally getting it as a graduation present from elementary school. I never did own my own SNES as a kid (got one as an adult when I started collecting), but my neighbor had one, so I got to experience a little of the main games at least. | The NES and Sega Genesis Console War | Oct 19, 2021 | |
5535 | Article | onipar | Wonderful article. My area is very much like this as well. I'm actually planning on going out to "the mountain" tomorrow morning with a cup of coffee to enjoy the leaves, weather, and solitude. | Echos of the past: A Northern Autumn | Oct 23, 2021 | |
5544 | Article | onipar | Thanks, Ben! I still have a soft spot for The Lawnmower Man. Not sure I ever saw the director's cut, and I *definitely* didn't know there was a video game! Gotta check that out. | One Last Scare | Nov 11, 2021 | |
5545 | Article | onipar | Well, this is THREE YEARS late, but thanks, Pannoni! I'll have to go find your YouTube channel. Hope you're still uploading! | VHS Television Treasure Hunt | Nov 11, 2021 |
