Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

My parents give out full size candy bars and one little girl this year came up to the porch to get candy and stopped dead in her tracks, gasped softly, and whispered, "They're big"

It was adorable. I think this was the first time she'd gotten full size bars for Halloween, based on her reaction.

That is absolutely adorable...

It was. I love sitting with my parents when they hand out candy because kids get so excited about full size bars

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Dude I'm 31 and (would never be trick or treating but if we suspend disbelief for a second) even I'd say "oh shit full bars!" Full bars are always exciting top tier candy on halloween.

Everyone is awestruck by full sized candy bars.

She’s not wrong. Somebody gives me M&M I’m going to be in love with them as well

Talking about stardew valley:

My friend: "who even marries someone just because they gift you sashimi weekly?"

Me: "I would"

I answered a doorbell last night and there was the tiniest little girl I'd ever seen walking. When I opened the door she responded like she just won a million dollars. Couldn't even form words over the happiness exploding from her glee as she jumped up and down, fists shaking in the air. It was indeed the cutest thing I've ever seen.

I looked up at the father and he was just glowing.

Very touching but why is it yelling at me

I feel much better about shark marketing, or sharketing, if you will.

It could be worse... At least my phone didn't autocorrect the k to a t when I googled it.

M&Ms are shit and the American version uses a red food dye that causes cancer.

So nah.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Man, I live in California. Everything is shit and causes cancer.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We don't know definitively what causes cancer or we'd be a lot closer to curing it, so assuming everything causes cancer is a good bet.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Being alive causes cancer, and we do have a cure for that.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So cancer is the cure for cancer?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Give the cancer cancer so the cancer dies of cancer.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

There's a newspaper in the UK and they seem to think that everything in the universe is divided into things that cause cancer and cure cancer. And they're on a mission to catalogue all of them.

The trouble is they're not very consistent so sometimes in one issue they'll claim it'll give you cancer and then six issues later they'll claim that it cures it. It's a Murdoch paper so that's about the level of journalistic integrity that they have.

They've also claimed in the past that water causes cancer, that's why I don't take showers.

Peanut M&Ms are pretty good. I always get a regular sized bag of M&Ms at the airport for like $6. Idk why I like them so much more when sitting on an airplane, but I do, so there.

Mmmm I could go for some red eminems right now

This warmed my cold, dead, depressed heart.

I adore the little girl that did a doubletake when she saw I had bananas (and bags of popcorn and gummy candy). She went "O.M.G." as she took a banana.

Fruit was surprisingly popular. I ran out of oranges and had to substitute in banana. And I think kids liked the popcorn because it comes in impressively big bags.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, kids love oranges and nanners. Sometimes my son eats like 3 bananas instead of dinner.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

We give out toys, stickers, jewelry, temporary tattoos, stuff like that. Little cheap things we can buy in bulk. Kids love it. They go crazy over a light-up Halloween ring or a high bounce pumpkin ball and we're not giving them junk food.
