One time, in the last year or so I believe, there was a thread in which people were talking about all the things they did with M&Ms—lining them up certain ways, playing tiddely winks, getting caught doing these things at work, etc. It got pretty funny, and I’d love to see it again, now that I’ve stumbled upon a few diversions of my own. Terms like ‘anal retentive’ and ‘obsessive-compulsive’ were mentioned. Does anyone else remember this? I had no luck searching. Thanks.
If I recal, the thread was about some doper playing GLADIATOR with is M&M’s.
Oh, here it is…
You beat me to my own admission.
To your credit, I remember the thread because I was laughing my ass off.
I love this board.
Ditto. Thanks much. Going to go read it now.
I once bought a bag of M&M’s and there were 64 of them. Made for perfect seedings, no qualifying rounds required.
I give the brown ones away. They’re boring.
Then I eat the red, orange, yellow, green, and blue ones. In that order.
Try microwaving them for a few seconds before eating - they get nice and gushy inside.

But doesn’t that fuck up the battle?
I used to work with a guy who would buy a pack of M&M’s, open them, drop one into his shirt pocket and begin eating the rest. When I asked why, he answered “So I’m always sure to know when I’m down to the last M&M. It’s so dissapointing to accidently eat the last one without knowing it’s the last one. This way I can savor it.”
Why, yes, he is an engineer - why do you ask?
At first glance, I read that as “seedlings”, and I thought, “You planted them in your garden?”
If you successfully end up with M&M trees, I really really want to know! 
Ha! I was still thinking that until your post, Monstre.
