That crew (4) of call and respond fudge makers, on that marble stone working with special copper spades, out of the copper kettle… such a really special fudge makers show. SInging and dancing, interactive. ---

Moderating: This thread is lacking context. I happened to have just read the post/thread that inspired it, so I’ll be nice and add the context for you: > [@WTF is the deal with touristy spots and fudge?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/wtf-is-the-deal-with-touristy-spots-and-fudge/985759/44): > > This is (or used to be) called “loafing” the fudge. I still remember my first childhood trip to a fudge shop where the candymaker demonstrated this process and remarked of her co-worker, who was taking care of packaging and selling the end product, “So you see, she works all day and I just loaf.” I thought that was the. Funniest. Thing. Ever. But @Blindmellowjelly , it’s your job to do that when you start a thread, and if you don’t, the kids will likely just close your threads. (And get annoyed with you.) Next time, give enough context that other posters have some ideas what you are trying to write about. ---
