Two Things

#1 - DO NOT purchase, or drink, any Jones Soda Co. Halloween novelty beverages from Target. Just don't. Oh, they sound quirky and tasty, sure: Candy Corn, Strawberry S'lime, Caramel Apple, Scary Berry Lemonade. But unless you have run out of vomit-inducing medicines in the house and need to rid your body of harmful chemicals, don't add this to the mix.

#2 - Children can sense things quicker than their older counterparts. A coworker brought her 3 year old daughter in to work today. When prompted to say hi to everyone, the little girl smiled in a truly angelic fashion and said, "Hello you knuckleheads". Yes, indeed. 2 minutes in this place and she already knew what chumps we were. And neither Art Linkletter nor Bill Cosby hovered near with a microphone.

"Halloween novelty beverages from Target."

You'd think that would've been the giveaway ;)

hahaha, do you think I could say "Hello You Knuckleheads" to people when I first meet them? It probably wouldn't go over well.

The saddest thing is expect about a million hits from people searching for 'halloween novelty beverages from target'.

I don't know what it is about that store, but every single week, I get hits from people looking for 'target vanilla mints'.

Ashley, for kids calling someone a 'knucklehead' is cute

Teenagers, it's plain rude.

Adults, it makes you look like you have learning difficulties.

too funny--perhaps the child had been drinking some kind of novelty beverages of her own? or heard the phrase when her mother had been drinking?

Man, I've been waiting for a Candy Corn flavored beverage for some time now. I'm disheartened by your post.
