Am I the only one who thinks "Peeps" are disgusting?

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

It's not Easter yet, but there are valentine's peeps out. My friends can't get enough of these puffed marshmallow treats from Satan. I, on the other hand, think they're downright disgusting. And I like marshmallows!

What are your opinions on this extremely important issue? ;)

[StopTheMorans]

1. do you hate puppies and babies too?

:shrug:

[HeyManThatsCool]

7. What about old people & sunflowers?

lol- I just thought the last post was funny & wanted to expound on it

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

9. no!

Just peeps! :D

[StopTheMorans]

10. that confirms it; there is no God

[mark414]

72. hahahahha

that's hilarious

[wildeyed]

2. Even my kids dislike them. n/t

[HeyManThatsCool]

3. No you aren't. Let's start a support group

I think peeps taste like absolute shit

[ashling]

36. Sounds like a valuable resource

Peeps are evil!

[Deja Q]

51. A peep support group = peep sadomasochism group. Like my website...

see post 47. :D

[dolo amber]

4. Ooooh! HypnoToad's gonna get you!!

:o :spank:

:D

[GreenPartyVoter]

5. They are cute to look at but not to eat

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

14. that's right

I appreciate the creativity involved in shaping them, and whatnot... but they're like a rock in your stomach when eaten.

[motely36]

6. I don't like them.

But then I don't like gummy whatevers (worms, bears, etc.) either. :)

[Zomby Woof]

8. WE AGREE!!!!!!!!!!

However, I love Satan, so lay off! :evilgrin:

But yes, Peeps are gross.

I also don't like the slang term "peeps", so give me double credit! :D

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

11. HAHA, awesome

We agree on 2/3 counts. ;)

[mcscajun]

24. Peeps can only be eaten stale...

"peeps" used for "people" makes me crazy.

[ChoralScholar]

70. oh geez....

it pisses me off to hear things like

....hey you know, all the peeps I know live there man.....

[seaglass]

12. I only like the stale ones! Fresh Peeps are bad. n/t

[HeyManThatsCool]

26. Is there such thing as a FRESH peep?

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww

[seaglass]

30. The non-chewy kind that are more like stale cheese curls.

Which I also love.

[mcscajun]

27. Exactly! I slice the plastic on two sides and wait a week.

Then they're just right.

[July]

76. I thought my brother was the only one who liked them stale. nt

[asthmaticeog]

13. They have uses other than eating.

Leave the package open for awhile and they get hard like bricks. Throw them at someone.

While they're still "fresh" and squishy, you can lick 'em on the back and stick 'em on things. Like cars that have just been detailed, for example.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

16. Let's say I go to a Hummer dealership.

Will the H2 withstand the peeps stick test? :shrug:

[asthmaticeog]

29. The paint job might not.

But actually, bologna slices work better. Wait for a hot day and bologna a few Hummers on the hood (re-read that sentence and see if it sounds any less absurd the second time). If the bologna isn't found for a good while, it will probably have etched a little circle into the paint.

I used to be a bit of a bad kid. :evilgrin:

[RetroLounge]

15. I Poke holes in the plastic and let them sit for days

until the marshmallow gets hard.

Then, I can eat them...

RL

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

19. Doesn't that have the potential to hurt your teeth?

Ouch.

[RetroLounge]

49. Yes, but like everything in life, you gotta time it correctly.

They need to be just starting to get hard, yet still be chewy.

Too hard and you'll chip a tooth.

After that, they make better projectiles and weapons.

RPP = Rocket Propelled Peeps
IEP = Improvised Explosive Peep
P-16 = Milirary issue Peep firing Rifle

I could go on...

:hi:

RL

[Phentex]

71. I do that too. But I can eat them fresh as well.

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmm...it's just marshmallow!

[Plaid Adder]

17. Have you seen the Peeps Research site?

http://www.peepresearch.org

I wouldn't say this site necessarily preaches hatred of Peeps, but it shows a certain willingness to abuse them. It's hilarious, though.

C ya,

THe Plaid Adder

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

38. I have

I wish I'd thought of that first.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

18. You must face your fear, Luke.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

22. they're cute

I mean, I appreciate the artistry, but... to eat... ugh...

[Menshevik]

20. I can't stand them

[Zomby Woof]

21. Peeps & Hydrox sandwiches!

With Ovaltine! :bounce:

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

28. That's a different way to induce vomiting

Next time I swallow a poison, I'll be sure to test that out.

[Cadence]

23. You're not alone. The Peeps suck!

Regular marshmallows are good though. :D

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

25. We agree

I love regular marshmallows, especially in hot cocoa... mmm

[mcscajun]

32. Has anyone tried those "high-end" marshmallows?

In or Out of Cocoa?

31. PEEPS are indestructible!

http://www.cnn.com/US/9804/10/fringe/peep.science/
Scientists: Soft, chewy Peeps nearly indestructible

April 10, 1998

Web posted at: 10:30 p.m. EDT (0230 GMT)

ATLANTA (CNN) -- Inspired by a sugar rush after consuming several of the ubiquitous Easter confections known as Peeps, Emory University scientists James Zimring and Gary Falcon decided to try to find out just what it was they were eating.

Using everything this side of a nuclear device, these intrepid scientists conducted experiments to discover just what would dissolve a Peep. As CNN's Ann Kellan reports, what they found was that these are some of the sturdiest birds not found in creation.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

37. How come Jerry Falwell hasn't flipped about the purple ones?

:shrug:

[Zomby Woof]

39. And why...?

Isn't there a novelty song called "One-eyed, One-Horned, Flying Purple Peep Eater"?

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

41. That was pretty bad, Zomby

LOL

[JohnKleeb]

40. he probably hasn't heard about them yet

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

42. Plus they don't carry pink purses...

I have a feeling they're under surviellance, but until they start shopping for Prada handbags, Falwell won't waste his time.

[JohnKleeb]

43. Falwell, god another reason for Virginia to be a joke

I can not stand that man. I still wanna apply at Liberty as a joke.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

44. You can't!

You're on the communist watch list... they will reject you.

[JohnKleeb]

46. Yes but when I shave, they won't be able to tell hahaha

Seriously, right now, I look soooooo washed up.

[Deja Q]

50. How dare they come up with a peep smoking a ciggie? I DID THAT!!!

:cry:

[GHOSTDANCER]

33. Roast em over an open fire.You will learn to love them. n/t

[JohnKleeb]

34. not disgusting but not the best thing ever either

[The empressof all]

35. I've met a Peep I didn't like

The cookie dough flavored gingerbread men Peeps Santa put in my daughter's stocking at Christmas were truely disgusting. Even she, (a true Peep lover through and through) couldn't eat them.

I prefer my Peeps stale with a crust thank you very much.

[loudestchick]

54. I actually developed an addiction to the gingerbread man peeps...

uuummmm...marshmallowy!

[tyedyeto]

About the only thing they are good for..LOL

O8)

And, be on the lookout for "Peeps liposuction" and "Peeps wrinkle removal" coming soon! :evilgrin:

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

52. dolo amber warned me about you!

I should have listened!

[Deja Q]

55. LOL! I do hate it when people warn about me, it takes away the surprise.

:7

[ET Awful]

58. You have issues, you know that right?

Not that that's a BAD thing :)

LOL.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

65. I love HypnoToad's issues!

[Left Is Write]

59. No, you are not.

I remember when Peeps were confined to Easter only. Then we had Halloween Peeps, Christmas Peeps, and you're telling me we now have Valentine's Peeps? Can Indepenence Day Peeps be far behind?

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

61. What about Martin Luther King Jr Peeps?

I don't even want to go there...

[JohnKleeb]

64. hah I wonder what those would be like

I'd try the Veterans Day one though, mmmmmmmm hardtack, kiddin.

[yellowdogintexas]

62. I hate peeps, and I hate marshmallows too.

guess that makes me unAmerican?

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

63. No, just makes you smart

Marshmallows are good in moderation

PEEPS ARE NEVER GOOD.

[BellaLuna]

67. I don't like them either

How someone can prefer those over chocolate is beyond me.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

68. They make those vile things for Valentines Day, too?

Have they no shame?

[Biased Liberal Media]

69. No you are not. They are disgusting

Gimme a Cadbury Creme Egg please.

[Butterflies]

73. I LOVE them!

I eat the ones from everyone else's Easter basket (in my family) because no one else wants them. Those yellow chicks and pink bunnies are as much a part of Easter as jelly beans. :-)

[scarlet_owl]

74. I just got done eating a Valentine's Peep.

It was good.

[sniffa]

75. oh, "peeps"?

i thought you were taLking about my boyz.

yeah, peeps are f'n nasty. :puke:
