2. Anything with one of those @(&$# smiley faces that doesn't have a bullet wound in the forehead
is to be avoided.

So, I vote for the 60s one.

Plus the candy is better in the 60s one.

Yep, the Razzles puts the 70s display over the top. :9

5. No Ice Cubes
Edited on Sat Jan-12-08 06:19 PM by EstimatedProphet
Ice Cubes were the best chocolate in existence in 1970.

I can't accept either of these without them.
