The best is almost always full size candy bars, though everyone's personal favorites are different.

As for the worst, people might rag on the orange and black peanut butter things, candy corn, or circus peanuts. I personally like them all and I feel most of the hate is memetic.

The real bad candy? Peppermints. Even worse and strange? Peppermint candy canes.

Sure, I like them in December, but seeing those mixed in with other candy is an insult and reminds you of Christmas creep. It's a breath mint. There might be one freakish kid who likes those hard minty disks of Christmas flavor around Halloween, but really, no one is excited about these restaurant give aways. Even hating on the candy you don't like is part of the Halloween experience, but peppermint just feels wrong in a trick or treat bag.

Pic of the back

 

I'd like one with a roof rack and if it had a trailer hitch that would be a bonus. I prefer longevity and ease of repair over looks. I plan on painting it to look like a jazz cup like I did with my old cop car (pic included)

If you help me find a good one I'll name the crudely painted wizard in going to put on it after you

It's not super old, but the original BioShock is one of those games that you can point to and say "this is art". It's an amazing exploration of Ann Rand, capitalism, addiction, art, deregulation, unions, and greed, all with the most beautiful art deco levels. The mechanics of the powers you get are tied into the themes and your choices of how to acquire them are in themselves a statement of the self vs others. It's well thought out from the ground up, from aesthetic choices to narrative ones, and one of the few games that absolutely nails it.

I enjoy the gameplay of the second one even better, though I feel the attempt to explore collectivism doesn't fit as well by using the same motifs as the first one, the dlc Minerva's Den has the most tragic exploration of identity and the singularity out there.

The third is fun to play but I think they were trying to explore too much of everything at once, between America, racism, classism, quantum states and everything else, and unlike the first two, the mechanics of the plasmids didn't really lend anything to the story. The dlc is fun, but rewrote a poignant lesson from the base game and watered it down.

I came here to say this! These games are highly underrated. Amazing story and world building, actually having to be sneaky even with low level enemies, amazing music, these were always my top faves.
