funny enough, someone set out a bag of starburst on a communal table today at school. when I got to it, there were zero strawberries, a handful of cherry, a good amount of orange, and what looked like all of the lemon left.
Sounds like starburst heaven. I will take ALL the lemon and orange.
I have a major sweet tooth, I will only turn down malt candy and butterfingers.
Aren't you supposed to choose one?
And I actually would put malt candy and butterfingers high up in my list, but we definitely have different chocolate tastes. I despise dark chocolate, and dislike frozen chocolate to the point where I can't order chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream for the reason that the chocolate chunks are too hard.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
I never order cheesecake, but this is tied as my "favorite"
Original cheesecake with butterfingers and Reese's baked inside and layered on top, all on top of a chocolate crumb crust and with a peanut butter dollop on top.

Wait... me too. So maybe we're aiiiight on sugar candies. We'll just fight on chocolate.

I can't choose just one. I am the worst at the candy isle and the movies. I end up with like 4 different kinds of candy.
The only candy I can't stop myself from eating are those stupid Cadbury mini eggs. The solid chocolate with the crunchy shell. M&Ms do not compare. They aren't even in the same league. Easter is coming!
I feel as though it's important to note that if we're taking into account the tropical nature of a deserted island, chocolate is the wrong choice. Before you know it, your Milky Ways will have withered into a chocolate soup, with the nougat as your last line of defense.
Fruit Candies would stand a better chance of surviving the conditions.

I broke a crown on a chunk of chocolate in ice cream, so it's a wise thing to avoid.

I forgot about those! And they definitely win for me too. I've ordered them on ebay in the off season before...no shame.

Something like that. The lady surprised me last week by making V-day reservations for us at a fancy restaurant. I was under the impression that she'd be paying since she had set it all up and that's generally what one does when they're taking their SO out to dinner, so I started making plans to do something for her for V-day also. Earlier this week I found out she was expecting that we'd be splitting it, and that led to a fight which still isn't 100% resolved. Then Mumford announced a concert in our area so we got pit tickets for that this morning, and a little while ago she texted me saying she wants to see Tycho. I don't regret the Mumf ticket at all but I've only listened to Tycho like once. I love her to death but she prefers to spend on entertainment and be stressed about money all the time, whereas I prefer to live more within my means so that I'm not living paycheck-to-paycheck. That dynamic is hard to navigate sometimes.
I'm also a little salty because I worked almost 40 hours of overtime last week to go towards the road trip we're (supposedly) saving up for, and between those three things I have to find an extra $200 in my budget. Makes me feel like I'm pissing my hard work away, and I'm getting stressed.

That does sound stressful. Especially if you guys are saving for something together. Have you talked to her about this? Does she have more discretionary income than you, or does she just NGAF about budgeting?
When you guys do shows, do you generally split the cost? I think it's okay to tell her a show/dinner/whatever just isn't in your budget right now. Would she be okay with hearing that?

True, at first, but if you go the DINK route they can actually be quite profitable.
We're heading there, in September or October hopefully.
Hate to get all /r/personalfinance on you, but I hope y'all are able to sit down and have a conversation about this. Money can really screw up a relationship. For the record, I'm on team Jaz in this situation. I've learned I have a lot more fun doing fun stuff when it's already paid for, not waiting on a credit card bill somewhere.

Yea we usually buy our tickets separately. She'd be fine with me saying I can't do something, but I get FOMO and don't want to NOT do things with her. That's totes my responsibility and I'm not blaming her (and I told her that), but I still get stressed.

Invest in a cookbook from whatever chef/author/cuisine you both are interested in. Cook your way through it together. Have prepared meals for the next few days.
You'll learn new skills together, have fun in the kitchen together, and save money because going out to eat is expensive.
If you go this route: save all your veggie trimmings (except anything that is super pungent, like asparagus or broccoli), chicken bones, etc. and make stock. That will end up also saving you money at the grocery store.

What are veggies?
Theyre these weird things that grow in dirt. They come in lots of pretty colors.
