Story 1:  The New “2020 Scent” Candle Takes You on a Journey Through This Year’s Memorable Smells

I’m not sure WHY anyone would want to relive the past eight months . . . but if you do, here’s something to help get you there.

A novelty candle company in England called . . . ready for this? . . . Flaming Crap has created a candle called “The 2020 Scent.”

It’s a layered candle that will take you through four of the big smells of 2020:

  1. Banana bread.
  2. Hand sanitizer.
  3. Wood, for the DIY project and home improvement phase of quarantine.
  4. And, quote, “budget aftershave and earthy essence,” which is supposed to make you think of “Tiger King”.

If you’re interested, the candles sell for $20 on their website . . . order fast to make sure the candle arrives in time for Christmas.

Story 2:  Starbucks Is Releasing Its New Holiday Cups . . . Get Your Reusable One Free Today

Starbucks is releasing its annual holiday cups tomorrow, and normally we’d joke about how people will be OUTRAGED over them, but right now we’re all maxed out emotionally.  So we’ll focus on something more benign:  Free stuff.

If you go to Starbucks TODAY and order one of their holiday drinks, you’ll get a free reusable cup.

The holiday drinks are the usual ones, like a Peppermint Mocha and Chestnut Praline Latte.

But because of the pandemic, you WON’T be able to bring that cup back to the store to get discounts on drinks this year like in the past.  They still aren’t allowing any reusable cups for safety reasons.  So you’ll only be able to use it at home.

As for the rest of their holiday cups, there are four designs this year.  They’ve all got red, green, and white patterns, but as usual, none of them actually say the word “Christmas,” which is usually good to get at least a few people riled up.

Go here for more.
Here’s a picture of the four holiday cups and here’s the free reusable cup.

Story 3:  A Guy Pulls a Gun on Someone for Questioning His Manhood Size After He Revs His Engine

Congratulations to this guy, who is now making national and possibly international news for proving JUST how small he is in the pants.

Back on Saturday night, a 21-year-old guy named Dustin Kouns from Ramrod Key, Florida pulled up behind a guy and revved the engine on his Jeep.

The other guy looked at him and said, quote, “You must have a small [rhymes with stick].”

And Dustin responded by pulling out a GUN and pointing it at the guy.  He also held it sideways, like he was in a ’90s action movie.  So that doesn’t exactly DISPROVE the manhood size theory.

The other driver called the cops, and Dustin was arrested for felony aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, carrying a concealed weapon, and dealing in stolen property.

The stolen property was the gun, because Dustin admitted he bought it, quote, “on the street.”
