Just Don't Get It

[email protected] is a community for things that you just don't get or understand. It's a community where you're welcome to be the opposite of the smartest in the room. Ask questions about things of which have perplex for years like "why was seeing a pig run a consolation?" or "why don't we shoo our space in to the sun?" and for those of you not comfortable with asking questions, even those like "why is going to bed with your socks on even though you have a spouse a thing?", you're welcome to be part of this community too and answer questions. The only thing I ask is that you be and not a condescending prick.

I originally said "You're free to post text posts, screenshots or memes." but it seems to be mostly text. Feel free to change that with your posts.

You ever been to a shop that has almost zero stock and the shop keeper will tell you they're awaiting a delivery, so you look at the empty sweet rack and in the back corner, you'll see Turkish Delight? It's like these are popular enough that shops order them and yet I never see anyone buy them. They're like the mystery of the ages.

Buy it often. Both with icing sugar ocassionally but mostly in the form of Fry's chocolate coated Turkish delight at the local shop for 30p or whatever it is

I dunno what to say to that. I think I've tried it twice, both times I understood why it's always available everywhere.

People have different tastes .. I could eat those Fry's ones until I felt sick lol, one of my favourite sweet things.

It's awful. The name makes you think it's gonna be something special, but then its just a shitty gummy with powdered sugar on it.
