      I want to point out to anyone afraid of saying they love candy corn-

      You fall under the Black Jellybean/Black Licorice rule. Every single person who hates candy corn will pretend there’s something wrong with you, but we all need one of you in our lives to take the candy corn/black jellybeans/black licorice. We may pretend to mock you, but without you, we either have to eat that garbage ourselves, or feel really guilty throwing it away.

      Just remember, mockery over these things comes in the same form as mocking a beloved sibling. You might think we’re picking on you, and we are, but we love you.
