Trick Birthday Candles Cool or Evil?

BDBopper · 09-20-2007, 12:27 PM

Even though my Birthday party is not until tomorrow, my mom baked me my favorite pie yesterday and I got to blow out candles. Unfortunately they were the trick candles. I don't like them at all. They crackle and spark and make me think that something is going to explode in my face. Not that a face full of pie would be bad, it's the loud noise I don't want. Needless to say trick Birthday candles make me nervous.

So what do you think? Am I just plain nuts?

Trick Birthday Candles Cool or Evil?

Old. Though I admit I always laugh when they're used.

But I am reminded of when the trick birthday candle factory burned down. The fireman had to come back three times to put out the fire!

Thank you and goodnight!

Good, and evil.

My wife used THIRTY of them on my cake one year. They set off the smoke alarm and covered the top of the cake with wax.

Good times I tell ya, good times.

Awesomely evil. No one's used trick candles on me, that I'm aware. Or else they just weren't very good trick candles. Nothing really seems to stick out in my mind about them as a personal experience.

My Dad thought they were hilarious when I was a kid, I did not.

On the other hand it's better than the candle I got from the boys last year, it played the death march! The adult boy is as bad as the little one and this is what happens when they put their heads together

Shiny Fire!!

But alas, evil.....

And you can see them coming a mile a way with the sparking. That's when I don't blow them out, I spit on them. Then I get all the cake to myself. I'm evil, too!
