Skittles Stats - I must be crazy. EST. April 2009 - New Riddles

EST. April 2009.

Am I the only one that opens up a 2oz bag of Skittles and then sorts them by color into lines before eating them? Like this:

I started a Society6 store and got the idea to do a tribute piece of art for my store. So now you can buy a poster, laptop skin, and iPhone/iPod skin with an Original Line up on it.

I added the text for added effect of the blog.

TheInfamousBaka on Apr 17 '09 at 2:18pm

I don't, but that's because I'm lazy. If I have like 10 left I usually arrange them into a pretty pattern.

againstbound on Apr 17 '09 at 2:19pm

Yeah, that's weird.

nathanwpyle at gmail.com on Apr 17 '09 at 2:19pm

The prevalence of raspberry is dangerously high

Chengui on Apr 17 '09 at 2:19pm

you are alone....although I knew a girl who complained to M&M's when blue was released becasue the bag she got didn't have any blue. She got a bunch of free vouchers or something.

bortwein on Apr 17 '09 at 2:21pm

I seem to have gotten a lot of Berry Punch in this bag.

canceromega on Apr 17 '09 at 2:24pm

One time I took a random number of bags of Peanut Butter M&Ms from every Target in the central Austin area and calculated the probability of getting any given color of M&M in any given bag. There were a lot of M&Ms.

alexmdc on Apr 17 '09 at 2:26pm

I seprate them and then eat them one by oneof each color then mix the colros to try and get different tastes, you're not alone

spacesick 2 on Apr 17 '09 at 2:29pm

that's bonkers!

bortwein on Apr 17 '09 at 2:31pm

UPDATE: How many are left?

0 Red, 1 Pink, 1 Purple, 3 Green, and 4 Blue

alexmdc on Apr 17 '09 at 2:32pm

also people thought it was weird I put ketchup on each and one of my fries one by one as I eat them.

bortwein on Apr 17 '09 at 2:37pm

yeah, don't drowned your food. I think I remember some old commercials about that or something.

2 days later

bortwein on Apr 20 '09 at 1:09pm

Today's bag of Skittles Posted above. With 2 anorexic Skittles. WTF.

TheInfamousBaka on Apr 20 '09 at 1:12pm

Tropical greater than Wild Berry.

brentendo on Apr 20 '09 at 1:20pm

I do that all the time! and I love skittles no end! in fact I really need to go buy some now

bortwein on Apr 20 '09 at 1:32pm

Thanks for your opinion TheInfamousBaka. Wild Berry is the only flavor they have in the vending machine here at my office.

littlem on Apr 20 '09 at 1:35pm

i just pour the whole bag into my mouth. all at once.

nah, i'm a sorter, too!

bortwein on Apr 20 '09 at 1:39pm

I haven't eaten the anorexic ones yet. They have me slightly concerned.

NomadSlim on Apr 20 '09 at 1:40pm

that's awesome. It would be a cool MSCE blog.

bortwein on Apr 20 '09 at 2:02pm

NomadSlim: I don't think it would be good for my health if I ESSE (Eat Some Skittles Everyday) for a MSCE blog, but I get what you mean.

mismonaut on Apr 20 '09 at 2:08pm

If I get some skittles and sort them, may I post the results here?

This blog could become the one-stop shop for Skittle Statistics Information.

TheInfamousBaka on Apr 20 '09 at 2:09pm

Wild Berry Skittles are better than no Skittles I suppose. :)

tracerbullet on Apr 20 '09 at 2:13pm

skittle me this, skittle me that

Bramish on Apr 20 '09 at 2:15pm

What the fuck is a melon berry?

mismonaut on Apr 20 '09 at 2:19pm

It is a genetically engineered watermelon.

mismonaut on Apr 20 '09 at 2:19pm

I hate watermelon flavored candy.

juliejeremiah on Apr 20 '09 at 2:26pm

If you mix Phillips Butter Ripple Schnapps and Lime Crush, it tastes exactly like green skittles.

It also works with Orange Crush, I have yet to try it with Grape Crush or Strawberry pop but I bet it works with them too. It makes little sense, but it's delicious.

EricaTheRed on Apr 20 '09 at 2:30pm

Tikimasters on Apr 20 '09 at 3:15pm

Who doesn't sort out skittles. I don't line em up but I always sort the ones I have in my hand. and um...wild berry IS better than tropical! Those chocolate ones they came out with not too long ago suck balls though

bortwein on Apr 21 '09 at 6:35pm

no stats today. perhaps tomorrow I'll get another bag.

jess4002 on Apr 21 '09 at 6:37pm

mmm, skittles.

bortwein on Apr 21 '09 at 6:38pm

also can someone tell me what actual word is "polypz" in non-lol speak? I usually can get the words on lolcat pretty well but that one escapes me.

jublin on Apr 21 '09 at 6:38pm

i'm going to buy skittles now.

iPear on Apr 21 '09 at 6:38pm

ur wird.

Steve The Great on Apr 21 '09 at 6:40pm

polyps

it's a colonoscopy joke.

bortwein on Apr 21 '09 at 9:19pm

ah ok, thanks steve.

ArikaGranger on Apr 21 '09 at 9:26pm

HAH! I do that too! and then I eat them in groups...lol....

like for the second pic I would do the purples until I could do purple and blue, then do purple and blue until i got to purple blue and green and I would keep going until I eat one of each color at once

.....I am a weirdo

ArikaGranger on Apr 21 '09 at 9:27pm

ArikaGranger on Apr 21 '09 at 9:30pm

woah...double post...bad threadless

bortwein on Apr 22 '09 at 1:48pm

New bag today. Heavy on the Raspberry. Just how I like it.

bortwein on Apr 24 '09 at 1:39pm

New bag today. Heavy on the Strawberry.

4 days later

bortwein on Apr 28 '09 at 1:49pm

April 28th bag added. Lots of Melon Berry today.

TheInfamousBaka on Apr 28 '09 at 1:52pm

Wow that's a lot of Melon Berry!

wotto on Apr 28 '09 at 2:00pm

LOL at your weird ways.

funkie fresh on Apr 28 '09 at 2:19pm

awesome

bortwein on Apr 28 '09 at 4:02pm

It looks like I'm averaging 59 to 60 Skittles per bag with the occasional wtf skittles in there.

Phiffer on Apr 28 '09 at 4:06pm

I really dont want to count each flavor to see the current number of each but i really want to know.

Phiffer on Apr 28 '09 at 4:09pm

They need to bring back the Carnival Skittles. they had the best flavors Cotton Candy (baby blue), Bubble Gum (pink), Candy Apple (light yellow), Liquorice (red), Green Slushy (green)

bortwein on Apr 28 '09 at 4:27pm

ok here are the stats so far:

Total Number of Skittles (5 bags): 299

Total Number of Red Wild Cherry Skittles (5 bags): 49

Total Number of Pink Strawberry Skittles (5 bags): 57.5

Total Number of Purple Berry Punch Skittles (5 bags): 61

Total Number of Green Melon Berry Skittles (5 bags): 73.5

Total Number of Blue Raspberry Skittles (5 bags): 58

TheInfamousBaka on Apr 28 '09 at 4:28pm
