    Quick question - when you guys see "Blam" do you pronounce it "Bee-Lam" or just "Blam?" #roundup

    And it just so happens to look like the Master Sword. Neat.

    On the topic of Jack-o-lanters though, how do you keep them from rotting after you carve them? I just made one for the first time (which is sad because I'm 22 years old) and the thing was all gross and nasty after two days. #pumpkinpalstake

    I think nearly any of us would light up with a sword stuck in us, but the depressing part is that we only wasted ten bucks to impale the poor All Hallows Eve squash. Perhaps if they sold it for three figures the pumpkin could know that their life was truly appreciated.

    Nah, screw it. Damn pumpkins always scaring me this time of year deserve the depressing reality of a ten dollar sword in the - er - skull. #pumpkinpalstake

    @B-low: That would be blumpkin pie, which takes the regularly depraved blumpkin, adds a pie tin, and plenty of coprophagous shenanigans. Basically, 1 girl 1 tin. I think this is made worse by the fact that there are actually names hitting below 4 syllables to identify these acts. #techpumpkins

    This would at least give my Jack O'Lantern a fighting chance to survive the squirrels.

    And by squirrels, I do mean the little grey tree rats that decimate my pumpkins by the end of the evening

    @Geisrud: A BB gun and some decent aim should do the trick. Also, a handle of Jack Daniels helps the time pass by, but it tends to negatively affect your aim.
