If wax strip Twizzlers are a candy and toxic waste non-pink Starburst are a candy, Peeps is a candy.

In retrospect, Starburst makes 100% sense as the Sheep answer. It's a pleb candy, but everyone fucking knows about it. I didn't consider it only because it's trash and didn't even cross my mind. But if I had really thought about bags of halloween candy or what was around in high school, Starburst would have been the clear answer.

Other than “Hole” which is truly one of the funniest things I’ve ever experienced, this has been my most entertaining season to run as a shepherd so far.

I feel like your spreadsheet should have a "top amazing answers" column. There's gotta be a way to showcase those answers at the end of the season. Maybe have an image AI spit something out.

Hole, Norte Chico, and a few others have re-defined what a "wrong" answer is.

Yeah, it appears me being out of town/forgetting week 3 was a bad week to miss. I'm beating redandwhite by 107 points in the weeks we both participated, but even with a drop week on my zero, I'm losing by 46. How in the hell does that math, math?!

Good point. I didn’t think in terms of Halloween.

Answers due Thursday this week.

1. A day of the week Thursday (submission day)
2. A fruit used in cocktails Grape (I, like some others, read this as "fruit cocktail", which I rarely eat. If I had read it as alcoholic cocktail, I would have imagined whole fruit over the juice, and would have picked cherry).
3. A non chocolate candy (not Skittles) Starburst (same deal with plum last week, candy aisle proximity and alliterative)
4. The number of texts you send in a day 10
5. The number of actual hours of work you do in a week 40-
(I don't do 40, but I didn't like any of the other landing points more, and 40 is the standard).
6. A TV series with an unsatisfying ending GOT
7. A food delivery app Ubereats (had Doordash and changed it because of what I thought was a recent massive advertising push by Ubereats)
8. Do you own a physical photo album: yes or no? (This is one where I assume I am close to the median age here and that most people my age and younger think like me.)
9. Have you ever fired a gun: yes or no?
10. A brand of shoes an older man might wear New Balance (total guess, I barely know what brand of shoes I am wearing if they aren't running shoes)
11. A pro sports team with a bird mascot Cardinals (because there are two, I thought it might be cheating to not specify)
12. Dead _________wrong. (My train of thought here was, "My answer will probably be wrong, so why not make it literally 'wrong'." For some reason, the google autocomplete was Dead Fingers Fungus).

Maybe it's just me, but my walk around shoes are my old running shoes after a spin in the washing machine.
 
Bartender I spoke to while reading answers said "blackberry."
