Wow, so talking about really obscure niche insider... Impressed that somebody got that reference and explained it!

Don't be absurd, no one's rich enough to just hand out eggs in this economy.

Outside of the USA, many people can afford eggs. Don't generalize from a shithole country.

They have gone down from the peak, and they're well stocked again, but I think they're going to stay at ~2x the previous prices and call it inflation instead of permanent price gouging.

How much is a dozen or flat of 30 where you are roughly?

Varies. Today in California I saw $6.00 for a dozen basic to $12.00 for a dozen free range organic.

Dang. Here in Canada there was a sale for $5.25 USD for 30.

The farm down the road has a freezer in a little tin shed with a money jar sitting on top and ten eggs are 2.50โ‚ฌ, 3โ‚ฌ for large ones. So... you guys paying vastly more?

Reminds me of a school Halloween event where you are blindfolded and have to go around feeling "brains" and "eyeballs" but it's just like spaghetti and grapes and stuff.

I refuse to eat my scrambled eggs from a man pocket.
Oh, a comma. Sorry about that.

I'm guessing it's a joke about the Halloween candy tradition they have in the US.

Oh, right, that holiday.

Without context, this is just... fine? As long as they wash their hands first.

Still, most trick-or-treaters probably expect something other than a handful of scrambled eggs.

I agree.

Halloween is the context.
I said it was fine without context.

As in, on a normal day where people are not trick or treating (and therefore expecting candy)... it's fine.

As long as they wash their hands first.

Tbf, I wouldn't want scrambled eggs that have been close to body temperature for long. That sounds like a terrible gut infection waiting to happen.
