    My roommate and I did "stupid roommate Christmas" this year. I tried SO HARD to find a peach candle to buy her, but it was useless. That's how I learned the true spirit of the Candle; it must be given before it can be given away. You cannot buy it.

      I’m having an Etsy shop customize one for me. She was actually pretty excited about doing it. I’m going to get a few just to have. I think they’ll end up costing about $12 or so each. Not bad for a magic candle.

    My boyfriend thought this was too oddly specific to be true. Then I took out a medium-sized plain peach pillar candle from Caldor's I received as a gift in 1997, and he nearly died from laughing. He now also believes in the One True Candle.

      Took me a good 5 seconds to get my voice together to thank her. It's now in the closet.

      Also, my mum once got a gift from a friend (something knitted) that had a name pinned on it, and realized it was the name of the person who gave her friend the gift. She'd put the name on there to remember, so she didn't gift it back to the woman who gave it to (or probably made it for) her, but then forgot to take the name off.

    I found one last year for my friend. We always sing this song as a gag to each other. I gave it to her and she was howling with laughter. My fiancé was like now you need to give it back to her next year. He got me a peach candle from IKEA a couple of years back too because of this sketch.

    'so just give the candle, don't overthink the candle....we all get the candle, we all give the candle, that nine dollar candle, that almost new candle, the gift of having a gift to give away.' brilliant writing, and the music was really good too, and the acting, props, costumes, fur, was fab. And the honesty.. 'passed to every single woman, and most gays'. it is true, and fun... and makes us laugh at ourselves, without shame, too.

      No, it's "almost new". It sounds like "new", it's captioned "new", and the terp signs "new".

    A friend of mine unironically got me a candle for Christmas this year and I immediately sent her link. It's not that I don't appreciate the candle (as one of the "and most gays") but I couldn't NOT think of this song the second I opened it. This song has become a holiday tradition for me now.
