When I go to festivals I always want to stick my head in the cotton candy machine, and swirl it around until I have a nice big Marie Antoinette hairdo.
The vendor never lets me; something about liability or some other lame excuse.
I guess I’ll have to wait until I go to France.
I hope cotton candy wigs are still in fashion there.

Buying cotton candy during the revolution must have been freaky. A human head rather then the cardboard cone? No thanks!

I walked through a department store this weekend and was attacked in the fragrance aisle and sprayed with something called “Pink Sugar” that made me smell like cotton candy for hours.
If I had a cotton candy wig, though — it would have been way cool!

A cotton candy wig will be sticky. But still delicious.

I have a bissel bagless vacuum you can stick your head in… The dirt spins around until it looks like SCARY cotton candy. I hate emptying that thing.

Just make sure to carry a tall umbrella.

Thanks for the comments
sweetiegirlz: I get nauseous when I think of cotton candy and a vacuum bag (or bagless vacuum) at the same time.
finicky penguin: umbrella! no a big plastic bag will be fine: maybe from the dry cleaners.
pat: I think I’d always be checking my cotton candy wig for small children who got too close.
jimsmuse: I thought I got sprayed walking through the perfume section by mistake, but it was only dogshit on my shoe. What a relief!
Turkish Prawn: I like that image. “Off with their heads! Oooo! Save some of that blue cotton candy from the bourgeoisie for me!”

I’d bear the ants for an ever so temporary cotton candy wig. Wouldn’t last long.
