Yankee Jar Candles

I'm a Yankee jar candle freak. Right now I'm burning the "trick or treat" candle. Buttercream & candy corn. My office smells great!

I hate food scented candles. There are a couple of Yankee Candles that I like but the best candles that I have found ( that aren't $50+ ea) are Voluspa candles. I had a Prada candle once that was $90 but I can't justify spending that on something that gets burned to nothing. Also if you like nice and unique scents try Lampe Berger burners, they are expensive and so is the scent but there is nothing else like it. Under the Fig Tree & Gardens on the Rivera are my fav. Berger scents.

Yankee candles really don't put out a lot of scent (although some are more fragrant than others), so I doubt most people would consider their smell a "stink bomb." People who drench themselves in perfume of cologne are much more offensive.

"Yankee candles are for poor people."

What "poor person" would buy scented candles at Yankee Candle? If they were so inclined to waste their money on frou-frous like scented candles they'd get them at the Dollar Store.

Poor old pudgy, pig-faced Vester probably thought Yankee candles would provide a touch of class to his crummy little apartment, in addition to masking the odors of cat piss and cat feces. What a loser!

Almost every thread in which Vester went HAM on all things white and lesbian were shut down within a day of their origination.

The one thing I will never forget was his response to something positive which I said about our president. He said, 'keep his name out of your mouth you fat lesbian. Crackas have no right discussing black folks' business."

Are the Lampe Berger really worth getting? I like to have scented candle once in a while, and usually just pick up some here and there, but if they're that good and the scents are decent, I might indulge. I googled the candles; are they a pain to use and refill? Thanks

R55 he hardly signed his own name and there's no documented proof it was him but here's the math:

flaming + single + cat lover (- until he killed them in a forest) + crazy + yankee candles + fat + ragey + obsessed with racism = Vester / the DL 'RACIST THREAD' troll, who never posts since the unpleasantness.

by Anonymousreply 58September 30, 2015 8:41 PM

"Stanky Candle - " is all my dear departed friend was able to choke out as she stumbled from the store gasping for breath, and then fell. Though CPR was initiated, it was too late for her. Her collapse was complete. The valiant passerby attempting to save her almost succumbed to the whiff of air offgassed from my friend's respiratory system. This thread brings back too many sad memories. I am crying as I type, remembering her as I last saw her, waxen and brittle in her casket.

R58 et al 'Vester' is all over the thread which has reappeared, due to the OJ Tapes special on Lifetime tonight and tomorrow, about OJs gloves and why did the defense insist he try them on. He is at his racist evil best slamming white women for ruining black men's lives in multiple posts and he is called on his racial hate numerous times. The thread originated in May, so the timing is perfect. I think we have the smoking gun.

Those candles (all artificially scented ones, actually) are so, so bad for you. Very toxic and the smoke carries the artificial scents all over your home/office/wherever and it lands on your walls, furniture, etc so you get to keep breathing it in. The more you burn, the worse it is. Plus they just smell gross.

Oct 30, 1852 When the cemetery of the Innocents at Paris was removed to the outside of the barriers, the buried corpses which had accumulated to the depth of 60 feet, were found, to a great" extent, apparently converted into fat. The substance of the skin, cellular tissue, and tendons, all the sott parts, and even the bones had completely disappeared, leaving only the fat. which, resisting longest the influence ot decay (oxygen), remained in the form of margaric acid. This human fat was employed to the extent of many tons by the soap boilers and tallow chandlers of Paris for the manufacture ot soap and candles. The French are a people of fine sentiment, and they certainly carried the quality to a charming point of reflection in receiving light from candles made out of the bodies of their fathers. We loathe the cannibal, but civilization has features which, if not rendered familiar, would be as repulsive as the practices of the savage
