In the fog and in the rain
Through the pleasures and the pain
On the step outside you stand
With your flowers in your hand,
My Apple Scruffs
Through the pleasures and the pain
On the step outside you stand
With your flowers in your hand,
My Apple Scruffs

Get the them apples mug.An unresolvable and ultimately useless comparison.
A comparison which is just as easy to support as it is to contest.
Something which is both the same and different simultaneously depending on your point of view.
alt. *Apples to Apples*--Though not the initial meaning, occasionally the phrase "apples to oranges" is used to dismiss a "distinct difference" noted between two things which are not distinctly different. IE the neverending opinion wars often attributed to brand-loyalty. These are based on imaginary chasms of vast differences which cannot be proven or conclusively settled. IN other words these things are not really very different, but people desperately want to believe they are.

When someone says "you're comparing apples to oranges" they're really saying "Why are you trying to compare those things? You can't compare apples to oranges, they're just not the same thing."
They're both sweet. They're both fruit. They're both the same. But they're not. One's an apple, and one's an orange. Is that all there is to it? One tastes better. No it doesn't. Yes it does. How do you decide which one everyone likes more? How *can* you decide?
A great example of silly apples to oranges is vanilla and chocolate.
Invalid apples to oranges comparisons would be like comparing Bush or Clinton to Lincoln, Jefferson, or Washington. You can't, so don't.
Examples of useless "nonexistant-vast-differences" apples to oranges comparisons are Macs and PC's, Fords and Chevys, Nikons and Canons.. In reality this is mostly "apples to apples" comparison.
Apples to oranges usually ends with each person believing or feeling whatever they do and leaving it at that. That's all there is to it. Neither can really ever be better or worse, and nobody can win the argument.
In the end, the whole point of making the comparison is to illustrate: there is really no point in making the comparison.

Get the Candy Apple mug.The first weekend in May when the entire town of Winchester, VA goes crazy. Vendors come out and set up carnival-style games on the Old Town Mall aka Midway. Apple Blossom is also notorious for being a drinking holdiay. There are parties everywhere and drunk people stagger around the town like nobody's business. The town sets up fireworks and there are three parades on Friday, Sturday, and Sunday. Schools close normally for a few days for an extended weekend and the Apple Blossom colors, pink and green, are everywhere. It is supposed to celebrate the blooming of the apple blossoms throughout the land...fuck that lets just get drunk.
Last year at Apple Blossom I filled my camelback with beer and walked around all day on Midway with friends playing ridiculious carnival games.
