I literally have a shirt that says "Pumpkin Spice Everything", that I wear to get my first PSL of the year.

Pumpkin spice evokes great child memories for me and a reminder that fall is coming

I hate the taste and smell of pumpkin, and I'm sick to death of the oversaturation of it.

The Pumpkin Spice flavor should only be used as an air freshener.

It's 3 spices which can be added to other types of squash or sweet potato. Pumpkin has mild flavor & aroma w/o the spices.

No major reason. I just hate the taste of pumpkin. However, I am great with a pumpkin spice candle!

Belongs in pumpkin pie - all the rest is just marketing hype.

I wish I did but a good quality emerald is so expensive. Yes, there are "created" emeralds, but unlike diamonds which look great, the created emeralds do not.

To continue my story (this is 3/3), I was very envious when one of my best friends got faux emeralds for her birthday and wore them first. However, I was happy to wear mine anyway. My friends bulled me because I was a "copycat" even tho they all knew I had received mine first. #meangirls!

My parents got me faux emeralds as my first pair of pierced earings and I looked at them in the box until my mom could find the "self-piercing" rings that slowly worked into your ear over a couple of weeks. When I proudly wore my birthstone earings to school my best friends bullied.

My birthstone is Amethyst. I like it. I like the color. But one, I prefer Emeralds. And two, I don't wear jewelry anymore.

No, I have no rubies, and I wept mock tears for my husband's benefit answering this.
