Which brings me to the matter of Peeps. Are they a chicken-shaped marshmallow, or a marshmallow-shaped chicken?

Either way, Peeps taste nothing like chicken.

I am not familiar with the term peeps, therefore cannot specify. What I can specify correctly on was my next encounter, The Hall Of Mirrors.

I was insulted and threatened inside, and another waste of money.

Someone who doesn't know about peeps? Where have you been living? In a cave? North Korea? A cave in North Korea?

You are correct, I do not know about said product, however my locality is not of importance. You have expressed a double negative, the result of course being that a positive has been created and therefore the intent of the question becomes unclear. If as I expect the sentence was designed not specifically as a direct question, but more over as a statement then I would advise proper question.

Still doesn't explain why anyone would pay $150 for a tofu apple, let alone why said apple-shaped marshmallow doesn't taste like toffee.

Using, "scary guy" I assume you mean frightening male. I made no mention, I do not understand.

Furthermore I fail to comprehend how reflection could/can be classed as scary within locus of fairground. Let me explain : I entered into what was described as the Hall Of Mirrors. Once inside I observed precisely Eight mirrors hung to a cheap wooden walled interior, and roughly guessed the dimensions of the mirrors and length of walkway. I was not alone, there were two people of the male gender, 1 child 1 adult. As I looked into the first mirror, the child (boy) at 3rd mirror said to the adult (man) 4th mirror "look daddy, I'm taller than you!" This caught my interest. A-hem ....

'Twas a joke, which apparently went right over your head. Now that I'm beginning to understand the nature of your posting, I'll refrain from further attempts.

It is not a matter of trust, It is about proper understanding of the posts, even if communication dialect is lost. Back on topic: The child said "look daddy I am taller than you" A-hem NO. This is a virtual image which is distorted due to the object, you that is, being reflected by a convoluted non-planar surface. The mirror thus has a variety of focal planes , the locus of which are determined by the sigmoidal functions of the mirror at any given point of its reflective indeces. the apparent image is therefore determined by variable laterally inverted parallaxis . The Man then swore at me and threatened violence. I left the fairground.

Is it a capital offense to intentionally overcomplicate basic communication nowadays?

Adept is just here on a windup, he makes posts using as many words as possible to say nothing and see who swallows the bait.

(Seeming as opposed to) I can conclude nothing entered my premises, and went over my head prior to and during time you posted, taking into consideration said joke was at a height greater than the building I reside in, I fail to understand how you would observe this matter, do you have my exact co-ordinates?
