Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Ginger, come on over and share the best seat in the thread. Oh, sure, you can bring the cookies...

Oooh, good thing my boss is back from training in the wilds, it means we should be getting girl scout cookies soon. I can barely wait. Except that the deli at work makes the most unbelievably scrumptious white chocolate/macadamia nut cookies. Teh yum.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

All my co-workers were selling Girl Scout cookies for their kids last week. I bought so many boxes. It will be impossible to resist the temptation for long.

I've seen Girl Scout cookie ice cream but what's Big Gay Pirate cereal?

A co-worker has two huge Great Danes that scared the hell out of a sweet little Girl Scout that came to his door. He felt horrible about it so he bought twelve boxes from her. He said she ran down the sidewalk to her mom yelling, "Mom! He said he wants to buy TWELVE BOXES!!!"

I should see if he wants some company tonight...

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Man, when I was a GS I TOTALLY should have burst into tears at the dogs.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

It's not slutty if he shares his cookies.

I would have peed my pants, I was scared of anything larger than a toy poodle at that age. Very brave girl to actually stand her ground and sell those cookies!

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I just calculated, and I think I sold Girl Scout cookies for at least ten years, if you count the years that I went along with my older sister when she was selling them. (She figured that people would be less able to resist buying from little cute kid who opened with, "Hi! We're thelling Girl Thcout Cookieth! Would you like to buy thome?") By the end of my time as a Girl Scout, it had pretty much gotten around to, "What? Cookie time again? Do I havta?"

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

and also Big Gay Pirates cereal.

Ye gods, how much do I wish the cereal really WERE named that?!?

A *lot,* that's how much.

And *why* am I watching Willy Wonka on cable yet again? Though it makes me think -- something seems mighty unsavory about all 4 grandparents in one bed together.
