Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

Also, who'd win in a fight? Donut or cupcake?

Eclair? Isn't that like a hybrid?

Upon reflection, it seems like I'd prefer cupcakes, but I probably enjoy donuts more. It's sugary and fried.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Depends. Is it a cake donut or the fried krispy kreme kind?

Now tagless for your comfort.

I think the donut would kick the cupcake's delicious ass.

I'm watching the Vagina Monologues on HBO.

Do beignets count as doughnuts? Then gotta go with the donughts. If not, I back the silent dark horse, as long as there's chantilly creme.

I had beignets on Tuesday, for my dad's bday. Each family member got one. I was stuffed with shrimp czarina, but one was NOT. ENOUGH.

I want some more. Like a zillion more, with tons of the creme, and strong coffee. Except I had too much guac and am kinda overtuffed and uncomfortable. And I am nigh well vampire-proof, I put so much garlic in the guac. Which I now call guavacado, because I misspoke earlier, and it makes me laugh everytime I says guavacado. Hee.

I still have leftover cinnamon rolls!

Kat, I asked because a friend of mine who was teaching some undergrads psychology got ZERO backup from her department when she tried to fail some kids for plagiarizing in her class--even though the university honor code states that's what happens.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

The answer must depend on one's tolerance for moistness (with apologies for the word). Cupcakes are dry. Donuts are fatty and delicious. Incidentally, there aren't many locations around anymore but spudnuts (donuts made with potato flour) are pretty darn good.

Cupcakes win, obviously. For they are tiny cakes, and usually covered in buttercream frosting. Mmmm, buttercream frosting.

We don't have any neighborhood email list that I know of. But we have neighbors who check in on people, and who apparently take great amusement in telling the pretending-to-be-tough-hoodlums that I'm a witch and can curse them. Which, okay? It makes the p-t-b-t-hs be very polite to me when I walk by them at the park.
