If you don't like cookies, you're a communist

...and other topics discussed during a 45-minute conversation with moose:
  • Googling "witch + Timmy"
  • spinoff of a popular Fox drama with brooding teenagers set in Canada: "The BC"
  • *gobbling turkeys*
  • stalkeresque = nailing a dead woodchuck to someone's door
  • would a cross between a gerbil and a hamster be called a gerbster or a germster?
  • is Canada a joke?
  • pirates
  • scurvy
  • children's television programming
  • there's a new frat on campus: Phi Beta Omicron = Piss Brendan Off
  • *Michael Jackson imitations*
  • laughtracks

The real challenge is to figure out who brought up which subjects. Cookies to anyone who wants to try...unless, of course, you're a communist.

Scurvy like a merchant!

1. "Passions" should be marketed as a comedy instead of a soap opera... ;-D
2. "Gerbster"... germster is too misleading. "Gerbster" also involves the same number of letters from each word... very Equal Opportunity/PC.
3. I wrote a paper about pirates for a history class once... "History of the Sea"... best history class ever!
4. Laughtracks = egoboosters for people who shouldn't be in comedy?
5. Here's a better one than children's programming: young adult "literature" (???)

p.s. Are people who don't like cookies communists because cookies are all-American (like apple pie and hotdogs at baseball games), and anything not all-American is communist? Or is there a "deeper" logic than that? ;-)

I think that you shouldn't be so biased against hamsters. Why can't it be called a hamil or a hambil? Clearly only giving suggestions that begin with "ger" are showing favoritism. And you call yourself a role model!!

In response to Jen's above comment, I think that hot-dogs at baseball games are only all-American because no one else is trashy enough to eat ground mystery meat at their national pastimes. Like, I don't see the Italians chowing down on some dogs at the opera, or the Brits politely asking someone to pass the relish at the Globe.

And your conversation with moose just goes to show that it all comes back to pirates and/or scurvy and/or pirates WITH scurvy. Go eat some limes!!

I think Hamil is too similar to the actor's name in Star Wars. (Mark Hamill?) Plus, it sounds like some sort of prescription anti-depressant medication. As does Hambil...a little bit, anyway. Gerbster it is!

And there was no logic to the anti-cookie=communist statement. I was thinking about cookies as a thank you gift and the dialogue went something like this:
B: Maybe cookies. Everyone likes cookies.
M: Yeah, if you don't like cookies...
B: ...you're a communist.
So there you have it. Mystery revealed.

Arrrrrr!

For the record, I don't like hotdogs. But oddly enough will eat hot weiners. Must be the day-glow-orange meat. (?!?!)
