    So… come around here much, er…

    Remember when you could get the good Girl Guide cookies? Those were the days.

  3. Krankor Says:

    Were Girl Guide cookies ever any good? I remember them as being kind of dry and crumbly, and the vanilla ones were pretty skunky.

  4. sporkless Says:

    No way man, the vanilla ones were teh awesome.

    Then again, don’t go by me. I like broccoli salad.

  5. Ignatius F. Pig, Esq. Says:

    You can still get Girl Guide cookies, and they’re better than ever.

    I like broccoli salad cookies.

  6. Krankor Says:

    You people make me sick.

  7. Ignatius F. Pig, Esq. Says:

    Krankor, do zombies have any fear of Girl Guide cookies? I’m thinking we could use them as airborne projectiles of death and - oh, shit. They’re already dead. Never mind.

  8. Krankor Says:

    I believe that zombies can be distracted with Girl Guide cookies. The brain-flavoured ones.

  9. Ignatius F. Pig, Esq. Says:

    You know, as the someone who occasionally needs to use a chain saw - to cut tree limbs and defend against zombies - I wish to retract all the remarks I made back in the 80s ridiculing the Poulin chain saw when it was offered as a prize to the Labatt Player of the Game. I mean, you just can’t get through life without essentials like a pickup truck, a shotgun and a chainsaw.

    Somewhere today, I bet, Don Mattingly is happily cutting branches on a woodlot, and I’m left twisting in the wind.

  10. Krankor Says:

    I feel bad for all the players who never had an opportunity to win a chainsaw. Tim Foley. Nelson Santovenia. Rex Hudler. Those poor bastards are out there somewhere, living their miserable lives and chopping wood with carving knives or sharpened spatulas.

  11. Ignatius Pig Says:

    I hear Rex Hudler, once he started raking in the big bucks as a colour commentator on TV, was able to scrape up the dough to get a decent second-hand chainsaw. But Foley, I know for a fact, has gone insane trying to cut a tree with a piece of shoelace.

    Dang, I love open-thread posts.

  12. Krankor Says:

    FP Santangelo, sadly, wanted a chainsaw so much that he resorted to performance enhancing drugs, eventually earning him a coveted spot in the Mitchell Report.

    Never did get the chainsaw, though.

    I’m sure all guys who write comments are teens or even younger. If you are older, than shame on you!

  14. Ignatius Pig Says:

    Who the hell is this Mike guy? Of course we’re older, numbnuts. Do you think teens are old enough to know about the Poulan chainsaw for the Labatt Player of the Game?

    Sheesh. Common sense isn’t common anymore.

  15. Krankor Says:

    I think that “mike” is actually a comment spam bot, given the peculiar URL associated with his name.

    I’m sure he won’t mind me changing it to something more appropriate.

  16. Ignatius Pig Says:

    Unequivocally, the comments in this thread must continue. Indefinitely.

  17. Krankor Says:

    You are a man of deep convictions, Mr. Pig.

  18. Ignatius F. Pig, Esq. Says:

    It’s my way.

  19. Ignatius F. Pig, Esq. Says:

    Hello? Hello? Mario?

  20. Krankor Says:

    Mario’s not here, man. Just us chickens.

  21. Ignatius Fenton Pig, Esq. Says:

    Further punting the comments-close date into the bright, infinite future!

    My life is so exciting, I can barely stand it.

  22. Krankor Says:

    So do you farm potatoes, or are you involved in the traditional Anne industry. What else is there to do there?

  23. Ignatius Fenton Pig, Esq. Says:

    There is nothing else to do here. I farm potatoes.

    Actually, I also grow wicked raspberries.

  24. Krankor Says:

    Nice. I bet you also smuggle non-refillable containers.

  25. Ignatius Fenton Pig, Esq. Says:

    Comments for this post will be closed in 3 days.

    Like hell they will. Victory is mine!

  26. Krankor Says:

    Where’s that “mike” guy from a dozen comments back? He was great. No, I was great.

  27. Ignatius Fenton Pig, Esq. Says:

    Indeed, Mr. Palmer.

    Wait! That’s it! The Mike guy from a dozen comments back is actually Jim Palmer!!

  28. Krankor Says:

    That makes total sense, in a completely nonsensical kind of way. Love ya, Jimbo.
