Your cover would be blown the second you dropped one on your foot. Those things HURT. Am I speaking from experience? I’m not on trial here.

Mixing desserts is a fraught endeavor in the best of circumstances, nearly always diminishing the individual components. Cookies and Cream bars themselves are the rare gamble that pays off -- adding a third selection to the mix is the sort of hubris that leads to divine retribution.

Used to be you couldn’t pass fifth grade civics without being able to recite “four score and seven years ago, our forefathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to activate interlocks — dyna-therms connected, infra-cells up, mega-thrusters are go.”

Ridiculous? Nonsense! In this house we believe that all transformers are cars except for the one that's a pencil, that cyclops's eye beams are made of hot heat, and that the punisher *should* smile more.

You mean someone would make an entire statement or production solely in the service of japery? Surely I, or one of my many fine internet associates, would have heard of such a thing happening.
