Funfact: My mom was the head honcho of the Mississippi Valley Girl Scout Council for many years and I think Girl Scouts are awesome so if I can admit Girl Scouts are adorable little grifters, we all can.

I HAVE BEEN CALLING MY GIRL SCOUT COOKIE OF CHOICE "SAMOSAS" WHEN THEY ARE "SAMOAS" - EVEN AS SAMOSAS ARE MY FAVORITE THING TO GET AT THE INDIAN RESTAURANT - AND IT NEEDS TO BE ANNOUNCED I AM STUPID.

The net of this is I deserve neither Samoas or samosas, obv.

Attached: 1 image @[email protected] Thin Mints for my son (he's got food allergies, so they're the only ones he can eat), and Samoas for me! Although if someone was selling samosas, I would get those too. 😁

@GrimmReality my dream birthday meal is mimosas, samosas, and samoas. But my birthday is in September and it is literally impossible to refrain from eating the samoas for that long.

@GrimmReality Cookies, ranked: 1). Samoas 2). Tagalongs 3). Thin Mints

@holly_actual THEY CALL THE CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER ONES TAGALONGS?? I missed this part likely because I never get those because A) those are awesome but B) It is too much like ordering Girl Scout peanut-butter cups for me to be comfortable with it. This is ENTIRELY irrational as I know they are just as much cookies as any of the other models, but I HAVE DRAWN THE LINE AT CANDY COOKIES, dammit.*

*Please do not read this as if I am trying to make sense of any it.

@GrimmReality easy solution: order both when you're present with either. you'll always be wrong half of the time but you'll always be right the other half. and you'll come out of either situation with something tasty no matter what.

@cobie Well, that's not the solution, per se, to me being stupid, BUT I am going to do what you suggest anyway because it is win-win.
Show threadAlice McFlurry Jan 21, 2023
@GrimmReality most people call Samoas “Samosas” so you’re fine, but we’re going to need to have a conversation if you start calling Thin Mints something gross like “Skin Mints.”
Show threadGrimm Jan 21, 2023
@Alice Hey hey if you buy the super-extra-cheap knock-off version cuz you're broke, they'd be Skint Mints.

@GrimmReality

Well.. we did offer the superior product. Who wants stale popcorn in unwieldy monster-paw-size tins, when you can fit five scarfably-delicious boxes in a single armful!
