I, too, am tapioca pudding.  
After looking at the cellulite on my ass, I guess that is understandable.

I am an apple, a dreidel, tapioca pudding, a sock, a pocket calculator, a toaster, or a tape dispenser.

Does that mean I have mulitple personalities ?

I am also the rather large-ish pocket calculator. This thing is frighteningly accurate. Kinda.

I chose to kill the televangelist. They’re both a couple of crooks, but the dictator doesn’t hide behind a front like he’s trying to help people. Plus, a dictator’s speech would probably be more tolerable than a TV preacher.

Guess that’s why I’m a curling stone.

I agree with **miamouse** about chocolate. Hey, I just ate a 136-gram bag of crispy M&Ms for breakfast! :eek: (I’d never tried them before, and they are good… but chocolate is NOT normally what I’d eat for breakfast)

Hmm… it’s sort of right, yet sort of not. Oh well…

I killed the televangelist too, but I’m a sock.

Taken out of context, that’s on par with “If it wasn’t for my horse, I wouldn’t have spent that year in college.”

Um, I think you are a curling stone, since that is the only one that you didnt mention. I am a dreidel, but I cant figure out how to tell what it means. Can anyone help me out? Briminator?

More tapioca, and, after much consideration, I killed the televangelist, although the high school bully was in the running. _Tapioca pudding_?!! Oh well, it could be worse. EMode still insists I’m a chihuahua. [shudder][prolonged shudder]

Sheepdog? No. I trimmed my bangs.
