Okay, I’ll take a stab at this. [Libertarian’s Mod Hat On] The OP was about whether the “cookie dough” in cookie dough ice cream can be used to bake real cookies, but he failed to even prove that this ice cream actually exists in the quantum universe, and hasn’t even proven his own existence. Furthermore, the OP stated that he counted the cookie dough chunks, using the blind assumption that 1+1=2, and 2+1=3, etc. He has failed to prove that 1+1 does in fact equal 2. To the OP: remember, one’s own temporal biases delineates quantifiable perception, which precludes cognitive consciousness – please don’t forget that. Don’t do this again.

[Rue DeDay’s Mod Hat On] I’m moving this thread – all the way to Cuba if I have to. Don’t try to stop me. Which reminds me of the day I first learned to dance the Locomotion. Little Eva was playing on the hi-fi (I told her to get down off of there before she broke something). I was moving my various body parts around the room like an arthritic epileptic, and my dog, who was watching me with those cute widdle brown doggy eyes of his, decided that this would be the perfect moment to present the amusingly-shaped squeaky toy a friend had given him to my maiden aunt, who had just stopped by for tea… _…14 paragraphs later…_ …So then I said to the police officer, “Funny, it’s never done **that** before!” And then he shot me. -Rue. On second thought, I’ve decided to start a whole new forum for this thread, titled “Clancy’s Intermittent Wheezes”.
