Sorry all: I have no idea what this thread is about. My little post up there just made me look like a doofus, eh? But, perhaps someone could explain it to me so I’m not in the dark anymore?

Wait, upon further reading, I figure this has something do to with either A) The movie “American Pie”, or B) The song “American Pie.”

Either way, I’m still lost Wally.

ARG, they’re all just avoiding the real issue, which is that PI ARE SQUARE.

You knew, I haven’t been able to eat chocolate cream pie since Thanksgiving.

That is the day I explained feltching to Lion’s uncle while he was eating a slice of chocolate cream pie with whipped topping. He never missed a bite.

When this message board is a topic for family discussion during a holiday meal, does it mean you spend way too nuch time here ?

I’m sorry, I’m having a real problem with the idea of equating the “choice” of whether or not to kill a child with the choice of pastry selection.

Pro-life idiot? Yeah, ok, call me an idiot. I believe that a child has a right not to be vacuumed out of it’s mother’s uterus. Ever hear of a thing called adoption?

But if you want to put the ice cream on the side instead of on top of your pie, more power to you. Key lime rules.

I have seen no mention of cherry pie here.

You people, with your high and mighty apples & chocolates! You just toddle on with your lives, completely ignorant of the helpless little cherries. Are you so caught up in the apple-pie-cause-of-the-day that you have forgotten the cherry? George Washington did not forget the cherry. The cherry is the forgotten patriot of Piedom!

_Come on,_ folks! Wrap yourself in a big ol’ flag, and eat a cherry pie for freedom!

I’m ashamed of all of you. Taking an issue such as abortion and making light of it. You should all be —

HEY!

All right! Who threw the fucking pie in my face???

What? I came in here awaiting a spirited, civilized debate, and what do I find?

Pie.

PIE.

PIE!

You all should be ashamed of yourselves, advocating the sinful eating of pie! Pie is the poor, pathetic peasant of all pastries! Pie eating is dirty, immoral, and above all UNNATURAL!

Now, I don’t have anything against pie eaters. One of my best friends in high school liked pie. Which is why I don’t mean it personally when I say that when you pass on, you will go to the **fiery pits of heck** , where your watches and jewelry will be eaten by ravenous sloths while you look on in terror and you will be poked in the arm with warm lego men for all eternity!

But it is not too late. Cast off the shackles of your twisted love of pie and embrace the true lord of all creation:  
Quiche.

If I have to go to GQ and make a new thread just to find out what you guys are talking about, I will. But, it would be much easier if one of you could explain what pie has to do with abortion, or reproduction, or whatever, since this thread already exists.
