New Topic Too

Post by _canpakes »

I'm taking subgenius' challenge up on introducing a new topic while not discussing any of the prohibited subjects, whatever those might be.

This is certainly new, yes? And very topical.

Discuss.

I would prefer it if you were to list the forbidden subjects, so I know what to talk about.

I cannot do that. But I do like cinnamon rolls.

All right then, let me ask you this: what's better, chocolate or cinnamon?

Going with cinnamon, at least if it's on a bun. But I've made a few excellent 'poor man's crepes' by using melted dark chocolate with common tortillas.

Now, should the swirl of a cinnamon bun spin to the right, or to the left?

It depends on what hemisphere the roll is made in.

Aha. This could account for why cinnamon rolls made in the States spontaneously unravel when brought to Australia.

There is only one tidal event that can unravel a handmaid's tale. Period.

Your topic is certainly indicative of the list of topics capable of being discussed by most posters here without bashing republicans, conservatives, or Trump.....and your topic is spot on for the modern platform of Democratic/Liberal ideas.
