Excuse me?! How dare you accuse Bacon of killing the flavor.

Bacon enhances the flavor, of EVERYTHING!

Whats that you have there? Oh, ice cream, here is some bacon.

What some bacon in your Orange Juice? OF COURSE I DO.

Bacon flavored beer? YES

I think MPP is a kids toy. Usually a female kid, having raised,two of them.

I am kind of disgusted by the idea of grown men playing with MPP.

I think some explanation of Bronies is called for here. Disclaimer: I am not a Brony. I've never even watched My Little Pony:Friendship Is Magic, although I have enjoyed other works by the creative team behind it, and I have studied (and occasionally participated in) other, similar types of ~~geekdom~~ fandom, such as comic books and anime.

When Hasbro began production of the TV show My Little Pony:Friendship Is Magic, they intentionally planned to target a larger demographic and make something that both kids and parents would enjoy. So while the style may be 'girly', the writing is meant to work on multiple levels and for a larger audience. Now, geeky guys being who they are, if an animated show is well-written, it's going to attract them as fans. Admittedly, there are some genuinely freaky people who are scary - you find that in every form of fandom. Yes, some Bronies collect the toys, and yes, some of them play with the toys, but most of it is about being fans of a TV show.

By the way, does anyone need a Powerpuff Girls lunchbox? I bought it for my girlfriend's daughter, but we kind of went our separate ways, so I put it away, and - no, really! It's not mine!

We're over halfway into February. My children's drama group chose an elaborate two act "Whodunit" mystery, including audience participation. Their production is in May. We're just now assigning parts... Gonna be a long two months.

Don't have Auto Correct.

I do have the red squiggly lines that appears under misspelled words.

A crab-cake sandwich with some bacon-bits.
And the K3 could be left behind, drooling.

Can I come over to your house for a sammich?

Please?

Yes, they would get it themselves, but they don't have thumbs.

I have always said that about Looney Toons, Road Runner, and Bugs Bunny. Lots of stuff that goes right over kids heads.

And a K3 is out of the question.

Cholesterol pie.

Nice.

And from the article, "Closer to hamburger than a real hamburger".

Oh yeah!

Then there is this:

hociR will not be amused.

Bacon is above reproach, always.
