I'm going to make a some comparisons between our hobby of model building (Dragon specifically) and Girl Scout cookies.

We all love model building and everyone loves girl scout cookies.

We can't stop buying models... Just like we can't stop buying cookies!

Just like we can't buying models and cookies, we can't stop eating or building them either!

The cookies this year are smaller, yet cost more for the same amount in the box! This is just like Dragon! Giving us less in the box for a higher price!

Are we gonna stand for this?! Are we gonna let them do this to us?! No! I say, no!! We're not gonna eat this dreck anymore !! WE WANT SOMETHING ELSE!!! Builders of the world arise!! You have nothing to lose but your cookies!!! (courtesy Hawkeye Pierce of MASH)


This is a comedic post by the way, I hope you see that... Not trying to start a revolt against DML and Girl Scout cookies...

I just bought 2 boxes of Girl Scout cookies on Tuesday! Didn't care what they cost....

Did you know you can only get the mint ones in November up here in Edmonton?

Crazy!?

Wow... Maybe the Canadian government has a sort of embargo on Thin Mints that only opens in November?

Interesting. Definitely stocking up on Girl Scout Cookies. We've jokingly nicknamed them "Little Green Crack Dealers". Heck, their parents even call them that sometimes!
