Two random thoughts

In someone's journal, I read a short rumination on the origins of fish slapping and whether it was some Christian-based thing about being hit with the Ichthys and a reminder to be nice to one another. I really wanted to post that the Internet tradition of fish slapping is really from the Monty Python Fish Slap Dance. *amused* I guess some people have to put a religious slant on everything...

Eating an entire package of Peeps just because you are hungry is not a good idea and you will not feel all that well later. This has been a Public Service Announcement.

It will make you round like kitty!

Mmm, peeps. I'm glad someone else likes them. My friends think I'm insane.

I love 'em. And you know what's even better? Let them get stale. An aging period of about three days to a week is best. They get all kinda hard and chewy...

*looks around*

What! They're GOOD that way, dammit!
pantswarrior: Spock and Bones go "WTF". Unsurprisingly, at their captain. (wtf)

Hee, Laguna-icon! :D

That was about my reaction too.

When I see "l33t" I think of "leek" and then "leak" and the whole things just has new meaning... Hey, I'm odd like that.

Peeps try to kick their way out of your stomach. I've noticed this behavior. Quite disturbing.

Tell me about it, they were trying to get out last night, I swear...

Marshmallows - great toasted over an open fire or barbeque.
Peeps - Inflammable.

You work it out. ;-)

Put one in the microwave. It's fun.

Where do you get your supply of peeps? Around here, the only time you can get those is Easter--not that I have any particular craving for them, just curious.

From the pharmacy. Apparently Peeps are no longer limited to Easter, and you can get Halloween Peeps and Fourth of July Peeps and Christmas Peeps etc. See them all at http://www.marshmallowpeeps.com! :D

Oh! So peeps are not just for Easter any more. heh heh

Then I'm sure we can get those around here--just I don't usually go shopping for peeps, and probably didn't notice.

*gets trampled by sampede of peep shoppers*

"That'll learn him," Arafel says smugly.
