==From [[Laser Soup]]==
Have you ever wanted to eat lasers but found their natural texture too unwieldy for any practical culinary procedure? If so then you are either a mad scientist, Emeril Lagasse, both, neither, or an offspring of the two. Or perhaps.. a demon?
Seriously though, Laser Soup is an extract of the natural flavors from lasers into a rich stock which, when combined with other things like meats, veggies, CD jewel cases, and pictures of grandma from before she had a stroke and her face got locked in that horrible, horrible grimace, can be a truly delectable soup!
Laser Soup was instantly catapulted into the global spotlight when unheard-of indie-rock band Spoon sang its praises on their equally unheard album "A series of sneaks." Spoon has a large homosexual following but you dont have to be gay to enjoy laser soup (just kidding, you do). What's that? oh okay ill do it after im done typing this article
Laser Soup can come in a variety of flavors depending on the time-era from which you obtained your lasers. If you got it from a long time ago and from a galaxy far far away your lasers will probably be green and go zaap! If you got it from the future aboard the star trek enterprise your laser will probably be totally boring and have some insipid social commentary it tries to shove down your throat (delicious!). If you obtained your lasers from my kitchen then rest assured I know who you are and I've already called the police.
In conclusion, george washington was a hippie who grew and smoked hemp almost every day and should not be on the dollar bill.
==The End of Osama Bin Laden==
[[Image:Blast_thumb.jpg|frame|right|Nuclear Bomb Blasts Osama's hideout]]
Osama was bombed yesterday after a [[B-52]] bomber dropped a nuclear bomb at his hideout somewhere in the Pakistan-Afghanistan border. After the explosion, Osama is believed to be perished in the explosion. The area is now an extremely highly radioactive area that even protective suits cannot withstand the radioactive material.
==From Gurnig==
''Mo0 note: Article was marked for deletion multiple times, with more junk being added each time the guy removed the tag.''
Usage:
'You complete and utter Gurnig!'
'Oh, Gurnig!'
A gurnig is a small housefly which emerges from the faecal matter of humans and farm animals after eating partially digested food and stomach lining. They have a voracious appetite, and have to be removed by pumping ethanol through the intestines.
Gurnigs first emerged in Wales in the 1300's. A text from the time says:
''' The gurnyge is a scourge upone the lande, and hath caused many sheepe to be destryed by the imbalance of the huomores, and they had to be bledde to death.'''
It is unknown who wrote this text, but is suspected they were an important landowner from the time when the gurnig was at it's worst.
Modern treatment for gurnig infestation is a lot less painful than the ancient alcohol treatment. The doctors flush the patient's intestines with high-pressure water. However, US forces in the field who have suffered from gurnig infestation have used coca-cola, but this has only been documented once:
'''OH GOD OH GOD OH JESUS!'''
The soldier in question was returned to duty a week later with burns inside their intestinal tract.
Across the world, gurnigs have been largely ignored due to a lack of information. A book is being written by the Reverend P. Smith entitled: '''gurnigs:What a Pain in the Arse!''' with the aim of showing people the real danger presented by these evil little creatures. Unfortunately his views include cures which are not accepted by the mainstream. One cure (which is for desperate times, out in the wilderness) involves inserting the nozzle of a squirty cream cannister up the rectum of the patient and using up all the cream. The gurnigs are extremely lactose intolerant, and die within two hours, but the resulting infections are not worth the 'cure'.
'' '''The continual deletion of this page is a mystery, as it is a useful resource for those infected with gurnig eggs.''' ''
'' THE ADMINISTRATORS OF THIS WEBSITE ARE WORKING WITH THE ILLUMINATI IN HELPING THE GURNIGS, WHO WERE CREATED BY A SECTION OF THE ZIONIST LUCIFERIAN PAPIST OPUS DEI ILLUMINATI ARMIES, AND BY DELETING THIS THEY SIMPLY REVEAL THE FACT THEY WANT THE GURNIG PLAGUE TO END THE WORLD AND BEGIN A NEW WORLD ORDER FOR THE SURVIVORS!I URGE EVERY SANE RIGHT-THINKING PERSON TO GRAB A GUN AND KILL EVERY EVIL ZIONIST ILLUMINATI JESUIT THEY CAN FIND!
YET AGAIN THE ILLUMINATI TOOLS HAVE ATTEMPTED TO REMOVE THIS. BY DOING SO THEY WOULD REVEAL THEIR ILLUMINATI AGENDA. DO NOT ALLOW THEM TO DO SO, THE AUTHOR OF THIS IS A GENIUS!

==From [[Strongbow Cider]]==
Strongbow is the Awesome Mythical Cider that has secret magic properties. It is said that once every kebab and curry night, the terrible, evil force of Blackthorn will try its luck at overpowering all tastebuds everywhere with its foul, polluted stench. But then, out of the darkness, Our Saviour Cometh: Strongbow, liquid gold.
Fight the good fight. Drink Strongbow.

== The Early Life of [[Brian Nichols]] ==
[[Image:Penguin-thumbnail1.jpg|left|thumb|[[Brian Nichols]]' family]]
'''Brian Nichols''' was not of [[African American]] ancestry, but was recently found to be of [[penguin]] ancestry (please don't be surprised! I have more to tell you). In the cold lands of the farway continent [[Antarctica]], a cute little baby penguin was born. He loved to eat stuff that his mother had vomited out and especially loved the fish-flavored parts of it. His mother had named him Brian. However, one day young toddler Brian decided to go out for a swim without his parents' permission. Even though he was immediately and thoroughly chastised for his mischievous actions, Brian would not listen. [[Image:BrianNichols.jpg|thumb|Brian Nichols after his transformation!]] He obstinately kept going to the beach and swam and swam happily without his parents being happy. Then, Brians' mother and father decided to hire the well-known British sorceress, [[J.K. Rowling]], to temporarily disable his swimming ability with a spell. However, Mrs. Rowling had not practised her magical trick very well and instead, did another one. His parents watched in extreme fascination and horror as their young son suddenly transformed into the dreadful, polluting, anti-penguin habitat, anti-environmental [[human]]!!!!!! Brian's father and mother immediately abandoned him and dumped him into the ghetto sections of Antarctica. When he turned into a teenager, he joined the Bad Penguinz gang (the gang accepted him because he was very bad in behaviour). With the gang of big, bad penguins, he commited penguincide, stole snowmobiles ([[motor vehicle theft]]), burglarized the local thatched huts, and sprayed graffiti on the walls (in Antarctica, the penguins marked their property and sprayed graffiti by spraying their droppings, not spray paint). "Delinquent" Brian constantly got into trouble with the Antarctica Police Department and was often jailed in the underground dungeons with the ice worms.
One day, Brian got J.K. Rowling to come back to Antarctica. Mrs. Rowling was assigned the task of bringing a curse upon the Ice Ghetto gangsters, who were the rivals of the Bad Penguinz. Unfortunately, she performed yet another act of monumental error. As the world of ice began to disappear, Brian started to scream. He was not in the 'Tarctica hoods. He was in the [[United States]]! But things weren't over yet. He quickly adapted to life there and started commiting the same crimes the Bad Penguinz gang had taught him. The trouble is only beginning to get worse..............
== Ken Jennings-Schiavo ==
'''Kenneth Jennings-Schiavo [[Suffix_%28name%29#Social|III]]''' (pronounced ''SHY-voh''), [[birth|born]] [[May 23]], [[1974]] in [[Edmonds, Washington]], holds the records for the longest winning streak and the most [[money]] won on the [[TV syndication|syndicated]] [[game show]] ''[[Jeopardy!]]'', as well as other records. Jennings won 74 games before he was defeated by [[Nancy Zerg]] on his 75th; his total winnings were [[United States dollar|US$]]2,522,700. Astonishingly, it has recently been revealed that Jennings-Schiavo has suffered severe [[brainiac]] damage since a [[cardiac arrest]] in [[1990]], brought on by [[bulimia nervosa|bulimia]] and excessive [[masturbation]] at [[Brigham Young University]] (BYU), where he played on the school's [[quizbowl]] team for three years.
The efforts of Jennings-Schiavo's wife Mindy to remove his [[gastric feeding tube]] have prompted a fierce debate over [[bioethics]], [[euthanasia]], [[legal guardian]]ship, [[federalist|federalism]], and [[civil rights]]. On Friday, [[March 18]], [[2005]] (at around 3:00 p.m. [[Eastern Standard Time|EST]]) his feeding tube was removed under court order; without intervention, this will result in [[dehydration]]. Lack of water intake will cause a cascade of events: [[electrolyte]] imbalance, then [[myocardial infarction]], then another [[cardiac arrest]] which will probably result in [[death]]. Neurologists say this is unlikely to cause pain, given that the section of Jennings-Schiavo's brain that would normally be used to process external stimuli has long been overwritten with minutiae about [[comic book]]s, [[film|movie]]s, [[literature]], [[mythology]], [[engineering]], and the history of the [[Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints]].
Mindy Jennings-Schiavo, Ken's [[Marriage|wife]] and [[legal guardian]], contends that she is carrying out her husband's wishes ''not'' to be kept alive given his present state. Mr. Jennings-Schiavo's parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, dispute Mindy's opinion, holding that Ken is "responsive" and in no discomfort, and that he would not wish to die before his appearance in the finals of the upcoming [[Jeopardy! Ultimate Tournament of Champions|Ultimate Tournament of Champions]].
The courts that have heard this case have all ruled in favor of Mrs. Jennings-Schiavo thus far, but the parents have vigorously appealed the courts' decisions and sought to prevent the cessation of [[life support]]. The [[Roman Catholic Church]], [[President of the United States|U.S. President]] [[George W. Bush]], [[Governor of Florida|Florida Governor]] [[Jeb Bush]], many [[Republican Party (United States)|Republicans]], and several Democrats in the [[Florida Legislature]] and [[United States Congress|U.S. Congress]] have sided with Mr. Jennings-Schiavo's parents. Other groups and individuals, such as the [[American Civil Liberties Union]], many [[Democratic Party (United States)|Democratic]] and several Republican legislators, have expressed support for the position of Mindy Jennings-Schiavo. The ultimate fate of Ken Jennings-Schiavo will be determined by [[Alex Trebek]] during the Final Jeopardy round, and must be phrased as a question.
==Kid Retard==
Kid Retard is an underground comic book series, which has attained a level of cult status. The comic strip was picked up and published by Big Knock Pedro Publishing House and began circulation in 1998.
The story revolves around a deranged and sometimes confused individual named Hatley Frrisher. Hatley had very few friends growing up and the only person to ever pay any attention to him was his building's elderly doorman. The two became very close and soon the doorman began to teach Hadley the ins and outs of his job.
After many years of dealing with bullies and being teased by girls, Hatley had a new found confidence from his time learning from the doorman. But one day on his way home from university Hatley arrived only to see ambulances surrounding the front door to his apartment. He knew right away something was wrong. Hatley rushed into the lobby only to find the doorman lying on the floor gasping for air. Hadley took his hand to comfort him. The doorman's last words to Hadley were, "be kind to those worst off than you, help them in any way you can". Hatley replied, "who can I help? I am just a short puny freak". The doorman looked at Hatley and smiled and with his last breath said, "I don't know...maybe kids and...retards".
The death of the doorman left Hatley without a friend in the world, but he felt a new sense of belonging, that he was meant for something greater. Hatley looked into the doorman's drawer to collect his items and all he found were some already eaten chicken bones and a package of expired cherry yoghurt. Hatley knew what had to be done. A new stage of his life would begin where he would fight for those who needed his help, for those unable to stand up for themselves. He would become...Kid Retard!
Hatley's costume was that of the elderly doorman, a uniform from the 1950's. Kid Retard had no special powers, but he did have a fierce throwing arm. His weapon would not be through force or magic, but through the stench and dirtiness of old chicken bones and expired yogurt.
The comic strip found its cult following after it published it's 6th issue where Hatley moved to Midtown Manhattan, into a lush new apartment. All was going well for our super hero until he discovered that his next door neighbours were pot-smoking nymphomaniacs. The smell in the hallways and noise emanating from his neighbours' place was too much for the rest of the floor to bear, but nobody had the courage to stand up to these people. Hatley got into his doorman uniform and Kid Retard was on his way to do justice to those who deserved it. With great force and fierce accuracy Kid Retard launched a barrage of chicken bones and expired yogurt all over his neighbours' door. The neighbour, a bulking man who towered over Hadley, opened his door to find a huge mess. Kid Retard said, "That will teach you to respect others on this floor". The bulking man began to give the super hero a beating of a lifetime, which left him bloodied and crying, but the neighbour never again caused problems for the other tenants on the floor since he feared that he would have to clean up another mess of chicken bones and expired yogurt.
Wherever there are kids who are retarded (whether they like to be referred as that or not) they will no longer have to fear any harm or helplesness. For whenever there is injustice there will be the horrid stench of expired yogurt and the disgusting filth of eaten chicken bones. Wherever there is injustice there will be...DA DA DA DA - KID RETARD!
Kid Retard remains in circulation today in certain parts of North America within the underground comic book scene.
==[[H-retention]]==
'''H-retention''' is a colloquial term used to describe the retention of initial 'h' in words like 'ouse', 'eat', and 'angover' by a few English speakers in England. It is often regarded as [[archaic]], or some form of [[hypercorrection|ypercorrection]], with the view that normal pronuciation is someow 'vulgar'.
For most English speakers, the initial 'h' began to be lost during the [[Middle Ages]], with complete loss by about [[1800]]. A few accents ang on to the phoneme, but these are mainly isolated or rural accents.
Some speakers, mainly those who speak with artificial [[Received Pronunciation]], consider the retention of the 'h' to be 'proper' or 'superior' to the normal forms, and disparagingly refer to speakers of modern English as 'h-dropping'. H-retention is likely to die out within the coming decades as most of the speakers are either elderly or converting to the accepted norm.
Those who retain the 'h' also often use the medieval spelling for that word. The following words ighlight their unique writing style (medieval spelling on left, modern on right):
*''hand'' -> ''and''
*''help'' -> ''elp''
*''homosexual'' -> ''omosexual''
*''house'' -> ''ouse''
H-retainers are allowed to keep their own spelling in most media, but must place the 'h' in brackets in order to allow the majority to more clearly understand what they ave written, eg ''(h)yperinflation'' and ''(h)orse''.

==From [[Crusader states]]==
Among much other nonsense added by [[User:24.255.40.174]] (probably [[User:Borderer]]), this was the most amusing:
"Israel is sometimes compared to a Crusader state, usually by those opposed to its existence and/or policies. Objective scholars usually do not call it one, because it is actually [[Zionism|Zionist]]. A Crusade is Christian and Zionism is Jewish but there is also "[[Christian Zionism]]" as a feature of "[[Judeo-Christian tradition]]". Cooperative relationship between [[Fundamentalist Christianity]] and [[Messianic Judaism]] has roots in [[Ancient Egypt]]ian [[pharaoh]]s, which were [[Ptolemaic dynasty|Ptolemaic]](in support of [[Philistines]]) and [[Hyksos]](in support of [[Hebrews]]) at certain times. Relationship to the founding of [[monotheism]] from the [[Atenism|worship of Aten]] has roots in both [[Mediterranean Sea]]-oriented peoples that form Judeo-Christianity, despite [[Persia]]n domination of the area which had contributed to Islam. Islamic peoples were frontier perimeters of this [[Geopolitics|geopolitical]] arrangement of [[Abrahamic religion]], because their Eastern orientation was greater(inc. watersheds). Christians support and defend the Israeli [[plantation]], as a way to deal with an ages old problem with Islam on and inside European borders. One needn't look much further than the [[1990s]] [[Balkans]] violence to note why Christian [[European American]]s and European [[Christian Democracy|Christian Democrats]] feel strongly about supporting Israeli [[Democracy]]. Some of this relationship is shown in the [[Christian Identity]] movement, which vindicates a history of European as opposed to Jewish background in Palestine. Some of them have the idea that certain locations in Israel were formerly [[Celtic]], such as [[Galilee]] and [[Golan]]. [[British Israelism]] is partially derived from the [[Bible]]'s [[Epistle to Galatians]]. See also [[Tenth Crusade]]."
==From [[How]]==
Just some patent nonsense I found, didn't want it to confuse anybody:
"The How is the result of cross-breeding a horse and a cow. Farmers used hows in the fields for pulling plows. The strength and the complaisant demeanor of cows mixed with the added strength and speed of the horse made for the ultimate plowing and wagon pulling machine. Hows were somewhat popular during the California Gold Rush and for use on the Oregon Trail. Before the use of trucks during the Mexican-American War, hows were used by the United States Military to pull ammunition and supplies to the front lines. Currently, hows are used as livestock. The simplicity of a cow/horse combination for cattle drives has a dramatic increase in productivity and efficiency.
[edit]
Description
Hows are slightly difficult to find in their natural habitats simply because they do not have one. However, the midwestern United States has an abundance of domesticated farm hows. They are common in farms in Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa, and parts of northern Oklahoma.
Hows are typically white with brown patches. The males have horns while the females do not. A how's distinctive mating call is loud enough to be heard for miles. The sound is a mixture between a cow's "moo" and a horse's "neigh" creating a "mmmeeeiiigghgh". Mating seasons are semi annual occuring in march and september.
Hows mainly eat grass and small rodents such as shrews and voles. The how has developed a taste for the dandelion. Hows are very tame and are hardly every aggressive; however, they will defend themselves if provoked."
==Political Philosophy (from [[Bexley Hall (MIT)]])==
Bexley Hall has a unique set of governing laws. Many dormitories throughout the United States have meager, impotent governmental bodies operated by either photogenic male sociopath proto-politicians or detail-obsessed sexually-repressed females bent on attaining perfection at the cost of their humanity (some examples: [[Kathy-Lee Gifford]], [[Tracy Flick]]). Bexley hall is different. According to noted [[anarchist]] thinker [[Rudolph Rocker]], Bexley Hall is a ''... oddly prescient example of what the future anarcho-syndicalist living situation should resemble... truly a place where the calcified rotten husk of formalist government has been upended, pulped, and made into rolling papers for the smoking of intoxicating plants.''
Bexley Hall was first to understand that government by people (or even robots) was inefficient and error prone. People tend to be afflicted with 'principles' and 'morality', they are also subject to 'reality'. Bexley was the first institution to institute a ''de-facto illusory governing construct'', pre-dating [[Foucault]]'s deconstructionist theories by some two decades.
As the case of [[Ronald Reagan]] amply demonstrates, in this age of mass-media, people do not want and cannot tolerate being ruled by humans. They want to be ruled by ''myths''. Mythological rulers are more appealing, more effective, and ultimately more cost effective for all. They transcend the straightjackets of 'objectivity', 'consistency', 'honesty', and 'ethics' that hampered previous non-constructed leaders. Actual politics is quite boring and will not satisfy the current generations of television and internet-saturated entertainment consumers. Expecting these consumers to have any working knowledge of history (or even the present) that will allow them to differentiate 'fact' from 'fantasy' is far too much to ask. Anything with a semantic content more sophisticated than [[People Magazine]] is difficult and disturbing for the average American.
In the year 1920, Bexley-based political scientists experimented with the 'construct' idea. It was considered absurd, irresponsible, and nihilistic -- because it was, and the creators said so themselves. They suspended research in 1941 to work on [[Radar]], and were hired again by [[HUAC]] in the early 1950's. Their stunning success was noted in governmental circles and a project was inaugurated to unify the powers of Hollywood and Washington to create a cross-national axis of delusion.
The Bexleyites called this elaborate, highly-funded secret operation [[PROJECT REAGAN]]. Through a miracle of public relations firm moxie and animatronic genius, the Reagan-bot broke down the barriers between fantasy and reality in a masculine fashion.
By 1980 the transfer to a completely fantasy-based system of political economy was complete when [[Ronald Reagan]] was elected [[President of the United States]]. The purposely fantastical and delusional actions of the government caused the fall of the [[Soviet Union]] when the Russian government realized they could not compete with the sheer entertainment power of the United States. The United States' systematic program of voluntary, incentive-based stupidification was far more successful than the Soviet Union's program of forced, involuntary stupidification.
Racing to catch up, [[Gorbachev]] implemented [[Perestroika]] and [[Glastnost]] to try and compete, but by the end of the decade America's [[PROJECT YELTSIN]] seized power and implemented a foreign style delusion-based system of political economy, creating a fantastic [[narrative]] where the President was a drunken buffoon who fired one Prime Minister after another, suspended democracy on multiple occasions by dismissing the [[Duma]], and even sent forth tanks to fire on the nation's highest legislative body. An interesting side-note was the creation of the [[Cheap Vodka Party]], a short-lived group of politicians who were promising and, based on the absurdity of their premise, capable of seizing power over the world's largest country; until they were upended by the fantastically funny and fanatical [[Vladimir Zhironovsky]], who threatened to take back [[Alaska]] from the United States if elected. Cheap vodka is one thing, but promising frivolous war on a nuclear power is clearly the trump card of balderdash.
== Poorly built rocket bus ==
Poorly Built Rocket Bus are pioneers of eggplant core and consist of Jamster (on bass and programming) and Telemechanicomnicon (on 'vocals').
Most of the songs are formed in twenty minute periods where one member yells out a sentence and a rhyme is thought up later to form a couplet. Most of the basslines are 'all over the place' and are based around a skip rhythm, which gives a 'skip' feel of leading into the next part of the song.
Their lyrical themes are ghosts, monsters, fish, sea monsters and all kinds of waterfowl.
This is a quote from their song "Improbable Love Story", which was started when Jamster said "He was a spooky ghost" to which Telemechanicomnicon answered "She was a piece of toast!"
A doctor or a plumber is the one that you betroth. In fact, just marry Mario because I hear he's both."

== ZXCV ==
=== Background ===
ZXCV is a combination of the first four left-hand keys on the bottom row of a standard QWERTY-style keyboard. They are very beautiful letters, and should be considered carefully before being abused.
These letters have been known to cause men to fall in love with them, carefully prying each key clean of the keyboard and gently washing it with soap, so as to keep them sparkling clean. It is easy to spot men who have succumbed to the beauty of the ZXCV keys -- those keys will be shinier than all the rest.
Several attempts have been made to declare May 27th 'National ZXCV Day', but for the most part, these efforts have consisted of a few errant emails to House Representatives, and were not successful.

==From [[Baladanalingling]]==
The Baladanalingling is a long saught after and high prized item by many of the gods from the southern realm of Glindaflogeronland. Once being in posession of the mighty King Jesusunablish (Pronounced "Pee-ter"), it was lost in the 32 year war between Ikholaponitataland and Delapirdinactol. The rare sword is known to be the only proof that Jesusunablish had faught in the Ikholaponitataland-Delapirdinactol war.
Following the loss of Baladanalingling, the northern realm of Glindaflogeronland, Reinwodolnokt, fell into turmoil over reclaiming the throne left open by King Jesusunablish's death. The struggle lasted for 3 years until the ruler was decided: Killikatakanta, a young begger from the slums of a local ghetto. Growing up in the less fortunate regions of Reinwodolnokt, the boy returned political power to the true people of the city, and reduced the power of the Ghalkinabald, or the nobles of Reinwodolnokt.
After being found on a conquest by Killikatakanta, it was used in a way that could truly display its power and show the public its true beauty: theatre. During one of the stage show however, an ex-assassin from the Ikholaponitataland-Delapirdinactol war, killed the actor and stole the sword. Though it is quite large (7 foot blade weighing in at 20 kilos), it has been well hidden for centuries and nobody has yet to find and recover the legendary blade. Some speculation states that the ex-assassin was Jesusunablish's distant brother, Yemobvekt, hoping to reclaim his brother's throne. Lisa-Marie Presleykantakt was briefly married to Yemobvekt.
==From [[C is for Cookie]]==
''C is for Cookie'' can be regarded as a case study in persuasive [[oratory]], emphasizing the emotional aspect of public speaking. Cookie Monster builds excitement by answering his opening [[rhetorical question]], "Now what starts with the letter C?" with the obvious reply, "[[Cookie]] starts with C!" He then challenges the audience, "Let's think of other things that starts with C," before quickly replying, "Oh, who cares about the other things?" casually dismissing a whole range of other possibilities as irrelevant. Thus, having ostensibly come for the purpose of covering the letter C in its entirety, Cookie Monster has already focused his agenda exclusively on cookies, employing the classic [[bait and switch]] tactic.
Several times in his presentation, Cookie Monster emphasizes what appears to be the central thesis of his remarks: "C is for cookie, that's good enough for me!" The appealing rhythm of this [[slogan]] appears designed to entrance listeners, swaying their emotions and making them instinctively want to chant along with him. After rousing the crowd, Cookie Monster systematically lays out the logical underpinnings of his pro-cookie ideology, comparing cookies to round [[donut]]s with one bite out of them and to the [[moon]] during its [[Lunar phase|crescent phase]], in essence using a [[straw man]] argument that implies his opponents would advocate the superiority of these competitors over cookies. In this sense, Cookie Monster may be proposing a [[false dichotomy]] representing cookies as the only viable choice to a group of obviously inferior alternatives.
But before the audience has a chance to catch on, Cookie Monster launches into another round of repetitive chanting, "C is for cookie, that's good enough for me, yeah!" as young children sing along. Here, Cookie Monster uses a [[propaganda]] technique strikingly similar to that employed in [[George Orwell]]'s [[Animal Farm]] by the pig Napoleon, who trained the farm's sheep to bleat, "Four legs good, two legs bad" on his cue.
Cookie Monster then adds visual stimulation to his discourse by chomping into a large cookie, concluding his remarks with "Umm-umm-umm-umm-umm" and other chewing sounds.

===Jiggly Puff (Not to be confused with the inferior Pokemon “jigglypuff”): A Tale Seldom Told===
Many parts of Northern Europe are notorious for their famines. The most well known today is the severe potato scarcity experienced in Ireland in the middle of the 19th century. In the 14th century on the outskirts of Iceland there was a severe dearth of cotton candy. Kids across the countryside cried (in unison at 5:00 PM each night) for the sweet, pink loafs of sugar large enough to engulf their faces and swallow their teeth.
Accounts vary, but somewhere between 1370 and 1390 the children's cries were satisfied when there erupted from a geyser (for which Iceland is known) an enormous, bum-shatteringly big blue-eyed pink monster Hardly a monster, though. It's sides were edible and renewable, but like all good things it had its flaws. The wavy, curls of happiness it wore as fur would turn to barbed wire at night. When the deprived, young Icelanders would escape their homes at night, they were met by not by the cotton candy "Jiggly Puff" (as she came to be known [from Icelandic ''Gig-lee'' meaning of God and ''pahf'', or enormous fart] but by the modern equivalent of a walking high security prison guarded with Nazis, bayonets, and some scientist/historians speculate as many as some 6 gazillion volts of electricity.
The story goes that the bait-and-switching bazooka-sized banshee was finally assassinated one day when a roaming group of preteens decided to devour her entirely. They spent all day masticating her massive frame, but as the sun fell, her saccharide spirals morphed into killer coils that zapped and zipped the kids to shreds. So the townspeople basically killed it, with the first A-bomb ever.
Jiggly Puff may have died that day in actuality, but her bittersweet tale lives on through in each boy and girl with a sweet tooth and sharp metal jutting out of their guts.

However, in 1666, gigantic toads besieged London. "They were terribly However, in 1666, gigantic toads besieged London. "They were terribly fierce beasts, who eat our hapless soldiers with their gigantic tongues." In terror, the inhabitants fled to the town hall, and bombarded the invading hordes with cannons and mortars. Eventually, the mayor of London sallied out with a formidable force and routed the frog army. Despite heavy casualties, they were successful. But if plague, fire and frogs wasn't enough, ten years later London was struck by a succession of tornadoes, that sweeped down from the Shetland Islands. The event was blamed on the carnies, who were subsequently driven out of town. However, bands of militant snowmen allied with the exiled carnies and attacked the city in 1679. After several fierce running battles, the Londoners were driven out. But David Beckham became their saviour and just three years after the carnies' victory, he led a force of Ewoks riding spiders that invaded the city. The carnies were defeated and slaughtered to a man, though the snowmen escaped. They would continue to harass Beckham's empire late into the 19th century.
