Yes, I think no magical brownies is a good idea.
Stodgy and humorless? Is that the kind of forum you want?

Well, the brownies ceased to qualify as "humor" some time ago....

Ah but if a retail outlet bore the same name, it would be my favorite haunt.

The ATF sucks and should be disbanded, but you already know how I feel on the subject. We could actually have a forum category for ATF abuses and it would get added to on a regular basis.

BOOT THE BATFE!!
POLITICIANS & DIAPERS NEED TO BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON

A person properly schooled in right and wrong is safe with any weapon. A person with no idea of good and evil is unsafe with a knitting needle, or the cap from a ballpoint pen.

I remain pessimistic given the way BATF and the anti gun crowd have become tape worms in the guts of the Republic. - toad

I always thought the magic brownies option was not primarily for the humor so much as a nod to departed comrades and to allow an option which, in effect, meant:
"I have no clear enough opinion on this particular matter for my choosing one of the proffered options to have any statistical meaning, however I believe I might benefit from reviewing a compendium of my confreres' opinions and views. Plus, voting on stuff makes me giggle a little bit."
I say we keep the brownies (and Felix's farts) or make sure there are enough characters allowed in a poll question to include the text above.

ETA: Just note how many people actually chose the magic brownies.

Note to self: start reading sig lines. They're actually quite amusing. :D

Magical brownies just had to get mentioned. Now I have a craving for some Chocolate lover's brownies, 250 calories in a 1 inch cube - they are out of this world homemade brownies. I may have to cook up a batch when i get home from work. Heck did I just admit I am at work! Oh well, I had better not say anything derogatory about the BATFE since I am a fed. I do think though that it would behoove the whole nation if it was legislated that there was no need for such an agency excpet maybe to do investiagtions of stolen federally owned guns, or of guns used in federal crimes, or of explosives used in bombing attacks. Alcohol and guns, in general, should be free of any interference by the G, and that includes free of taxation as far as I am concerned.

All the best,

The ATF might be listening.

At least they will be if Obama is El Presidente.

Are bears-either references to, or entire threads devoted to, permissible? I didn't see anything concerning such in the rules. :shock:

BTW, hi everbuddy!
