The Duplex by Glenn McCoy for November 17, 2020

Ever hear the phrase. You can catch more flies with honey.

No sale!

She isn’t a very good salesperson but I will take a couple of cases of the thin mints.

I love children who display qualities taught by good parents, as they grow up to be good adults. This isn’t one of them. I encountered one IRL a couple of Halloweens ago. I went to the door, wearing an NHL team jersey (doesn’t matter what team), and saw a group of 3 small children, plus an adult with a toddler on his shoulders. One of the children immediately blurted out “your team sucks”. I calmly gave the other two a couple of treats each, put a couple in the bag the adult was holding for the toddler and looked at the smarthmouth and said to him “maybe your dad will explain why you didn’t get anything” and closed the door.

Nope – shortbread cookies… I’ll get the Thin Mints with them too, though.

I tend to buy from the girls who set up outside of the local Sam’s Club or Walmart… I don’t know anyone who has a girl still in the Girl Scouts selling cookies anymore. ;-)

Some girl scouts sell better than others. Mine used to sell me a couple of cases(yup cases) every time. The dogs and I loved them, but even at only one a day a peice, they go fast. I was a good customer.

Sad how the Girl scouts of America still exploit young girls for profit. The girls don’t make the cookies anymore and aren’t getting minimum wage. This is exploitation!!!

More proof the Girl Scouts have gone downhill.

I notice that Art Thieme’s hilarious song about Girl Scout cookies has been expunged from the Web.

Eno prefers Aldi’s copy cat GS cookies.

She was at Eno’s house last year…

“Look Mister you don’t want my Uncle Vinny to come back with me.”

Answering the front door in underwear….

I don’t like any of the girl scout cookie flavors. My wife thinks I’m nuts, but she’s happy because she can buy whatever she wants and eat them all herself.

Girl Scouts don’t go door to door anymore. First of all it wouldn’t be safe because of the number of deranged males preying on little girls. Normally you can see them sitting outside grocery stores selling their overpriced cookies or even more likely their parents are extorting their work associates to buy them.

Where was she raised, Little Sicily..?

The word is spelled “capisce.” Capisce?

So much for the attitude badge.

Isn’t that Alice Portnoy from the Carol Burnett Show?

The sign on my door says “No Solicitors unless you have Thin Mints”

You mean they can talk? Most of the time, I see them standing behind their mothers at a table outside of a grocery store while Mom conducts the transaction (not that I mind, still glad to help).

I have some strange desire to go off-topic, and say, I can’t remember ever seeing an entrance door to a house, open to the outside.
