    I hope they also have a good supply of milk for those Oreos. I like to dip mine.

    Bears should just say no to drugs.

    That bear (or a heavily-fictionalized version of it) is the subject of an upcoming comedy-horror film, where it rampages and terrorizes a number of humans, unlike the actual bear which (much more realistically) died from heart failure long before it could encounter a single human.

    A ring worth approximately £38,989 and 59 pence. Wow.

    How did the bear find weed?

    I wonder what the number Quatre Mille Sept Cent Onze meant for Napoleon to name his cologne such.

    Suppose that Norwegian Oreo vault isn’t for Alfred Yankovic who parodied “The Right Stuff” by New Kids on the Block?

    And maybe the Norwegians’ taste buds are frozen!

    And what did Empress Josephine use? She could have used less empire and more husband!

    I heard the cocaine bear died from not being able to talk. And PLEASE if anyone can see this let me know. I still have no idea how long my suspension is, let alone WHY it is.

    The taxidermied body of that “cocaine bear” is on display in Kentucky, but that incident happened in Georgia rather than Kentucky. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocaine_Bear_(bear)

    Check this out! A good buddy of mine has 2 Super Bowl tix, 40 yard line box seats. He paid $2,500 each but he didn’t realize last year when he bought them, it was going to be on the same day as his wedding. Probably because of the extra game this year. If you’re interested, he’s looking for someone to take his place. Try to be on time. It’s at Calvary church in La Jolla, CA at 3pm. The bride’s name is Nicole, she’s 5’4", about 115 lbs, good cook too. She’ll be in the white dress. Thanks!

    How often do they replace the cookies? They do go stale.

    I didn’t know 4711 was that old. I like it. It’s a nice unisex cologne.

    Believe it or not, Oreo cookies were introduced a copycat of Hydrox cookies, at least in appearance. Hydrox is trying to make a comeback. I was finally able to locate some. I didn’t find them to be as flavorful as Oreos.

    I took the Ripley’s Challenge (believe or not) and looked up the Oreo Vault. Well, cover me eggs and flour and bake me for 40 minutes, it’s real. https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2022/11/27/is-the-oreo-doomsday-vault-real-or-fake/

    there’s a video if you scroll down

    In order to achieve that particular fragrance, one must coral and dispatch a ewe, retrieve portions of the skeleton, isolate the skull, then pull the bone apart. ~ Napoleon Bonaparte

    Take care, may Norwegian escaped asylum inmate and prolific cookie hunter Isak “Their Tracks Are Difficult To Detect In The Summer Time Especially But The Effort Will Be Well Worth It I’m Sure” Centerlickord be with you, and gesundheit.

    And between consuming the cocaine and expiring that bear ran the NYC Marathon in 34 minutes.

    Shortly before passing, that bear was seen disco dancing at all the clubs in town, donning a spoon around his neck

    The world seed reserve preserves seeds so people can grow crops to feed themselves. I assume the Oreo reserve will allow them to eat while the crops grow, rather than teach them to make Oreos.

    Eromlig, roaming26-37 is correct. We can only see your posts if we go to your profile page.

    The bear didn’t find weed— it found cocaine. A lot of it, apparently.

    Twinkies do not need a vault, as they have no expiration date and are immune to radiation…

    Well, everyone knows where Dorset is… I want to know where this Kentucky is, somewhere in Europe?

    How do appraisers arrive at a $ figure for something that old?

    The doomsday vault for seed and grain they have up there in the arctic is more practical and essential. The vault for Oreos sounds to me like a commercial gimmick.

    “Near Dorset”? I don’t get it. If you are near Dorset but not in it, you must be in a different county. It’s like saying “Near Indiana”.
