Girl Scout Cookies

[mozabilly54]

Does anyone know when those little devil girl scouts sell these? I know it's coming up and I really want some!

[pewter14]

Stick the thin mints in the freezer ... or the short bread ones as is ... with some milk ...

tasty.

Ew. I don't like those. I love the peanut butter patties and thin mints.


But....when do they start selling these?!?!?!

[hawkingvsreeve]

Ew. I don't like those.

Wrong answer. Banned and ignored.

[waxybk]

my niece was just selling them for her troop....but about 4 months ago a co-workers daughter was selling them, so maybe it depends on the girl scout troop.

[mozabilly54]

Wrong answer. Banned and ignored.

sorry. I'm allergic to coconut so I can't eat them. :(

That is one of the saddest things I have ever heard. I'd tell you what you are missing out on, but I don't want to rub it in.

It is Moz. He's my hero. I <3 him.

4 boxes.

i ordered 2 boxes of thin mints and two boxes of shortbread one year from a girl at work. i was snowboarding when they were delivered, there was a mixup, and somehow i got 4 boxes of thin mints.

[psychic friend]

[bmack86]

Samoas and thin mints are the two best.

[bug on your lip]

I love Tagalongs & Samoas, in that order

[Yablonowitz]

That is one of the saddest things I have ever heard. I'd tell you what you are missing out on, but I don't want to rub it in.

I fucking HATE coconut and I'm not allergic to it either. So, yeah, that shit you like to eat Hawking....it sucks.

Thin Mints and the chocolate covered peanut butter ones are where it's at.

[bug on your lip]

Thin Mints are queer

[full on idle]

Thin Mints leave a waxy residue in the mouth. They also give me heartburn.

amen to that brother

[bug on your lip]

[full on idle]

hahaha

[mountmccabe]

Brandon is right, you know.

The Thin Mints are good but the Samoas rule all.

[MusicIsMyBoyfriend]

I used to be a girl scout so my addiction started early. Every year I have to stock up on Thin Mints and Penut Butter Patties. Fuck me they're so good.

[TomAz]

bug? bug? you awake?

[HorrorLibraryNet]

Thin Mints in the freezer...always.

So, what's the deal with the Boy Scouts? Why did they never come up with anything decent for us to want to buy to support their little club? Slackers.

I drooled a little when that picture loaded.

[fatbastard]

I can eat two entire boxes of Samoas as long as there is milk.

[amyzzz]

My daughter sold Girl Scout cookies a couple weeks ago. Her shipment comes in Feb 19th. I bought 2 boxes of thin mints.

Didn't Penn & Teller cover in one of their episodes of "Bullshit" that the Boyscouts are actually dominated by the Christian faith?

I was never a boy scout ... as evidencd by the fact I cannot tie or untie a knot to save my freakin' life ...

I'm also stunned shortbread cookies were the least favorite per the girl scout website, I'll have to help pad their stats next time they come around.

Back in Boston, they used to camp out at the T stop (subway) by my house .... they cleaned up on weak minded, office automatons when they were heading home after a long day of work (like me)

[Hannahrain]

I think it has something to do with there only being 3 ingredients in most shortbread; everybody can make them.

[pewter14]

granted, but, they are three really ... tasty ... ingredients

[Hannahrain]

then it must just be because samoas are SO MUCH BETTER.

[mob roulette]

they're back....

gorging on samoas right now. feels so good. yeah baby. just like that. chew faster now. faster. oh my god that's so hot...

[kimery08]

i yearn for that feeling.

[TomAz]

the best part is when yuo eat so many so fast you get the gunk stuck between your teeth and you can savor it for a good hour after.

[mob roulette]

yeah baby suck those teeth. come on open up. let me see those gums. oh yeah. get that big chunk of coconut. GET IT. oh my god you're making me hot. YEAH.

[dinosaurateme]

I haven't seen any girl scouts lately. I was once a girl scout.
I remember one time i went to this guy's house who had a "no soliciting" sign. And i didn't know what it meant so i rang the guy's doorbell and he's like, "there's a no soliiting sign on my door, can't you read?" and i said, "yes, i can read. Would you like to buy some girl scout cookies?" And back then i used to be really scared of raccoons so i would never sell cookies at night. hahaha.

oh and girl scout cookies may be one reason why i'm fat. I should sue.

[Surrealkiller]

I totally just bought four boxes of Carmel Delights...

*drool*

[elChurro]

hello??? wasen't there a whole thread on chaffing and thunder thighs at coachella?

[kimery08]

costco has the best churros.

[amyzzz]

I'm delivering a shitload of these tomorrow. *sigh*

[TomAz]

you didn't even try to sell us any!

[amyzzz]

you didn't even try to sell us any!
because I'm not an asshole.

[psychic friend]

I still dont see anyone selling any around here yet.

[mountmccabe]

Does this mean that Girl Scouts are now going to be at places like grocery stores selling boxes right there now? Because I guess I don't know any parents/etc of girl scouts that made it known that they were selling cookies so I didn't order anything. Maybe later this week I will have to go to the store to see.

[amyzzz]

John, yeah I think the girls will start selling the cookies in the front of grocery stores.

Actually, my daughter's troop leader said she has like 30 extras, so if you REALLY REALLY want me to, I could ask if she has the kind of cookies you want. I just hate selling things and didn't want to be annoying on the board. :)
(PM me)

I like you.

[mountmccabe]

I just bought a box of Samoas and some Thin Mints outside the grocery store. I am not taking them to the lake tonight and my brother is bringing over Chipotle burritos soon but I still had to eat me some Samoas. Mmm yummy.

[mozabilly54]

jealous.

[kreutz2112]

My girlfriend ordered Girl Scout cookies from work and she didnt order samoas...the next day she told her boss she fell down the stairs.

[Yablonowitz]

My girthy armed wife ordered fucking Dosidos instead of Tagalongs and she's being disciplined as we speak.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Wednesday, February 04, 2009

The lousy economy is even taking a bite out of the venerable Girl Scout cookie.

Higher prices for flour, oil and cocoa will mean smaller Samoas and thinner boxes of Thin Mints for many cookie consumers this year. Tighter household budgets, meanwhile, are threatening to put a pinch on sales, even for the sweetest of Scouts.

“Oh, I am so prayerful that we will [meet our goals],” said Anita Walton, product sales manager for the 40,000-member Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta, which typically sells 3 million to 3.5 million boxes a year.

After a month of door-to-door sales, Atlanta-area Girl Scouts turn in their sales tallies this week.

Fears about deadly peanut butter also are threatening sales, even though the Girl Scouts say none of their peanut butter cookies contain paste from the Georgia plant at the center of a nationwide salmonella outbreak.

Regardless of how sales end up, buyers might notice they’re getting a little less for their $3.50 per box when they get their goodies in a couple of months.

Samoas and Tagalongs, for instance, are slightly smaller this year.

Boxes of Thin Mints, Do-si-dos and Trefoils are smaller by an ounce in some markets —- the equivalent of two fewer Thin Mints per box —- though because Georgia troops use a different baker, Georgians will get just as many Thin Mints as they did last year, according to Walton.

Michelle Tompkins, national spokeswoman for the Girl Scouts, said flour prices at the organization’s two bakers are up 30 percent. Transportation costs are up just as much. Cocoa prices, she said, rose 20 percent or more.

In Atlanta, Girl Scouts are appealing to consumers’ charitable sides to support sales this year. Scouts are asking consumers to buy a few extra boxes to donate to local food banks and shelters, Walton said.

“We know some of our areas have been hard hit with layoffs and business closings,” she said. “But even if people are cutting back … we ask that they think about those donations.”

[OnlyNonStranger]

Girl scouts go door to door?

I should really move out of the ghetto..

FOR THE COOKIES!!!

[chairmenmeow47]

WHAT THE FUCK, WHY DOES SHORTBREAD NEED TO BE MADE SMALLER?!?! that's it, i'm punching the next girl scout i see in the face.

[BROKENDOLL]

Save the Girl Scout cookies and eat a Brownie instead...:rolleyes

[TommyboyUNM]

:rotfl :rotfl :rotfl


Because a brownie is a dessert, but a Brownie is a group sort of like the girl scouts. So it's like you're eating a little girl. HAHHAHAHAHAHHAHA. Man, that's rich. (get it! rich!)

[tessalasset]

They rely on Casino Night from the Scranton branch.

Actually, I didn't think it was appropriate to invite children since it's... You know, there's gambling and alcohol, and it's in our dangerous warehouse and it's a school night... And, you know, Hooters is catering. You know, is that enough? Should I keep going?


followed by my favorite quote ever:

Why are you the way that you are? Honestly, every time I try to do something fun or exciting, you make it not... that way. I hate so much about the things that you choose to be.

[Alchemy]

Lemon cookies have arrived at my house. A bit tarty, but good.

[kitt kat]

Oh man. I need my mom to send me a box of Caramel Delights, STAT.

And they took away my favs...those HUGE square ones with the animals. They were shortbread with chocolate on the back.

[obzen]

wilderness girls?

[chairmenmeow47]

nice. much better uniforms too :p

[davrone]

Shit. Better hurry and get me some god damn Thin Mints! Quick question: Is it true they sell Thin Mint Ice Cream? If so, where?

ralphs.
it's seasonal.

[fatbastard]

I will not be purchasing any cookies this year. Does anyone remember Big Macs, ice cream cones, and candy bars when they were bigger? The reduction of size and quantity really pisses me off. I would rather have them increase the price than what they have chosen to do. Artists did the same thing in the 90s. Can't afford one of those 80 foot by 120 foot Julian Schnabel's for 100,000? Then he's happy to announce his 8 inch by 12 inch serigraph for only 10,000. Those little bastards.

Good answer.

I'm a Thin Mint girl.

"On my honor I will try to serve god, my country, and to live by the Girl Scout law."

I always loved that it said "try."

[bug on your lip]

i just stuffed a whole roll of Tagalongs in my mouth

[humanoid]

I'm too poor to buy girl scout cookies this year...

the lack of samoas right now is clearly reducing the quality of my life

[Young blood]

Its easier than it looks to knock down girl scouts.

[humanoid]

I hadn't considered that tactic

[miscorrections]

I just put in an order for Samoas. Fucking crack cookies, I swear.

[Mr.Nipples]

anyone remember awana?


fucking posers

[M Sparks]

The Do-Si-Do's don't get enough respect. Probably because they are basically just Nutter Butters and you could just go buy them. The rest are more unique.

Why do they keep changing the names on everything but the Thin Mints. Didn't the shortbreads used to be called "ScotTeas" or something like that?

Boy Scouts say "I will do my best to do my duty..." Why are they held to a higher standard than girls?

[HunterGather]

speak of the devil. My parents just ordered some and the delivered it today.

Mmmm...samoas...

[TheWatcher]

As much as I'd like to support the Girl Scouts, I can't eat their products, as my body does not know how to process it. Too bad they don't sell something I could actually eat, like nuts or chocolates. :(

I need to find some girl scouts and get some cookies.

I was a girl scout once, and I won a teddy bear for selling the most cookies in my troop. Everyone hated me for that.

i was pretty much thinking the same thing. on both counts. GO PB!!!

[chairmenmeow47]

i bumped it because it was the thread with "girl scout cookies" in the title when i searched and girl scout cookies are serious business around these parts.

[marooko]

round most parts.

[fatbastard]

FYI.

I have a list of people who I will be personally reimbursing this year due to the flakiness of Mozbilly54. I'll also be making cupcakes at the condo and hopefully making a Fatbastard compilation CD for them as well. Just need to PM them to confirm who will be going this year.

[chairmenmeow47]

what happened with Mozbilly54? i didn't realize this thread was sore spot, sorry :p

[fatbastard]

Not at all Meow. You had no idea.

The short of it is that I started soliciting money from board members to help her attend Coachella. She use to post semi-often and seemed on the up and up to me. A few people (including myself) actually sent her money via PayPal. What happened after that? No one knows. She never came back on the board. Though my intentions were good, a couple of people (including myself) got burned. I will be making it right this year for those people.

[obzen]

Wilderness Girls?

[chairmenmeow47]

wow, that is total and utter crap. they should get a skull & crossbones next to their login name on the boards. like when you see your friends, you see a plus, but when you see people like that, you see the crossbones. nice of you to fix the wrong though after doing such a nice thing for someone like that :)
