When the mere mention of them is made in chat many members go bug-eyed. They are something awesome and undeniably good to eat, warm yummy thoughts always come to me when I hear their mentioned. But it is funny because they can be used as a very good tool to get people to do things, or seen as the reason to do many things. here is a little example from Chat today:
Redjack_Ryan: Building a LEGO model that functions with motors. And what's cooler than that? Same thing, but with actual lights
kellybug: Building LEGO models while eating cookies..?
Redjack_Ryan: That too, kelly
I just saw that so I posted it, but of course there are other long past chats that had similar responses to the awesomeness of the cookie! It is a very good way to get Leviathan to behave, if you dare mention them you'd better have enough for everyone. Rukia's sword was turned into one that sprouted cookies, just cause that would somehow be more awesome than the usual ice it put out.
What is it about the cookies that creates such a response from so many? I know that cookies are good, I love to bake them, try new kinds and even send them to friends. But virtual ones? i suppose perhaps it is the knowledge of what they are in real life that the online chatter cannot help but get giddy about cookies in chat. True, not all members are lured in by the offer of cookies, but a fair few are in that group. Not that it is at all a bad thing, I love a cookie whenever I can get them.. It is just funny to see sometimes the reactions that come about due to cookies. Such a simple food item, yet no other can beat it out for most prized virtual food item (except maybe bacon, but I detest the stuff so it doesn't get my vote).
Moral of the post, when bringing cookies, ensure there are plenty for all and do not abuse the power of the cookie on other members...
