TIL I still have no self-control when it comes to Girl Scout cookies. Let's just say what was supposed to be three thin mints to go with my lunch turned into a sleeve being my lunch.

Frankly, I don't even hate myself for it.

Our little neighbor is so sweet that we've already decided we're going to keep being her best customer. Besides, the Samoas are like crack.

Is even better when you put the thin mints in the fridge/freezer for the extra cool refreshing taste.

Today I learned that a Hypersonic Kh-47M2 Kinzhal can:

- Accelerate to hypersonic speed within seconds of launch (much like our Twins)
- Evasive manoeuvres can be preformed at all stages of the flight
- Uses inertial navigation system to continously track the position and speed of target, or can be piloted remotely
- Due to weight and speed, missile has high target penetration characteristics
- Can travel at Mach 10 (7,673mph)
- Range 1,240 to 1,860miles
- Flight ceiling 12.5 miles
- Lenght 8m
- Weight 500kg
- Warhead Nuclear or high explosive fragmentation
- Accuracy 1m

Oh, can be launched from MiG-31K, TU-22M3 or SU-57

Oh, can lauched from MiG-31K, TU-22M3 or SU-57

A lot of those specs need the circumstantial asterisk.

Samoas are my favorite by far, but sadly my dealer ugm, supplier, ugm dearest young lady selling them was out.

I can no longer go into Dollar General stores because they sell "coconut caramel cookies indistinguishable from Somoas" for a dollar a box.

If you enjoy that you should go the extra step of dipping them in liquid nitrogen.

At first I thought you were referring to a breed of dog and I couldn't make sense of the sentence.

I have my technique down, nibbling all the good stuff off of the top of the cookie first. Then I bust it in half and get the rest out of the center. Finally I eat the cookie and lick my fingers.

On my commute to/from work there are 14 Dollar General stores (yes, I counted). The struggle is real.

We have Dollar Tree and Dollarama store here. There are no less than 8 within a 6 block radius of me. There is one of each right beside each other a block away. They all seem to be busy all the time though.
Oh and of course nothing in either is actually a dollar anymore!
