I don't think I've ever read a Perk post that has made sense to me. I don't know whether to feel dumb or...well I don't know what else to feel.

Here is a prime example:

Enforced flavor segregation is a lingering relic of our backward and shameful past, but these days, the darky cho-cho is everywhere, and I'm loving me some.

Some bars score 80% on the negritude scale. This used to be illegal in many southern states.

Gone are the days, my friend, when lovers of the hard core dark used to found skulking around the bakery section of Supermarkets late at night picking up the uncut baker's stuff for baking . . . yeah, that's right, officer, for baking. <shifty eyes>

Don't get me wrong though, Perk is one of my favorite moderators :heart: 😉



I am deciding the fate of this thread. Back in a few.


edit:
Temporary reprieve on this one.

In this post he's saying that we're finally past the days where dark chocolate is seen as an afterthought in the chocolate world. You can find it anywhere (ie dark chocolate versions of normal candy) and you can also find it with up to 80% cacao, which he jests would make it so dark as to be illegal in regions that are unfriendly to African Americans.
After some recent studies indicating dark chocolate can be good for your health, many companies came out with a wide variety of chocolate bars with varying percentages of cocoa bean. You could only find this in unsweetened baker's chocolate blocks a few years ago.

I think perk is in love with himself, and it shows thru the flowery prose he writes... it's almost as if his responses say "i'm too good to reply to your puny comment, but since i am here's something you need to remember me by"

afterwards, i expect he farts, then inhales his own fragrance...

you mean... everyone doesn't do that?

I don't get it. Besides the fact that I'm a genius, something about smelling your own farts, and making wildly crazy posts, means that I am in love with myself.
....
Well, I guess that means I love myself. From here own out, I will accept this, and shall commence complete self love as much as I can for the rest of my life.

That's probably the ADD kicking in. Out of curiosity, have you read any literature, as in, text that is not displayed on an electronic screen?

Edit: I realize that literature is transferred and even written on electronic devices, but for the sake of example, a very large portion of "reading" on electronic devices is mind-numbing things such as forums and other short attention span things.

Huh? Someone here posts differently? 😕
 
We have Oldsmoboat's Law, why can't we label certain Perknose responses as Perk's Corollary?

I laughed and cried for a solid minute after this post.

Thank you, sir.
