each carried a bag of Saint Paddy fixins out of the grocers

exiting through the pneumatic glass doors they were waylaid by Girl Scouts

Whas the cause Keepem off the street  I didnt hear you ask they didnt explain have a fuckin clue wha youre supporting

The Girl Scouts the Girl Scouts, I’m supporting the Girl Scouts.

   An you like cookies

Who doesn’t like cookies?no sooner out of his mouth he corrected himself Who aside from you, doesn’t like cookies?

Its not about cookies Its about the corporations behind the Girl Scouts  Who theyre fronting

Fronting?

Fronting

What the hell are you talking about?

Whadid ya pay a box

Six dollars.

How many cookies in a boxwhas their net weight

I don’t know.

Thin mints thirtytwo others fifteen each box nine ounces Think   Once upon a time they were sixteen ounces  though I coud be wrong

So what. The Girl Scouts are iconic.

They are

You could donate cash.

I coud

       But then Id have to trust strangers trust only their troop utilises it   An I don trust nobody      

You trust me.

As far as I can throw you  which aint far

What do you mean fronting?

Its profit motivated

As most things are.

I agree

          Though seems to me Girl Scouts coud make substantially more money turning tricks sex trafficking

Jesus.

   Dark humour

                     I surely relish dark humour

You don’t mean it?

Nah

      Though ever wonder how many women in porn had been Girl Scouts

his eyes bugged

Just sayin

           Also  Aint a damn thing wrong with porn Id prefer to watch people have sex than kill each other car chases mayhem AI-generated sequences an characters

But thas me

when they got to the car unloaded bags into the backseat buddys tipped over  cookie boxes spilled out

Christ  How many boxes did you buy I took four from you

No idea. I bought what I wanted.
