What does this cookie look like?

larry_stewart · Jan 25, 2023

Last week we all went out for my Dad's 83rd Birthday.
My sister in law bought him cookies.
Right off the bad, My dad is diabetic and shouldn't be eating a box full of sugar laced, icing covered cookies. But putting that aside, what do these cookies look like to you ? Just curious.

Tombstones.

That's what we thought too! We were trying to figure out why she would by such cookies for his Birthday . He's not in the greatest health. When we told her what we thought it looked like, she actually got insulted and told us that we were morbid and it doesn't resemble a tombstone at all. We have asked at least 10 + people what they think it looked like, and %100 said tombstone

. We actually are having a great laugh out of it, but still trying to figure out how she doest see it .

Im guessing the person she got them from probably had left over cookies from halloween , and was just repurposing them.

LOL, I think that's a pretty good guess!

But not only morbid, between the sugar and the tombstone - is she wishing for an inheritance.
That was rude, crass, insulting and you name it.

I think Common Sense 101 should be brought back to all schools AND as a crime induced sentence much like "60 hours of community work".
But as in "You are hereby sentenced to... "6 months of 2 hour classes per week of Common Sense."

As my dear departed Grandmother used to say: “Poor dear, she means well.”

Exactly. I wonder who ever thought of design?

Do we have emoji here?

If you click on the smiley sign

at the top of the message pane you will see some. You can also use those you have on your computer and/or phone as well. ? ?‍‍

Wouldn't it be a shame if it were accidentally dropped and it shattered into a thousand pieces.

No Andy, the dog is diabetic too....

Thank you, but I do not se the "smiley sign"

@CharlieD - Where you type your message there is a line starting B I and other symbols. The eighth from the left [after the symbol to insert images] is a smiley sign. Hover the curser over it and it will say "Smilies". Click on it and they should show up.

If you are using a computer, click the three dots where I put a red arrow. Then you should be able to see the smiley face where there is another red arrow.

@larry_stewart what do you expect from a person who tells you to bring your own meals to Thanksgiving?

She apparently lives on her own planet.

I see the smiley fact inbetween the image icon and the three dots - I wonder whether it is different on different browsers? I use Firefox on my computer.

You guys are right on point! Took the words right out of my mouth.

Yep, same SIL lol. Knowing it was a her who did it, It all makes sense. Luckily my family has a sense of humor, but wow, what an ass. What's funny is she was mad at us at firsts ( probably cause she was embarrassed or in denial ), but that's a completely avoidable mistake with just a little common sense. We'll be talking about this one for awhile.
