Minor happy: after running a kilometer for a dentist appointment, I have procured one (1) chocolate-frosted doughnut and three (3) strawberry munchkins. Yum.

Strawberry... munchkins? I... do. Do south koreans sell members of the lollipop guild out to be consumed by its populous? Why are your people selling strawberry glazed midgets as food, Sky? Why?

[Darvi]

Because chocolate glazing wouldn't be as good, duh.

[Skyrunner]

Not this



but this



The white powdered one, to be specific.

*blinks*

Oh. I think those are called doughnut holes over where. Or just mini-doughnuts. Can get 12 ounces (twenty or thirty of 'em, if my memory's working) for ~2.15 USD, iirc.

I think it's a Dunkin Donuts-specific word, Munchkins (tm)

So you're dunkin' some munchkins, eh?

I'll see myself out.

Ah ha. So they're the ones making munchkin mince mini-doughnuts. I'll have to remember that, and avoid them like the cannibalistic plague.

Don't worry, I can be tsundere for you.

This makes me happy for a reason I can't explain but I'm happy and thanks!

Also I'm defending Sky here. Those things are called munchkins around here.

..I found it weird that they were called mini-doughnuts or worse yet, donut holes (..donuts already have a hole). I guess its in the general fact that we don't use the term munchkin as an offensive thing related to dwarfism?

...Oh dear, I think I just..detected a gap wherein stuff could be misinterpreted with the East and West. >.>

Regardless, those things are sweet! I think I've a sweettooth. :/

I've only ever heard munchkin used to describe a small child (Presumably chubby-cheeked, from the sounds of the word...) or somebody who focusses way too hard on min-maxing in a multiplayer game, be it tabletop or MMO.

Never people with dwarfism, though.

[Dutchling]

Munchkins are those adorable little teensy tiny wubble wabble fluffy cats :v

[Tiruin]

Ehh..I guess its in how the word is used. Never thought about that..though yeah, I guess I heard it most when referring to

The MMO thing is new.

And another thing: Total Color contrast! Found how to create a..particularly nice scene with opposing colors and shading.
Problem being how, but just knowing that it can be is a huge step up!

There is no better feeling than biking past a place where fries are sold, smelling the fries and longing for them, and then realizing you're going to eat fries for dinner

Or, as it's called in Belgium, Thursday.

Actually, I don't think it usually is used as such over here, either. I was making a wizard of oz reference

As for minidoughnuts, I was actually confusing myself -- they're actually tiny doughnuts (about the same size as doughnut holes, but with a little hole and everything) and they're fairly inexpensive (that's the 2.15 for 2/3rds of a pound quote). What y'all call munchkins actually are called doughnut holes, though. Fairly sure the rational goes, well. You've got a doughnut. Doughnuts have holes (except when they don't, anyway). Doughnut holes are made from the material that used to be where the hole is (note: They're not, but yeah). They're pastries made from the hole of a doughnut, ergo, doughnut holes. If you gattai a doughnut with a hole and a doughnut hole, you'd have a doughnut without a hole.
