- MUFFIN MAN
-
- The Muffin Man is seated at the table in the laboratory of the
- Utility Muffin Research Kitchen... Reaching for an oversized chrome
- spoon he gathers an intimate quantity of dried muffin remnants and
- brushing his scapular aside procceds to dump these inside of his
- shirt...
- He turns to us and speaks:
-
- "SOME PEOPLE LIKE CUPCAKES BETTER. I FOR ONE CARE LESS FOR THEM!"
-
- Arrogantly twisting the sterile canvas snoot of a fully charged
- icing anointment utensil he poots forths a quarter-ounce green
- rosette (oh ah yuk yuk... let's try that again...!) He poots forth a
- quarter-ounce green rosette near the summit of a dense but radiant
- muffin of his own design.
- Later he says:
-
- "SOME PEOPLE... SOME PEOPLE LIKE CUPCAKES EXCLUSIVELT, WHILE I
- MYSELF SAY THERE IS NAUGHT NOR OUGHT THERE BE NOTHING SO EXALTED ON
- THE FACE OF GOD'S GREY EARTH AS THAT PRINCE OF FOODS... THE MUFFIN!"

- Girl you thought he was a man

- As a result of him stuffin'
