When Girl Scout cookie season starts up in your neighborhood, those earnest young saleswomen bearing boxes of sweets may be armed with a new secret weapon: a mobile credit-card reader attached to their smartphones.
That's right people. The Girl Scouts have firmly entered the digital age, and our waistlines may never recover.
Think of the implications: Before, if you saw a tempting table laden with Samoas and Thin Mints outside the grocery store, being low on cash could prevent you from buying a box or two, or five, or 10.
Not anymore.

The girl scouts have been corrupted and are now run by lesbian feminists and godless evil harlots and vex and brainwash the minds of female children. This is a fact and well known by those who monitor the depraved ways of the godless left.
I will not buy or eat any of their cookies anymore.

This just adds to me list of reasons that I cannot buy their cookies...
1. I cannot support what they teach the girls...
2. The cookies are not that good...
3. The cookies are way over priced...
4. I do not use credit cards...

Fine, I will simply tell the little girls and their mommies that the GS will not get another dime from me or my family as long as they have a left-ward bent on social issues.

I miss those chocolate mints the Campfire Girls used to sell about 45 years ago - $1 a box.

The best humor has a grain a truth ... The girl scouts broke my wrist 7 years back ... I was playing line tag while waiting for my daughter .. They can be evil when they see a purpose ... Evil...

Evil...In the last few months I heard some lib (Bill Maher???) use the phrase, "the banality of evil"....The phrase sorta stuck in my craw...waiting for a chance to regurgitate it back on a unsuspecting reader...
