I made chocolate chip cookies today and brought one downstairs to where my main computer is and ate it - they really turned out good. So I've been sitting here wishing I had brought more than one cuz I don't don't feel like going back upstairs, then just now I look over to the side and boom, half of the cookie is still left. Sweet! And when I say these turned out really good I mean awesome.

Pro tip, if you dont eat it now, you can rediscover it again in 30 minutes. Endless cookies!

Well I still have half of the second half left, so that's still a viable plan. Downside: not getting to eat cookies! But people are coming over in an hour so I'm gonna get off my ass and go upstairs now anyway.

Keep halving and you'll have that cookie forever, so still good.

Calculus!! Crowd goes wild

Zeno’s cookie.

You only eat half of however much you have available at the time. This way, you’ll never run out.

I don't know who downvoted you. Probably someone without a cookie....

I just looked over to the side because of this post, and realized I have a peanut butter cup still waiting to be eaten, so thanks!

Best news I've ever seen in this community 🤘

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Thanks, almost didn't post this because it seems so trivial.

Which one cookie?
