Weird.

So I brought in some blueberry muffins (the ones that turned lavender because I didn't coat the blueberries in flour first) for my co-workers and a co-worker just came up to me complaining of the weird texture around the muffin 'stump', how it was kind of fiberous and weird. I was of course conserned because I couldn't think what would result in

some days, I wish Darwin were alive. If he were, I'd make him spend a day with me at work, and when the day was over, I'd look at him and say: "Charles, survival of the fittest may have flown in your day with peppered moths and apes, but in my world, evolution has ceased in favor of survival of the absolute stupidist."

I swear to god, we hand hold people to the point where this shite happens. An adult male should fucking KNOW that muffins have wrappers.

AND WHO FUCKING COMPLAINS ABOUT TEXTURE WHEN SOMEONE GIVES THEM FREE FUCKING MUFFINS???? Are you a goddamned bakery clerk for him to file a complaint with? You politely gave him a free home made muffin and he came back to you to complain about it? How completely uncivil. Had it been me, I would have either eaten around the textured bits, or just not eaten it. But had it been me, I would have noticed the BLOODY WRAPPER!!

I hope eating purple and gold muffin tin liners makes him constipated.

/end rant.

I totally agree with your rant, part of me wishes we had more large man-eating preditors roaming the street because I totally think it would reduce the chances of me having to deal with people like this.
Also, this isn't the first time I've had someone complain about free food (which seriously, if you don't like it don't take it) I brought in chocolate chip cookies once and a co-worker came to inform me that his was a bit burnt on the side and I should pay more attention when I was baking. I wanted to throw him through a cubicle, but instead I said "How about tomorrow you bring in some and well see how much better they are." Which shut him up pretty good.

that is frikkin' hilarious!
i hope your lack of words was due to UNCONTROLLABE LAUGHTER.

I know! The stupidity of some of my co-workers baffles me.
Plus, I couldn't help but wonder what would cause a muffin to turn gold and purple stripped? Because if I was given food (even free food) that was gold and purple stripped I don't think I'd be eating it.
