Actually, I must correct you. Cory prolly did post the phrase "to muffin" a thread, but it was actually *me* who came up with it in a chat with him where we were complaining about how so many threads get side-tracked into meaningless chatter about all kinds of stuff, including (and at the time, mostly) MUFFINS.
But really, we have Jackie and Emmy (and to a lesser degree Byron and Joggy) to thank for the actual proliferation of muffin talk on the forum. I don't know how they latched onto it, but I know there was a thread about how great muffins are, and that was followed up with more and more statements about muffins (including some sexual inuendo which most likely was edited out, haha) until it just got, well, to the point where people have to ask what the muffin is going on?!
