Please tell me what is up with the MUFFINS?

[puppets_etc]

OK, I keep reading about MUFFINS this and MUFFINS that, my curiosity is getting the best of me.

****WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?****
(by the way, that's not yelling it's whining)

The food so great, it deserved it's own thread...

There is no point to the muffin story that I'm aware of. But, what do I know. I'm still considered a newbie.

Ummm, Muffins.

(Trust me EVERYONE has asked this at one time or other.)

Every couple of months someone posts about this and asks the very same question. I guess we just don't have a complete answer! LOL!!

I always figured it was the way you described Muppets when you were hungry.

Muppets - Muffins, both very simillar

I just thought it was people saying muppets with a REALLY Bad speech impediment!

I believe it was Cory (beaker) who coined this phrase.

Muffin, as I posted in the "New Members" thread, means to take something completely off-course, or to invoke silliness. For example, if you take a thread from its original subject into something completely different (and usually very silly), you've "Muffined" a thread. Or, if you wish to draw some one into something silly, you could say something to the effect of "have a muffin! ".

So, quit your whinnin' and have a freakin' Muffin already!

THANK YOU! Whining has ceased and desist-ed (whatever!) Now was that so hard to explain?

So basically, every thread on this forum has been "muffed" at some point. (at least the ones I've managed to read so far!)
