Which would win, Butter Cookies or Peanut Brownies

No outside influence, no weaponry, just cookie vs brownie, which would win?

Well, naturally, the butter cookies would be more powerful, but do they have the WILL to win?

Butter cookies have a tendency to be slow to anger and are always trying to avoid conflict. Brownies interpret this as weakness, and a reluctance to fight.

So, if the butter cookie believes the sacrifice is worth it, the brownies have no chance.

Colonel,

Yes indeed.

Chocolate milk is surely the answer, with black currants better still.

Too small a sample. More voters...with the RIGHT opinion...are needed.

The polls have been reopened to take into account absentee ballots, fraud, and other things of that nature.

EDIT: Now that I look at who voted for who, there actually WAS fraud. Somebody managed to vote twice...except it didn't really change the result since he voted for both sides.

This is like asking which is better, the M14 or FN SLR.

Some questions just have no "Right" answer. I voted according to my own prejudices...
