What is your favorite flavor of Girl Scout cookies?

I haven’t had a girl scout cookie in ever so long :( Maybe the girl scouts don’t deliver around here…

I'm like Necko only I'm a bassist ukulele guitar synthesizer kazoo penguin and also everyone. Or is everyone me? Now I'm a confused bassist ukulele guitar synthesizer kazoo penguin everyone who is definitely not @Joe.  This has been true for 2016 & 2017 Sig-Badge.png but I may have to get more specific in the future.

Does anybody know why Pluto isn’t considered a planet anymore?

It hasn’t cleared its orbit of debris and it’s orbit is irregular and it is small and there are a bunch of Pluto like objects and they weren’t concerned planets so they made dwarf planets

@Oudis According to National Geographic it’s because its moon is too big.

Namely, Pluto doesn’t fit into the up-to-date definition of a planet because it doesn’t *dominate its orbit*. And that’s because its moon is as large as half of Pluto itself. Which apparently disqualifies dominance of Pluto.

What is your favorite Beatle-related “on-topic” section of the forum?

I'm Necko.  I'm like Ringo except I wear necklaces.

I'm also ewe2 on weekends.

Most likely to post things that make you go hmm... 2015, 2016, 2017.

I enjoy any topic that delves into their histories. I know all the songs and albums are historical, but I mean their life histories – stories of their childhood, Liverpool, Hamburg, etc…

@Ron Nasty started a great one on the places named in the original lyrics of ‘In My Life ‘ that I truly enjoyed. I like those far better than “rank the songs on album X”.

Necko howled out of curiosity 
What is your favourite Beatle-related “on-topic” section of the forum?

I like topics about Forumpudlians’ personal experiences with the music, like “Song fragments that really grab you”. The musicology stuff is neat, too, even if I only understand some of it. 

Ranking songs… favourites… not so much.
