The answer is brownies.
My friend, who is being bought off by Big Cookie, insists cookies are better because "the best cookie is better than the best brownie." Absurd. You can go looking all your life for the best cookie and come across a million stale sugar cookies. Meanwhile you go to your sibling's middle school graduation and suddenly your whole sad life is lit up by the presence of a plate of perfectly serviceable brownies.
I suppose I can understand her argument, though. If I were offered to choose between a box of brownies and a box of those Lofthouse-style cookies from the grocery store, I'd choose the cookies! But the
point is the average sample of each: you cannot live life seeking an endless peak. No; you have to consider the average. And the average brownie is a far rarer delicacy than the average cookie. A cookie is more of a gamble. Life isn't a gamble.

My friend and I engaged in a Twitter diva-off for the soul of the sweet treat. Her desperation in the face of my nonchalance assured me I had prevailed - however, I
did lose sight of her argument along the way. I made a graphic presuming to convert her to the side of the brownie, not considering that she
did concede to enjoying brownies. It kills the fun to have holes poked in my argument, so I did not reply to her last statement.
Don't the brownies look so good in the graphic, though?
Which is your favorite?
