I think what the sticking point is here is that everyone loves all cookies, so it's really hard to be self critical on this. You anti-semitic peanut butter cookie enthusiasts could never admit the fact that given a Schrödinger's cookie jar full of random cookies, (say chocolate chip, sugar, oatmeal and peanut butter cookies), when that jar is revealed to have 3 cookies left in it, they will all be peanut butter.

Basically, Chocolate Chip Über Alles. And yeah, that's right. Two fucking umlauts!!

This argument makes no sense. If you filled a jukebox with equal numbers of Celine Dion, Elton John, and Jay Reatard discs, and told everyone who went by that they could take the disc of the song they played, the jukebox would be 100% Jay Reatard within minutes. Does this mean the stuff that was taken first was better? Hells no.

Does anyone else wonder what this thread used to be about before Junk changed it?
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

Well I know that liking chocolate chip cookies leaves one open to criticism from afar... so I think it was really brave of him to start this one.

Of course.  I thought he was talking only about that one sentence.  Of course, I had also completely forgotten about "Schrödinger's" in the preceding paragraph. 

In other words, I should have kept my damn fingers still.

It is an honor to have been corrected by the best internet nazi in the business and still prevail somehow. Please correct me more, because I love learning (no sarcasm).

My totally senseless hypothesis posted in the proximity of a bunch of statisticians was doomed to failure from conception, I know, but peanut butter cookies are still the most disappointing cookies of all time. In your heart, you know it too. I defy you to turn that razor sharp intellect inwards and tell me a worse cookie. Just one cookie! I defy you all to do it!

I like peanut butter cookies, BTW. They're a lot harder to get right than chocolate chip (most of the time, they're like little chunks of dried-out particle board), but if you get them from someone who knows what they're doing, peanut butter cookies can be pretty darn good.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

It's borderline, I'll give you that. I'm too far into this thrilling cookie debate to change stream now though.

In the interest of full disclosure, I don't like raisins, so my response is slanted. I admit this now because I don't want it popping up on Fox News in the 11th hour and ruining my credibility.

You're crazy! PB cookies are delish.

It's those soft sugar cookies that can go straight to hell. Blech.

Any cookie with ginger in it.

And I defy you to say that about one of my sister's delicious ginger cookies replete with crystallized ginger and pumpkin seeds.

And this is post 3000.  If there was any doubt that I'm a loser, this should dispel it.

I've had some pretty good ginger sugar cookies, so I can't agree with that. Sarah's sister's cookies sound pretty great too.

In conclusion, ginger > raisins
I'll probably go into the wee hours.
