Ode to my Sister… and the greatest pastry debate of our time

We live in a society of finite labels and distinct categories. Just when you thought we had named everything… just when you thought we had it all figured out… a question arises. This question may seem trivial to some, but, then again, so did the whole “the world is flat” thing. It takes the greatest of thinkers to bring such a question to the surface and attempt to find an answer. With that, I give you… drum roll please… the great debate… the impossible quandary… the groundbreaking thesis… of… drum roll again… MUFFIN…. versus... CUPCAKE!

SuperAdri: still so excited abotu this muffin
SuperAdri: it like made my day
Lyss120: what muffin?
SuperAdri: from the mba
SuperAdri: gotta keep up with me here pisser
SuperAdri: oh pisser
Lyss120: haha, oh
Lyss120: i thought it was a cupcake
SuperAdri: oh ya
SuperAdri: whatever
SuperAdri: same thing
SuperAdri: ya, it is more of a cupcake
Lyss120: ha!
Lyss120: see
SuperAdri: seriously
Lyss120: i'm not stupid
SuperAdri: is there a huge difference
Lyss120: yes
SuperAdri: like i feel liek you should have been able to figure out what i meant
Lyss120: one is a dessert and one is a breakfast treat
SuperAdri: figure it out!! you know
SuperAdri: naw
SuperAdri: i would totally eat a cupcake for breakfats
Lyss120: haha
SuperAdri: it doesn't have icing on it
Lyss120: maybe YOU would
SuperAdri: so it's tricky
Lyss120: oh
Lyss120: hmmm... yes, tricky

SuperAdri: it's more of a small muffin in a cupcake wrapper
Lyss120: what's a cupcake wrapper though?
SuperAdri: a small muffin wrapper, you know, like that folded paper on the bottom that you peel off and it forms a circle
Lyss120: oh
SuperAdri: you see
Lyss120: sort of
SuperAdri: haha

Lyss120: but i still think there are differences in consistency
Lyss120: like a muffin is more oats or blueberry
Lyss120: and a cupcake is chocolate or vanilla
SuperAdri: haha, but this isn't really cakey
Lyss120: damn you
SuperAdri: haha
SuperAdri: this is funny
Lyss120: ahhH!!

Lyss120: no icing, it's not cakey, yet has a cupcake wrapper
SuperAdri: yes
Lyss120: is it a muffin or a cupcake? we dont know
SuperAdri: kyle thinks it's a weak muffin
Lyss120: LOL
SuperAdri: cause it doesn't fold over
SuperAdri: you know
Lyss120: that's good, i like that
SuperAdri: like there's no "muffin top"
Lyss120: it doesnt fold over?
Lyss120: oh, i see
SuperAdri: ya
SuperAdri: it's a tricky little treat
Lyss120: Hahahha!!
SuperAdri: haha
Lyss120: we should make a list... one side will be all of the muffin attributes, and one side can be all of the cupcake attributes
SuperAdri: ya
SuperAdri: ok, off to econ

the classic debate. i would just like to say that what was discussed was really a combination of the two treats. there is the classic muffin and the classic cupcake which are very different. the subject at hand created quite the confusion in this new age with people branching out from the usual. it is really a reflection of how society is changing and melding.
