The Bakicarus

Sell your Soul to the Baker
 
(0)
  [vote for,
against]

The Bakicarus (1435) gives the earliest if not the most complete description of what happens when making a Pact with the Baker. Supplied with friends who have already forsworn woiking, the applicant arrives at the 'bakery on a Monday morning very early and renounces Woik and the One, Stifling, and Demanding Boss. S/he pays homage to the Baker, drinks the blood of sacrificed children 'bakers, and subscribes to the rules of the 'baked, which cover many things from diet to surfing and googling. S/he expresses the desire to trade his soul for one or more favors from The Baking One, often croissants or custard for a specified number of years.
(_!_): "ß" is pronounced "ss". Use it wisparingly, or you'll have to cover your aß later, like my elf.

       As long as you don't mind it in Deutschmark.

       Yeah, but that isn't German enough.

       I used to have a German shepherd. Everybody stared when he raised a hind leg: "ßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßß"
