Veil of virtue hung to hide your method ... -- #358
Sad news from the Land of Fudge today: Chocolate Jesus got canceled. Yeah, I'm pretty broken up about it too. The interesting thing to note about the article is that apparently Chocolate Jesus was also anatomically correct and featured a fully visible chocolate schlong and some chocolate nuts (no confirmation whether they were almond).
I won't comment further on the sad saga of Chocolate Jesus, lest I offend some of those "Christian sensibilities" that the Catholic League has their pious undies in a bunch over. And frankly, I think it was stupid for an artist to carve a six-foot naked Jesus out of milk chocolate and not think that some people might be upset over this. [Insert joke about Chocolate Jesus = outrageous while pedophile priests = concerning.] Something something, freedom of speech, Chocolate Jesus spoken about in Revelations, can't we all get along, blah blah blah.
Anyway, all this discussion about Chocolate Jesus makes me hungry, which brings up my next question: What is the cut-off age for it being acceptable to get an Easter basket from your parents? I still get one. I'm 33 (ironically same age as non-chocolate Jesus when he died). I still want one, especially if it has those shitty hollow boxed bunnies with the candy eyes and clever names like Fuzzy Candytail or Mostly Sucrose. I'm not talking about coloring eggs or anything stupid like that. Just getting some candy from your Mom and Dad, in a decorative basket, on a Sunday morning. That's still OK, right? Right?
