AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the hypothetical scenario where individuals lose the potential to consume cookies, raising questions about the broader implications for society. It explores how this loss could impact various aspects of life, including the economy, politics, and social interactions. The conversation suggests that without cookies, there may be a shift in consumer behavior, leading to a marketing push for alternatives like waffles. The phrase "Carpe doughnut" indicates a playful acceptance of change, emphasizing the need to adapt and find new sources of enjoyment and hope in a cookie-less world.

If I do not have potential for a cookie. To eat a cookie or a cookie of any kind.

Where does that leave the monetary and political world ? Not to mention the mating world.

Extend this condition to every man, woman, child. So they no longer can eat cookies or have consumer cookies. The potential for that is gone.

What happens now ?

Or more specifically, Where is hope ?
