The Abbreviated Adventures of Mogey & Smush Volume CCLXXVIII

Mogey and Smush loved to muse about the great issues of the day over breakfast. So monumental were their musings that, had breakfast lasted all day, the world would be rid of many of its problems, as well as a great deal of its bacon, tea, and toast.

"Mogey," Smush intoned on one such occasion of musination. "What, in your opinion, is the very best thing to dunk a doughnut into?"

"Well put, Smush," Mogey replied. "There are many delights into which I might choose to dunk a doughnut: coffee, hot cocoa, even tea. But the very best thing to dunk a doughnut into is a bowl of marshmallow fluff."

"An astute observation indeed, Mogey," Smush responded. "But more mistaken you could not be. The very best think to dunk a doughnut into is a jar full of more doughnuts! If you shape your doughnut into a makeshift fishhook you can produce what leading doughnut scientists call a 'barrel of monkeys effect.' Sometimes you can pull out five more doughnuts in a single dunk!"
