#FeedingMyCompulsion: 'Logging' the #MembersMark Cookies I Got from a friend after a Game of #DirtySanta (the SFW Gift-Exchange) | @SamsClub @HolidappySite
After we played a game of Dirty Santa with some of our fellow Brain-Injury Conquerors, we traded the gifts we had ended up with. She took 'the device I probably wasn't going to use,' and gave me a box of Member's Mark European Chocolate Cookies (like those offered on the page you can get to through 'the emboldened link(s)' below); but first–after a mention of the free mining-software (giving us free Bitcoin in exchange for energy we're wasting anyway)–I want to teach you about those words.
And I find you understand words better if you see 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum into their Foundation)
As the Holidappy Site explains, the gift-exchange game is called "Dirty Santa" because gift-receivers are given the chance to #Steal other receivers' gifts (and risk having their own gifts #Stolen from them).
The word “Steal” is built on ancient words that mean "to Rob (Commit a Theft, Take & Carry-off |Clandestinely and -without Right or Leave (like when a Baseball-Player Advances from one Base to another without the Batter having |Hit the Ball)."
#Stole #Stealing #ManStealer
