ME HAVE COOKIE
A ransom note of note
A light-hearted one today, because everything is terrible and it’s Friday. Enjoy your weekend.
One day in January of 2013, employees at Germany’s most famous biscuit maker, Bahlsen, noticed that the giant gold-plated cookie that once hung above the door of their headquarters was now missing. Days later, the following ransom note, signed by someone claiming to be the Cookie Monster, was sent to a local newspaper along with a photograph of said Muppet holding the missing item. The bizarre heist made the news, and quickly captured the imagination of the German public.
Bahlsen’s management eventually complied with the demands by donating thousands of cookies to various charities, and eventually the golden cookie was sent home.
ME HAVE COOKIE. YOU WANT COOKIE. THAT WHY YOU MUST GIVE COOKIE TO ALL CHILDREN AT BULT HOSPITAL ONE DAY IN FEBRUARY. BUT THEY MUST BE COOKIE WITH MILK CHOCOLATE, NOT COOKIE WITH DARK CHOCOLATE, AND NOT COOKIE WITH NO CHOCOLATE. AND A GOLDEN COOKIE FOR CHILDREN'S CANCER WARD. OTHERWISE, IT NOT WORK!
