I made Christmas cookies!

They taste kind of funny, though.

I'm guessing it's a clbuttic mistake.

I don't know what worries me the most... that they mis-titled it, or that people need an electric cookie press.

I love this, because it's actually plausible. I mean, put a different nozzle, and use cookie dough instead of caulk. It sounds like a Jeff Foxworthy joke.

I just checked and the OP's picture IS of the cookie press. The B&D caulk gun looks somewhat different http://www.bestcovery.com/black-decker-cg100-2-speed-powered-caulk-gun.

I don't own an electric cookie press because I don't particularly care for electric cookies.

Sweet Jesus! Leading a horse to water and then making him drink just got a whole lot easier!

I was going to make a joke about going off half-caulked, but it was only half-baked.

Well, I would never put my caulk in an electric press, but whatever floats your boat...

Surely it's obvious. The title error is a boring bog-standard error; the hand-operated* electric cookie press is a mind-blowingly pointless invention.

In industrial biscuit production electric presses do have an obvious raison d'être.

I'm really tempted to see if there are any published studies about why such errors occur so often.

I mean, is this a data entry error? An off-by-one error? A fundamental error in which people don't know how to formulate instructions (e.g., the old grade-school exercise where you ask people to write down direction of how to make a sandwich, then have them follow someone else's directions exactly)?

WHY? WHY MISTER ANDERSON? WHY DOES IT PERSIST?

I spent 6 months researching and writing that study. Unfortunately, I forgot to title it, so it's impossible to find.

EDIT: ALTERNATE PUNCHLINE

I spent 6 months researching and writing that study. Look in Lexus Nexus under "DangerFyre 3: Dragons Rising".

"These cookies taste terrible! Is this supposed to be maple icing or something?"

"No, I made those with my new cookie press. This flavor is "Liquid Nails"

Spritz Cookies are awesome.
