Distressed gingerbread man is one of my favourite facial expressions
Gingerbread man, gingerbread man
Doing the things a gingerbread can
What's he like, it's not important
Gingerbread man
Is he a dot, or is he a speck?
When he's underwater, does he get wet
Or does the water get him instead?
Nobody knows gingerbread man
Triangle Man hates Gingerbread Man.
Whelp, gonna have that song stuck in my head for days.
The house is made of inanimate gingerbread, while he's a gingerbread golem.
Then he is silent, as he has a Realization: he is One with the Universe.
He is enlightened. He has become a Bruddah.
Breaddah
How am I supposed to read an image that hasn't been blurred by countless reposts??
He has bigger problems. His (and the house's) "Best by" date was a month ago.
Mine too
It could have been much worse. He (and the house) could have been eaten, eaten by an entity made of... something unfathomable
Wow almost 9 years old, but I hadn't seen this before so thanks for posting.
You're pretty articulate for an almost 9 year old, well done!
Flesh, clearly.
Anyone who has made ginger bread men and ginger bread houses from scratch understands this. The ~~dough~~ flesh is the same for both.
The real conundrum is why they have bread in their names.
The gingerbread man lives in what he believes to be a gingerbread universe, where all matter is gingerbread.
I don't worry that my home and my body are both made of matter. The gingerbread man thinks similarly, but the "matter" to him is what we know to be gingerbread.

Gingerbread, da ba dee da ba di
Da ba dee da ba di, da ba dee da ba di
Da ba dee da ba di, da ba dee da ba di
Da ba dee da ba di, da ba dee da ba di
do gingerbread men make miniture houses out of brick and mortar during the holidays?
They make houses out of human flesh
Run run, fast as you can...
I'm more wondering about the smell. If I entered a house made of human flesh, I'm sure the smell alone would make me gag. But if I smell a gingerbread house, it smells good.
So if a gingerbread man were inside a gingerbread house, would he gag? Or would it smell just as pleasant to him as it does to us?
And would smelling another gingerbread man be like smelling foul body odor? Or again, would it smell good?
