and a half-eaten muffin laid between them

[Freak Show]

is it laid or lain or is it lie or maybe lay??? Either way, i never thought i would come across this scene in my entire life. i park my car on the street and i'm walking down the block to my apt. when i see these two men (homeless for sure) who were laying right in the middle of the side walk. now, i'm not talkin curled up next to the building in the fetal position or something. no, these poor bastards were sprawled the fuck out and LITERALLY there was a half eaten muffin between them. did i miss the battle for the pastry by minutes? Did they bump heads together and knocked each other unconscious as they bent over to get it?? Could it have been a muffin handgrenade that sent them flying a few feet??? The world may never know. All i know is i still find it hard to believe some of the shit i see in this city. life in the big city i spose.

this is true. not a happyscrappy story for your amusement. that was actually the scene. i like to call it abstract art sometimes.

cap was gone. it was mostly broken up but definitely the remnants were of the stump. blueberry, i think.

see, that's where the mystery lies. if one chooses the muffin handgrenade theory it was surely turned to shrapnel. if one ponders the battle theory, it could have been torn off and cast aside during the tussle. maybe i just didn't see where it landed.

of course, scientists, always coming up with new theories, could speculate that they both gorged on the cap until they passed out from severe insulin shock. however, i like the handgrenade theory myself.

Your theory fails becuase no one would allow the tasty muffin top to be discarded, afer all it's the only part of a muffin that matters!!
