    He has bigger problems. His (and the house’s) “Best by” date was a month ago.

      It could have been much worse. He (and the house) could have been eaten, eaten by an entity made of… something unfathomable

      Well, at least that will make him tougher and less likey to be eaten.

    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.

    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

      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?

        Ok but gingerbread is cooked, cooked human flesh smells good ignoring where it came from, from what I hear.

        But that is almost worse if you think about it.

        If I entered a house made of human flesh, I’m sure the smell alone would make me gag.

        Are you sure? It’s rotting flesh that smells gross. If the building material isn’t rotting, would it smell bad? Or what if it were dehydrated to be able to last a long time, like an unseasoned jerky? Or maybe even tanned, like leather?

    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.
