Hello, hello...is anybody there?

Patience, patience. People have lives and what-not.

My name is OB not Patience and the whatnot in question comes from her father's Scottish ancestors.

I see...

I say, what an absolutely spiffing unicorn talky that was! I did so enjoy it.
It was well nice.

Moving on...
Has anyone been tracking the accoutrements of office? I may still have the pawn stub for the sceptre, I think the crown is down the back of someone's couch, and I believe that some reprobate has made off with the cloak. Damn fine cloak it was, too, I remember last winter... Oh yes, I do remember. It's beside the Pink Cardboard Box of Maximum security in my winter woollies drawer, with my winter woolly drawers. As you were.

Right.

00 Vegetable, with almost no resemblance to broccoli.

Is it alive like Gordon?

There's possibly a family resemblance to some of the Gordons I've known, but it's more like Marley. Even more like Marley, because Marley was dead, to begin with. Dead as a doornail. Scrooge knew he was dead? Of course he did. How could it be otherwise? Scrooge and he were partners for I don't know how many years. Scrooge was his sole executor, his sole administrator, his sole assign, his sole residuary legatee, his sole friend and sole mourner.
Marley was dead. Yes, very like Marley

Executive summary:
01 Is it alive like Gordon? No.

Is it edible?

Edible? Are cute little fluffy bunnies edible?
Hell, yes.

01 Is it alive? No.
02 Is it edible? Yes.

That rules out sprouts, then

01 Is it alive? No.
02 Is it edible? Yes.
03 Is it just one thing, or is made up of lots of different things?

"Is it just one thing, or is made up of lots of different things?"

Rather difficult to answer yes/no to that, but a fair question.

Grammatically speaking, I'd feel comfortable saying "some sprouts and some broccoli," or saying "a sprout," but not "a broccoli."

Speaking even more grammatically, it has the syntactic property that any quantity of it is treated as an undifferentiated unit, and is fungible.
