        @northernnarwhal @critialcloudkicker She is "disturbed" by the shape. Not even making this up.

          @thelastgherkin As in the way a croissant is folded over, or just the general crescent shape?

            @northernnarwhal The crescent shape, I think. She conceded that pain au chocolat or something could be more palatable but she was still put off from trying one.

              @thelastgherkin Hm, I don't I've ever met someone with that kind of disposition towards croissants, but I can understand where they're coming from.

          @thelastgherkin Remember Legend of Zelda on the NES, I always thought that the "power bracelet" was secretly a croissant. And then I found the manual. ... Anyway, yes, they look freaky.
