If it's a donut, it's a chocolate covered bar. If it's choux pastry filled with cream, it's an eclair. Subtle difference. ETA: Or what lasagnasshole said
I LOVE crullers. Stop tempting me. Crullers and apple fritters are my favorite.

I don't get it. If you call that an eclair, what do you call a REAL eclair? You have to distinguish between the two. And if we're going to have a term have two different meanings, long john is cleat the better choice, as the risk of confusion between a donut and long underwear is far less than the risk of confusion between a donut and a French pastry.
OMG, this shit is cracking me up. Clearly baked goods are serious business around these parts! (FTR, I voted the only obviously correct answer, filled long john).
Look, you uppity, bougie assholes, I call a fucking pastry whatever the fuck I need to call it to get that nice little lady behind the damned dunkin donuts counter to pick that up with a delicate piece of paper and drop it in the waxed bag. You know, that lovely bit of dressing it hangs out in for the split second it takes me to sip my caramel latte hot before I rip open the bag and pour all of the donutness in.my.mouth.

I really, really want a donut now. It is pazcki day here...not a good day to want a donut. Although, to be honest, I don't really care for pazcki anyway.

I said "eclaire" for the poll but it doesnt look like a very good one. HA.
Noooooooo! Boston cremes are round.
Thats why I said "if" its a doughnut! I know doughnuts dont have to be round but then they probably suck.
I have never heard of a filled long john or creamstick or anything else. I'm sitting with HBC on this one. I'll use whatever term makes the damn thing mine.
Outside of dunkin donuts, whatever, man. Don't care. DUNKIN DONUTS!
My dunkin donuts doesn't have eclairs or long johns. They just have bavarian creme donuts, which is fine by me. Also lemon filled...mmm. And boston cream. I like those too. And maple frosted... and crullers. And and and and, all the goddamn donuts.
