Couselor Ed,
Aren't you going to ask him for his button back?
This thread reminds me very little of that other thing.
Sorry - I was distracted by the goat licking my feet...
And a button back is a good thing -- it keeps the trap door closed without the scratchiness of a zipper.
Oh no, sir -- a true gentleman would tuck the flap in when not buttoned.
A gentleman would never let his flap dangle in the wind, he should keep it neatly tucked away.
Additionally, when untucking it in order to button it back up, it could theoretically serve a second purpose in personal hygiene.
Do you guys actually understand yourselves? It might be because I'm Dutch, but I have little to no idea what you're talking about, except for the goats of course. This happens to me in the Quip of the Day thread as well, those puns and jokes are beyond me.
Anyway, as for the chopsticks, if they were hollow, you might use them as a straw and still eat the soup, except for the chunks. The chunks, however, can be eaten with the chopsticks.
It does strike me, however, as a particularly curious habit to eat with chopsticks when there are obvious and non-pointy solutions to bringing food to the mouth.
I don't think it's because your dutch persay, it's more the ready availability of drugs down the road from you that's done it :)
To be fair Laurens it took me a minute to work it out, a "button back" is a set of all in one long underwear, that has a button down flap over the bum area so that you can go to the loo without removing the whole garment.
And with regards to quip of the day I occasionally have a squiz at it and am sometimes confused by some of the posts.
I suppose chopsticks are preferable to hands if clean water and toilet paper isn't readily available. :)
If I had to use chopsticks in that manner, I would prefer them to be the traditional solid ones rather than hollow -- that could get messy.
And definitely not the Japanese pointy ones either.
On the other hand, the hollow chopstick for soup is a good idea, but I find it much easier to simply pick up the bowl and slurp.
BTW, Laurens, I am still pondering the goats licking my feet.
Wow ... just Wow.
Elephants wear gym shoes.
I'm certain that my dishwasher is not a file cabinet, but that doesn't stop me from taking out the garbage...
I'm pretty sure my file cabinet is not a dishwasher, but it does make for a handy hiding spot.
Perhaps, but considering the early stages of the research we're at, chances are you don't return from that altered state of consciousness. And doctors might call that state braindead.
This is brilliant :rofl2: Redefines plagiarism. I am considering asking your permission to copy that line into my signature, but I'm not sure about historic copyright issues that might arise.
Oh besides, I was just kidding, the Pointy Picnic Pot (got the spelling right this time) does not exists.
Time to go to work but my television signal won't let me out the door.
Does anyone else here like Harley Davidsons?
