Mr. Dreadful - But really I'm not actually your friend, but I am...

I'll see your 'hold music' and raise you 'autotune'.

Hmmm. Autotune.

Of course, there is always nose hair too.

I MAY have been a bit previous with my declaration about telephone hold music.

Don't be silly, you can't autotune nose hair... Unless its nose hair from a Norweigian nose flutists nose, that can be autotuned, I think. Well, so long as its VST and not DXi, otherwise it does unplesent tings to the Norweigians nose flutists toes, for an as yet u unknown reason... I think smiley - erm

I have always heard it said, but have never confirmed it visually,
owing to an inability to focus on small details in such situations,
that curled toes are a sign of sexual arousal.

But I digress.

2legs - Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side...

oo... when I curl my toes, the joints on them all crack... I must listen out for that noise... next time... err smiley - blushsmiley - snork Mind, my back tends to click too depending how it moves, so hearing a click might not be definitive evidence of toe curling smiley - snorksmiley - blush anyhow.... the screams probably block the noise of clicking joints, backs and toes, out... smiley - winkeyesmiley - snork

clzoomer- a bit woobly

Not checking backlog, did anyone mention ear hair trimmers? Noisy things that hurt like hell.

New Version potato peelers. Why re-invent a perfectly good regular potato peeler? I've seen ones that fit on one finger like a ring, ones that cover everything that doesn't touch the potato so they're 'safe' and ones that rotate the potato so the peeler can remove one long string of peel. The first is awkward, the second jams up and the last is just silly. smiley - tongueout
