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

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.

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

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.

it you want to bringto your eyes, dont buy those fancy gadgits,pull all that unwanted hair out with your fingers, nose hair
As for spuds, wash um, leave skin on,cut them into rough cut sizes, oil um,sprinkle a few herbs, bang them into a hot tray and in the oven they go, served with a sprinkling of strong

I'm constantly flexing my toes to stimulate circulation in them. Beats hell out of early morning toes like ice sickles.
