The Boring Thread


Spoony

Recommended Posts

For the second time this month i have peeled and chopped up fresh carrots and have again, put them in the freezer to be consumed by me or guests at a later date. 

I have now broken my record for carrot chopping in a month from once to twice. I had to check this claim and i was happy to discover i was correct.

I am pleased about this.

Video phone calls.

My wife has now been on one with her son for 30 plus minutes, and I know she's bored shitless. 🤣

As I'm not involved it's phunnay but he's a boring ****, nice lad but loves the sound of his own voice.

I was loading the dishwasher last night and wondering what Ranking Roger was up to. Googled him today and he's dead.

Yep, about a year ago. Pretty sure he got an entry in the Deadpool thread.

In my opinion both Up and Brave should be top 5.

I would have 'up' higher up. Top 5 probably. There was a little old man that used to walk around my town that looked just like the old bloke from up. I wonder what happened to him? 

But, I would also have toy story as top dog. Brilliant film

How do you cut your sandwich/slice of toast? 

Horizontal cut across the middle? 

Diagonal cut? 

Quarters? (Surely only for children?) 

No cut at all? 

When I was a kid, I always went for the horizontal cut - and I was convinced that the 'round' half (from the top of the loaf) tasted better than the 'square' half. 

Nowadays I favour the diagonal - a more sophisticated and adult style, I feel. 

I thought I was the only person in the world that thought this. I'm 34 now and still think it. I still eat the 'square' half first to get it out the way so I have the nicer half second.

Which I guess also answers the question of which way I cut my sandwich.

I don’t know why I wrote that in past tense. I still think that. 
 

In fact when I cut toast in “half” I usually make the round half smaller so that the square half that tastes nicer is bigger. 
 

**** genius

Which leads quite nicely onto the subject of the sequence of eating items on your plate. I definitely favour the 'get it out of the way' approach. With a roast dinner for example, it's green veg first (I regard it as medicine, rather than actual food), saving the best (meat/potatoes/gravy) till last. My wife thinks I'm weird.

Couldn't agree more. I always save best till last. With every meal. For example.. spag bol will be spaghetti, followed by Bolognese, followed by all the melted cheesy bits, followed by a slice of garlic bread to wipe, followed by a second slice of garlic bread on its own. 

My wife thinks I'm weird too. I don't think either of us is weird. Anyone who doesn't eat in order of least favourite to favourite is weird, in my opinion.

I'm the same... if its fillet steak, chips and veg. I'll do the veg first, then the chips and leave the steak to the end. Eat the least enjoyable thing first and finish on the best. 

I never mix the food either... only one type of food of my fork at any given time.
