Discussion thread for the "Polls only" thread (Part 3)

True!

i call it a bench scraper.

Yeah, I think the terms are interchangeable, but when I worked in a bakery we called it a bench knife because we used it to cut dough as well as scrape the wooden countertop.

I call it a dough knife or a bench acraper.

I call mine a scraper, i think. Probably a dough scraper. I mostly use it to scrape the counter clean after making pastry. But i might also use it to cut dough.

Maybe i have one and use it regularly, and don’t really have a name for it. :laughing:

I don’t consider it a spatula, though.

In my book, these two are just variations on the spatula in picture #2, and for all intents and purposes are the same kind of spatula.

When we do food kitchen we cook for about 220 people, in these giant rectangular pots. Sometimes things burn, and the kitchen has one of those large spatulas, and it’s perfect for scraping the shit out of that. I’m not sure what the use is otherwise. Paul Bunyan flapjacks?

I know that the item in picture 2 is not actually a spatula (it’s a pancake turner), but I call it one anyway.

The thing in picture 2 I call a pancake turner.

And I choose being single over either of those marriages.

huh, that pancake turner simply wouldn’t work for a lot of the things I use my small spatula for. And it’s probably better for flipping pancakes.

I am sorry but the Holy canon disagrees-

Came for the Spatula City clip. Was not disappointed.

You’ll flip over their inventory!

Exactly. Why settle when you can have no attraction or love between two flaky, irresponsible people?

But they’ve all got flat blades for flipping or at least lifting things, as opposed to a flexible rubber blade for scraping things. That’s what I consider to be the main distinction.

It is a tough job, but somebody had to do it!:grinning_face:

My third option for sitting on public toilets is to make sure I evac somewhere which isn’t public (if on the road that means my hotel room, which is quasi-public but presumed to have been disinfected by the maid). I think I’ve had to sit down for a crap in a 100% public place maybe once in 25 years now.

I think that’s one of the poll options.

Yes, one of the generic poll options, and, in the grand tradition of this thread, I am explaining in detail what my specific choice was there.

Ah. I misunderstood you. That was the seventh choice, not the third, and I thought you were explaining an “other” vote; though come to think of it that wasn’t a third choice in that poll either.
