This thread is worse than cattle teats!

Yep - I’m with you.

I just don’t believe that someone could be that willfully mean by accident.

So, I’m thinking about moving up in the world and getting my first colander. The problem is, I don’t know what they are called in Japanese. Also, should I get the kind with or without tentacles?

please leave the thread until you have purchased said colander. possession is a requirement for admittance.

I’ll lend you one of mine Autolycus. Would you like aluminium, enamel, or one of the proletariat plastic jobs?

Whew, just in the nick of time. Can I take enamel and imagine it’s ivory?

Why would you want to pretend that it’s ivory? Are you one of those mutha-fucking-elephant-loving-gun-toting-PETA people or something??

Oh no, heaven forbid. I merely thought that as an upper-crust socialite such as yourself the enamel most likely came from the teeth of all your over-the-hill manservants. Am I wrong?

Ahem, we don’t have manservants here in Orstralya.

We’re an ‘equal opportunity’ nation, so we don’t give a fuck where our enamel comes from.

:wink:

But…that’s really frickin’ interesting! You really should start an “Ask the Child of Colander Privilege” thread.

But only if both “collandar” and “privelidge” are misspelled.

Word.

i have decided to kill this thread. this post ought to do it.

Whoops.

Please see post #509! :smiley:

a plague o’ both your houses!

And evenly spaced holes i’ all your salad bowls!

Oh, sure, appeal to authority! Logic 101: Just because you have two colanders doesn’t mean your claims are valid!

I’m actually thinking of starting a thread with the title “Ask the child of a woman who did all her culinary cutting with cheap, dull steak knives, who—through hard work and dedication—threw off the shackles of his low-class upbringing to work his way up to a set of midrange ceramic knives”. Either that or “ask the child of a failed used car salesman”.

Actually, I think it does. Just think of all of the colander-related aphorisms. You know:

“Two colanders make a right” and “Colander might makes colander right” and “A colander in the hand is worth any amount of your fancy-pants logic in an Australian desert.”

I wish Ms. Bluth would come back…
