Mythbusters: Can't polish a... what?

Basically, Jamie applied furniture stain to his ball of poo, and Adam was adamant that “polishing” meant to bring out a natural luster to the substance without using an artificial stain or polishing agent.

Oh, merde.

Psst - bird is the word.

That’s what I inferred.

As I’ve inferred, it was “shit,” not “turd.”

I have to pick that nit. I shall restrain myself, since we’re not in the Pit.

Adam was telling Jamie that they were going to test a certain adage, but the Discovery network bleeped the last bit. Jamie then asked, “What about…?” but someone censored the word again (the twit!). I don’t specifically recall if the word “a” was left unbleeped, but it’s pretty clear what the two offensive words were… at least, from where I sit.

Not that I give a whit.

I think that I shall never see,
A turd with polishability.
Jamie thought wax was just a nit,
Frankly I don’t give a shit.

I actually liked this episode, and I think I’m going to give a try at that Japanese Mud Ball thing.

Seemed kinda cool, in a geeky “I have to much free time” kinda way.

Eveybody’s heard about the turd
t-t-t-turd, turd, turd, t-turd’s the word
a well a, t-turd, turd, turd …

This was one of their more lame episodes. They are clearly running out of things to do.

I’d be more impressed if they tested my favorite saying: “If you’re forced to eat a turd, it’s best not to nibble at it.”
