Ream It! or: household tools that make you giggle

I was making tzatziki tonight for our dinner tomorrow, and I was using my citrus reamer. I honestly couldn’t get along without it, but every time I whip it out of the drawer to ream some poor fruit, I get a mad case of the evil giggles.

I also have a ceramic fish-shaped ginger grater. I call it “fish grater” which brings to mind the disturbing image of grated fish instead of ginger, and then I laugh again.

I know. I’m weird. My kitchen is more like a mad scientist’s laboratory.

The “fish grater” and fruit reamer always make me giggle, but then again so does the meat tenderizer (the meat pounder). :smiley:
When getting out a spatula, I always get a laugh thanks to the movie UHF (Spatula City)
I also find whisks hilarious, but have no idea why. :o

In the garden, there is the dibbler. It’s a thingy that you use to poke holes in the soil for seeds and bulbs. Dibbler always makes me giggle.

I have this egg seperator. Sometimes I make an angel food cake just so I can gross out my husband.

I am giggling at the same time as I’m repulsed!

It’s not a household tool, just a garden variety tool, but I alway smile when I hear the words “bastard file” I also have vague memories of a single panel comic strip, in which a handma on a tv show prepairs to fix something. He is describing the tools he will use, and each one of them has an offensive name.

Can’t overlook the melon baller!

That is incredibly, hysterically vile.

That’s such a great link, Marlitharn! Thanks!

I found this on there after some more browsing. It looks so awesome. I wonder if it works on tofu dogs?
