    Ketamine or Kelloggs depending on which special K you're on about...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,010 ✭✭✭Dr_Teeth


    Ketamine! oh wait.. Kelloggs?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,698 ✭✭✭InFront


    K is the symbol for curvature, so... curvature, perhaps? Since they have the whole bodyweight aspect.

    Or just Kelloggs, which is more likely:)

    I do not care. Ever since a couple of flatmates held me down, superglued a sh1tload of the feckers to my lips and told everyone I had herpes from a fleabag at a nightclub which shall remain nameless, I have been unable to look at a box of the stuff without turning into a screaming mess of profanities a la Father Jack. I'm told I looked a bit like him at the time too.

    Great fun at Tescos. The therapy is helping though.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    That Kellogg dude was a complete wanker.

    On a related note, what do they do with the regular "K"?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 799 ✭✭✭Schlemm


    Do we have a Vitamin K?
    Yes we do, vitamin K is needed for certain blood clotting factors to work properly. It is made by intestinal bacteria and does not need supplementation, unless you have certain diseases or have overdosed on warfarin.

    I reckon the K stands for krud, it's such a rotten cereal.

    I like the one with purple berries.
    It's the only cereal I eat.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 848 ✭✭✭Backtoblack

    Special K is Krucial for your continued existance as a valuable special member of the cereal society.

    It stand for the special breed of kape worms who's eggs are in the ceral,
    they hatch in the lower intestine and live there for a month eating food that the person has swallowed and then die and pass out of the body.

    Regualry esting specail k tops up these paracites and that is how it is possible to loose weight by eating the ceral.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,246 ✭✭✭✭Dyr

    When I was younger I used to think that 'slimfast' used to work on that principle.

    Yes, you were 'special' alright.

    Is it me or did Special K change dramatically in the early 90's?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,716 ✭✭✭✭Earthhorse


    It's actually just called Special. The K is silent.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,794 ✭✭✭JC 2K3


    What do they do with all the Regular K?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,909 ✭✭✭✭Wertz

    Nah, they changed it alright...it used to look like a cross between rice krispies and cornflakes and tasted a bit like rice krispies....then they changed it to some sort of flake as far as I can tell as opposed to a "puffed" cereal.
