Do you know what you're eating?

    I was at an 18th last night and in the toilet one of the lads who was sitting at my table was also there. Went about our business. I washed my hands afterward, he didn't. This didn't bother me in the slightest.

    What did bother me was that on the tables there was bowls of peanuts. He didn't just nit-pick at them. The whole hand went in and was grabbing handfuls of them.

    Imagine theirs 11 or 12 other people eating those peanuts which now have the extra flavour of his unwashed hands.

    Then I looked further into it. There was a girl eating the peanuts who was dying with a cold, sneezing into her hand and then dipping her hands into the bowl of peanuts!

    I'll be thinking twice next time I see a bowl of peanuts up at the bar or at a party!

    I like to suck the salt off and then put them back in the bowl.

    Well isn't there supposed to be something like 20 different types of urine in a bowl of peanuts?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,060 ✭✭✭✭biko


    That's why you shouldn't eat peanuts in bars*


    *bags of crisps ftw

    Aslong as they were my salty nuts, I wouldn't care!

    This is one of the life lessons my dad taught me when I was about 6. I've always viewed a bowl of nuts in a bar as more of a decoration than a snack.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,593 ✭✭✭Sea Sharp


    Did you use the same door-handle that he did when you left the toilet?

    ATM machines, things you come into contact with on public transport etc..

    Enjoy that thought :)

    Yes but I can deal with that sorta stuff because I always wash my hands before eating food anyway. My mother has that habit well beaten in to me. :cool:









    /the shades hide the shiner from last week when I said no to washing my handies before din dins.

    The worst is those salad bars in Supermarkets.
    Crappy excuses for sneeze-guards mean the food is riddled with germs by the time you put it in a tub and attempt to take it home!
    *shudder*

    Thank god I don't eat from them. Wait. What about deli staff sneezing over the food behind the counter :eek:

    You sound like Reuben Feffer. Just go for it. Piss is good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,593 ✭✭✭Sea Sharp


    Ah well if it doesn't kill ya it makes you stronger.
    If you don't come into contact with germs your immune system won't develop and that could be a disadvantage.

    (Anyone who knows what they're talking about want to back me up or put me in my place on that point?)

    True. My science teacher always used that one.

    "If I had a mars bar, and dropped it on the floor and then ate it what would you all say?"

    "R.I.P sir I spilled Fluoroantimonic acid there about an hour ago" :D

    Steak and BJ Day was invented by Tom Birdsey, may he live forever, and may the gods eternally bless his fate. Men everywhere should build shrines and worship this man, who has been so kind as to bless us with a day devoted entirely to devouring massive hunks of cowflesh and having one's member gobbled. Truly, he is a saint among swine, and deserving of the highest accolades in the worlds beyond.

    Seriously though, Steak and BJ Day was invented as a response to Valentine's Day, a day in which men get the 'privilege' of showing their affection for their significant other by spending ludicrous amounts of time, money, and effort in showering them in gifts, dinners, shows, and various other things to show them just how special they are to us.

    Isn't it about time that there was a day just like that, but devoted to having the ladies show men just how much they appreciate them? Thanks to Steak and BJ Day, this dream has finally come true.

    And look how easy it is! Since we're really only one of two things, the formula for showing us that appreciation is really very simple.

    :D
