Sponges: A brief rant by the JDK
Permalink  

Sponges. What the hell is it with sodding sponges? Particularly in relation to (but not limited to) washing-up activities. Everyone I know seems to use these stupid objects for their washing up:



All they seem to do is absorb soap and glide almost frictionlessly (I decree that this IS a real word) over the plate, making the simplest of washing up chores a pain in the sodding @rse! And the fact that the euphamistically named 'scouring' side is microscopically thin means that any attempt to use it to shift food waste from plates is ultimately futile as it would rather disintegrate than clean off a bit of gravy.

My own washing up utensils of choice are a simple dishcloth and a scouring pad.

That is all.

Bah! Where did my post go? Thought I'd just mention that I'd bought some multi-coloured sponges yesterday. That was all.

Are different colours more suited to the task, or are they all as rubbish as each other?

I am reminded of a legendary Seinfeld episode ...
... I suppose that was a different kind of sponge.

My older brother was a sponge for years. A particularly absorbent one. He's better now. I'm having a go at it now. It's quite entertaining...

So Darren, have you ever considered that the problem may not lie with the sponges...

-gives Darren a look-

It is a grand time of year to have a birthday!
Used to work with a guy who was two days younger than me, also quite spooky. And I share my birthday with someone else who was on my degree course, my mate's old landlord & probably some famous people.

Possibly my look singed you eyebrows. Either dunk your head in water or ask someone to stamp on them & you'll be fine.

I'm pretty sure "the look" has never been captured on film or pixles

Hmmm, I'm not sure that it's a look that can be summoned without reason.

I can supply a reason. Ready your camera:

All girls are rubbish and slightly less intelligent than men.

To be honest, if the look it worth it's salt, no camera lens will be able to remain intact.

Now, I just have to work out how to get this boot print off my forehead.

That merely merits a slightly condescending look, with gently raised eyebrows.
'Tis true about the camera lens though.

How about this:

You are rubbisher and slighly less intelligent than the girls that are rubbish and slightly less intelligent than men. And Shadow only hangs arouns out of sympathy. Rich is being paid. And your parents don't love you. And, er... I arranged for the bus to be more sickening than normal this morning. And the annoying person in your office is in my employ and has specific instructions form me to be extra specially annoying today.

Mmmmmmmmmmmm, sprouts! Yum

At lunchtime I went out & bought a PG Tips Monkey, who is sat on my desk. You can't upset me now! (Not that you were doing a great job of it anyway.)


PS Shouldn't insults be short enough that the insultee doesn't fall asleep before they're finished?

Dammit. Your bum looks huge in that outfit.
