You also can't rap! *hee hee*
ANYONE can rap!
How the hell do you eat popcorn?
Oh my gosh, and what about hotdogs? And hamburgers? Do you not eat pickles and olives? Pizza? The mind, she is reeling...
Donuts? Grapes?
Ok, so do you walk around with a supply of tiny forks for spearing things?
Because I would really be amused to watch someone eat popcorn with a little tiny fork.
I can put my right foot behind my head. We could be bookends.
Dearest Lorraine. I must confess that I eat fruit with my fingers. Popcorn is with a spoon. Burgers, pizza, hot dogs and doughnuts with a knife and fork. Even the sight of grease on someone else's fingers sends shivers down my spine.
We must be bookends when we meet someday. It's a date. (I KNEW there was a reason I liked you)
Popcorn. With a spoon. As Mr. Bingley's snotty sister once said, "I am all astonishment".
Yes, popcorn with a spoon. How else does one eat it without getting grease on your fingers???I'll also admit to potato chips and fried chicken with latex gloves. I'll admit it! I love 'em both. Buth they both require protection.
And, yes, I'll admit it! I even eat hamburgers in private with latex gloves! I like tons of mustard and mayonnaise. But there's NO WAY it's gonna drip on my fingers. Oh! The humanity.
There! You got me!
I also carry silverware in my back-pack and keep an extra supply in my desk at work. You never know when you're going to encounter one of those "we-don't-supply-utensils-type-of-barbecue places. The fried Chicken / Catfish place next door to my workplace only supplies these tiny plastic forks. Uh-uhh! That just won't do!!
