That kind of flower always makes me think of the teacup flowers on Willy Wonka (the original). The one he drinks out of and then just takes a bite out of…I sure do wish they were edible. MMM mmm…

I stared at it for a minute and the word "Jonquil" popped into my head. It's a Jonquil, indeed. If only they were edible.

Nils

The original Willy Wonka is a classic. I used to go aroud licking wallpaper that had fruit on it until about age 5.

shnozberry? Who's ever heard of a shonzberry?

Alexander Micek

The shnozberries taste like shnozberries!

Mykala

It's pronounced "shnoz-bury" (with a british-like accent) much like "wood-bury"… which is pronounced incorrectly by about 95% percent of the population anyway… grrrrrrr.

I used to eat paint chips, does that count?

Markoe

Only if they're lead.

Alexander Micek

Lead: we quit pencils and cans — time to make a comeback in paint!

Did you know the inside of a pop can has a plastic coating? I had a friend who worked in a pop can factory. He said without that coating, the pop would burn a hole through the can in 30 minutes due to its acidity. Ok, maybe a little bit longer, but it gives a good picture of what happens to your esophagus as that lovely liquid rolls down it…

Markoe

Yeah but it tastes so damn good. Its worth the long term damage.

Just drink booze instead, much more fun

Nils

Yeah, booze is fun, except when you've been hung over all Tuesday because the culture you are in likes to go out on Mondays and consume outrageous amounts of wine way too fast and for far too long. I hate this…

Dan McKeown

but you probably did not hate "this" last night

Nils

Damn, Dan. Touche, well said. Your wisdom knows no bounds.
