What's with the one napkin?!

Friday, April 10, 2009 by Brysgirl | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Why is it that every time I go thru a drive thru, regardless of what I order, they always give me just one napkin? I could order 2 happy meals and 2 value meals and they will put 1 napkin in the bag! Are they kidding me?  The thing is that every one does this especially McDonalds, Wendys and Dunkin Donuts. We go to Dunkin Donuts almost every Sunday morning on the way to church. This week my hubby got smart; he said,  "4 bagels w/ cream cheese, a coffee, and 2 orange juices, oh, and some extra napkins please." We received our order- 4 bagels with cream cheese, a coffee, 2 orange juices, and , you guessed it, 2 napkins!!!

Is there a shortage of trees in the USA? Is this stupidness only happening in the Midwest?

    I for one am an advocate of the one napkin epidemic.  One napkin is plenty for a family of 5. The food goes in ur mouth not all over ur face. If one napkin is not enough ur shirt sleeve should do the job. 

JOIN ME IN OUR ANTHEM;   " One napkin please, one napkin is enough for me, let this my anthem be"

If for any reason u are given more than one napkin. U should return it or throw it out the window.

REMEMBER our anthem, sing it and luv it.

I prefer to use my left sleeve, when that is used up, inside of pant leg down by the calf, good for a while

And for you, Bg...I say steal some napkins

That was a cute picture! Can't blame the cat; they should have given it enough napkins.

You unscrupulous principled one! You return napkins that don't belong to you, yet you litter the earth with refuse! You ought to be proudly ashamed of yourself!

You know what really annoys Me?  When you go into the toilet and find that the person before you has reeled off practically the entire roll and the toilet won't flush it, there's that much in the bowl... then you look up and find there's only one solitary piece left on the roll...

You know, that piece that's glued to the cardboard holder... and you spend an eternity delicately peeling it off because it's your only salvation from the huge undy skids that otherwise would appear on laundry day... and are hard to explain away to the missus.

Yup, and you have to get real inventive with that single solitary piece of toilet paper... because obviously it's not enough.  My trick is to fold it in half and in half again, then tear out the corner so that you have a whole piece with a hole in the centre when unfolded.  You then insert your finger in the hole, wipe bum and then draw the toilet paper slowly up the finger to remove mess before discarding appropriately.

Oh, and for those wondering what you do with the little triangular piece from the hole, you use that to clean under the fingernail.

What, you didn't appreciate the inventiveness of it?  

You just never know when the info could be your saviour.

Oh, and when the time comes, be thankul that toilet roll manufacturers are cost cutting. 

Yup, they're skimping on the glue... so it only takes half an eternity the peel that last piece off the roll.

Okay. It's scary that you have this down to a science...

This brings up a gross but funny story from my childhood:

 

I used to pick my nose.  I'll admit it.  What child, especially a boy didn't?  Anyway, I needed to get rid of this one that was especially large, so I flicked it.  Out of the corner of my eye, I saw my mothers head jerk...like on the Seinfeld episode titled The Magic Loogie (I think that's the episode but you Seinfeld fans know what one I'm talking about).  I looked over and there was my monster booger on her cheek.  I couldn't help laughing, and she couldn't help screaming.

Sounds like she needed a napkin...
