"Pass me the Wounded Finger" would
become a familiar catch phrase if my new
ketchup sauce bottle top entered
widespread use.
It's a simple idea that involves taking off
the conventional bottle top and replacing it
with a replica finger, the tip of which flicks
back as if half-severed,
allowing the sauce
to pour out from the now revealed open
wound.
(?) I have the finger to cast.....

or a small squeezy nozzle recessed into a deep gash in the end which inevitably becomes clogged with ketchup: a real festering wound to squirt ketchup out of. Nice. |
|
|
It would have to come out in regular spurts of diminishing intensity to convey the impression of the desperate, dying heartbeats of the victim. The 'de luxe' ketchup bottle would add the sounds of screaming and approaching police/ambulance sirens [+] |

|
Do you have a similar design for a brown sauce bottle ? |
|
|
If so, we don't want to know. |
|
|
The Lorena Bobbit range could use another appendage. |
|
|
//Do you have a similar design for a brown sauce bottle// |

There may be a mayonnaise dispenser. |
|
|
...a cornflake dispenser which requires you to flake corns off a lifelike foot, etc. |
|
|
Nice, partic as ketchup, like blood, tends to form messy scabs which have to be picked away if a fast flow is desired. |

I've been wondering what to do with all that silicone mix I have left over...this thing could sell like hotcakes in Somalia. |
|
|
Sounds like a name for a pub. |
|
|
I can feel this design. Oh
boy can I feel it..... |
|
|
Ooops! C'mon, c'mon! lick the finger, ohhhmmm... |
|
|
son: Mommy, I overheard daddy talked that way too. Maybe... you both get so fat for too much chicken drumsticks for midnight snack... |

Ouch [Giblet] - but good one for Brown HP Sauce. |
|
|
[Giblet] Did that hurt much? What did you
do to mash it so? |
|

I was in a bucket at the end
of a 60 foot boom lift, and
while trying to maneuver away
from a wall, I went a bit
sideways, and my hand was on
the railing of the boom lift
basket. |

About 10,000lbs steel being
stopped by a brick wall with
my finger tip in between. |

If anyone ever heeds one thing
I say, let it be this: No
matter how comfortable you are
with your skill of operating
heavy equipment, _never_ stop
fearing it. |
|
|
That picture is old, my finger
has healed completely, but the
tip has a much longer nail due
to the cuticle being so far
back now, plus the fact it now
has a tip the size of my
pinky. |
|
|
Nerves run along the outside
if your index finger, and they
were not turfed completely. |
|
|
And yeah, the nail managed to
fall off after a few weeks. |
|
|
Recommend you remove the second paragraph of the description entirely. |
|
|
//Jam from...never mind.// See my comment there: "What shape the jar?" |
|
|
You've really got something there. |
|
|
Yes, he has. But doctors are working on a cure ..... |
|
|
sorry but this is horrible |

Awful, but harmless, I guess. [ ] |

For those who like a little more tomato on their spaghetti; The Severed Horse's Head, which also serves as a backup gravyboat. |

I would like eveyone to try a little thought experiment with me if you will all be so kind. |
|
|
Re-read the idea as posted and when you get to the bottom, superimpose the name [treon] over that of the author and see if your vote would have been the same. |
|
|
...and so I propose an annonymous view of the halfbakery that would not allow users to see the author of an idea until that user has either cast a vote, or said idea has been around long enough to no longer be in bold print. |
|
|
Don't get me wrong, I look forward to reading xenzag's ideas along with those of many other halfbakers. About personal idiosyncrasies in writing styles little can or should be done. Since finding the halfbakery I have tried to read each idea in it's entirety before looking at the name of the author, (not that I can always resist), and you would be surprised at how often you'll know who posted an idea before you get to the bottom if you do this for a while, but that is irrelevant to the point I'm trying to make. |
|
|
Is this site about the ideas or is it about the personalities? Of all the places on or off the web, I thought that this one would be the least likely to degenerate into a junior high school popularity contest. I still think that if a Broken Finger Ketchup Bottle Top had been posted by any number of other bakers it would have been fishboned to death. |
|
|
Maybe I'm just becoming crotchety and cynical. |
|
|
Hey! Alright who chucked that stone? |

//You expect we should be somehow more altruistic and less tribal because we're somehow enlightened? // |

Seems to me to be the age old "What aught to be vs. what is". Your point is taken and, in my view: correct [2 fries]. But the only way to make this ideology into reality is if everyone chose to be more objective. |
