My favorite household cleaning item is my pail!
I wrote this on it just now, to show it my appreciation for it's incredible usefulness around the house today.

HOMER'S PAIL
IT'S THE PAIL BY WHICH
ALL OTHER PAILS
PALE IN COMPARISON.

I greatly appreciate it's help in my efforts to get laid this weekend with my newly cleaned house.
My pail is my pal

You don't need to have the extra "to" at the end. Would your pail be hurt if you were to remove the word? Would you use the water in the pail to clean the words you wrote about the pail from the pail?

This would be a cool pail. No more mopping!



This one has someone's favorite candies "inside" it! Can you guess how many?

Aww, hell. I was just playin' around. I needed an excuse to wax philosophical and talk about my favorite pail-like object, the klein bottle. I don't know much, but what I do know could fit in one of them klein bottles. If you want one, you can buy one from this place:

http://www.kleinbottle.com/

Also, they have one of the coolest things - Chinese Dancing Water Fountains (or Chinese Spouting Bowl). Man, I really want of those! You could even use it for a mop-pail if you wanted. It has two sides.



I have:
1. taken too many benadryl with pseudoephedrine
2. had too many glasses of green tea (Phoenix green pearl -yum!)
3. not eaten much today

the answer, I'm afraid, is 4. all of the above.

Uh, sorry for all that nonsense. I just had some pizza and beer, so reality has set in. Kinda.

My favorite household cleaning item is...bleach. It's also good for when you're just bored.

Bleach for the needles, 409 for the counter, Pledge for the tables, & Comet for the sink, Tidy-bowel for the toilet, Windex for the windows, Kleenex for my nose, Cascade for the dishes, Charmin for my bum,....

Bathroom mouse? Squirty cream..... without...the "squirty cream shape"? I am rapt with awe.

What the hell is Bathroom Mouse? What do you do with it? Why do I have this sickening feeling that I really don't want to know?

Meh. Can't a girl hide from her family (on AIM) without having to catch it from you? Sheesh! Check your email.

Maybe you should try ShakeyShake's bathroom mouse -sounds like it might fix up your old mouse just fine, or at least make it even gunkier.

No new e-mail whatsoever..well..of course there's the junk mail. "URGENT ATTENTION! My uncle died and I'm going to tranfer it to an American account but can't do it myself. I have to do it through someone else and you're just the person. You will get to keep 30 percent of the money" blablablabla SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU ANNOYING JUNK MAIL!!!!"

Okay, it finally came through..and you're still not on, hahaha

This is all making me think I should go clean my bathroom...

My favorite household cleaning item is, beyond a doubt, my husband.

I also like those Swiffer thingies (or the cheap-o generic version of them.) It bothers me that they're disposable, but I can finally dust w/out having a massive allergy attack.

I'm really surprised this topic is getting so many responses.
I only started it because I was all excited about the possiblity of my having intercourse with a actual real live woman.

Much to my chagrin that deal fell trough.

Damn you pail! Damn you to hell!

They are great - I use the floor cleaner Swiffer-dealie, sometimes.

Does it bother you or encourage you that they used Devo's "Whip It" in their latest commercial? I was flabbergasted for a split second, but then this evil grin crept across my face. I think I like that Mothersbaugh is infiltrating all the angles...

I went to that site you posted where you can buy Klein bottles. I've been trying my hardest to figure them out, but I just can't. I sorta understand them, its just that when I look at one for too long, I start to get a headache. Do these Klein bottles serve any actual purpose, or are they just here to irritate and confuse those of us who aren't that bright? If so, what could one do with a Klein bottle, besides store M&M's?

Hell, I think they are just for fun - to illustrate a mathematical point, kinda like having an M.C. Escher drawing, in 3-D. Maybe they're the equivalent of black lights for geeks.
Did you check out the Spouting Water Bowls? Man, those are even cooler. If you put a partially-filled bowl on a towel or on the grass, or other cushioning surface, and rub the sides/handles with slightly damp palms (hey now, I heard that!) , the wave frequencies that develop make the water form standing waves, in four parts (exactly where 4 fishes' mouths are located in the design inside the bowl) and a fountain effect is created. Supposedly some have been capable of producing 3-4 foot tall fountains. Just another toy to get physics students excited I guess. And I think it might also have incredible cleaning properties, along with some spiritual application or another.

Lots of neat puzzles and other cool toys there too -and no, I don't work for them. I found that site when I saw the spouting bowl in a movie called "Vertical Ray of the Sun" (beautiful movie, btw). It seems like there aren't many places where you can buy one of those things. I'm currently working up the nerve to ask our Chinese acupuncturist where we might be able to get one. The ones I've found so far are pretty expensive.

I'm checking out those spouting water bowls right now. Just like the Klein bottles, there doesn't seem to be much of a practical application, other than entertaing these so called physics students. It does seem pretty neat though. As for expensive, I guess $95 is a bit much for spouting water. I figure you can create the same effect for free in your own kitchen sink, just splashing your hands around for a while.

this is a great thread! i can't believe i missed it the first time.

my favorite household cleaning item are my yellow latex gloves.

and there is a direct correlation between the amount that one cleans and the amount of sex a man gets.
