A snippet from a recent MSN conversation with
nani1986 :
robot says:
OH SCORE i have carrots.
nani says:
Bugs will be pleased.
robot says:
I can make carrot soup.
nani says:
ohhh nice.
i like soup.
can't have it in the summer. i value my life.
robot says:
plus i get to break out the immersion blender!
nani says:
oh, that sounds exciting. is it like a superblender?
robot says:
It's a hand-held blender.
It's a mini-blender on a stick and you put it into a bowl of whatever to mix it.
nani says:
Ohhhh!
robot says:
it's very satisfying.
and loud.
It's kind of like riding a motorcycle only no one needs to wear a helmet.
(although protective eyewear is a plus.)
nani says:
and i assume you don't straddle it, either.
robot says:
Well, not unless I want to undergo some serious life changes.
ETA: The sequel to this:
robot says:
also I found some bacon
this soup just got sexier!
nani says:
you enjoy your soup and don't get drunk and ride the blender.
