Grandma's 5 Questions for 8/5/20

[pdub]

"At the very least having someone cut your steak and feed it to you with a fork is the same as having someone else put deodorant on for you."

Agree ( and very strongly ) to disagree.
And is backed by gutter's wording here:
"Can NOT use or be in an automobile/bus/van/suv/truck/motorcycle"

Described as a knife.

I'm not buying that one.
I'm buying the one that says hatchet in the description.

He didn't make that qualification for deodorant.

I'd say using deodorant = applying it to your body.

You could have someone else apply it.

If wearing it = using it, than reaping the benefits of having someone else feed you or prepare your meal counts as using a fork knife or spoon.

[pdub]

And i'd say using deodorant was having it on you, on your body, functioning.
And using a fork, spoon or knife, is, you know, actually physically using it, with your hands.

[PhDhawk]

I'm buying the one that says hatchet in the description.

The definition of a knife - an instrument composed of a blade fixed into a handle, used for cutting or as a weapon.

That certainly describes a cleaver, or for that matter a hatchet or an axe.

86 tacos then, pizza it is. I'll fold it like a taco.
Hand torn dough
Hand shredded cheese
Hand crushed tomatoes

Every day for the rest of the year?

I could probably get a 5 dollar footlong

[pdub]

Don't mind me, i'm just using my new cleaver to cut this steak.
Not ideal but better than smelling.

I'd rather not wear deodorant than have someone else cut all my food for me to eat. Or cut anything anytime I needed a knife.

If you've ever not worn deodorant for a day, you'd know it's no big deal.

Do you smell that bad without deodorant?

Because I don't.

[pdub]

I'd say I smell like an average man.
So yes, the average man can smell.

[PhDhawk]

Do we really need phones and internet though?

More than deodorant.

[pdub]

I've got a spork.
I've got a meat cleaver.
A pizza slicer.
Chopsticks.

I'll make do.

If I shower daily, no one else would smell me under normal interactions, not if I've showered. Maybe if we cuddled. Normally with sexual partners they're either attracted to, or at the very least not offended by the partners BO. So, the only person I'd cuddle with is my wife who isn't turned off by my smell.

[PhDhawk]

A pizza slicer.
Chopsticks.

No. Sporks and cleavers break the rule.

I'll throw a little baby powder in my pits and wear some aftershave.

[TDub]

When its 101 and youre framing....we probably dont smell too good. Id say i dont smell as bad as some guys so Id probably be fine.

[pdub]

Until gutter comes out and says sporks and cleavers break the rule, i'm going to assume he meant what we generally think of as a spoon, fork and knife.

That to me, would not include a ladle, or a cleaver, otherwise I would call it a spoon or knife in a normal conversation.

If his definitions are so PhD-level-stretched then I might go with deodorant.
But then i'd argue you couldn't use soap or shampoo - only water for your showers.

[pdub]

Also generally people don't know how bad they smell, they've adjusted to it.
I've had some really stinky coworkers who could really have used deodorant - and i'm sure they just didn't know they smelled so bad.

[PhDhawk]

Even under the narrowest of definitions for spoon fork and knife, that's a ridiculously awful decision.

[pdub]

You would rather others suffer than you, yourself, suffer.
My life will be inconvenienced with my choice.
Others lives will be inconvenienced with yours ( "Also generally people don't know how bad they smell, they've adjusted to it" ).
