fastbob Posted February 12, 2019 Posted February 12, 2019 you will be calling them bag ties next I would tie my bags with Twizzle Sticks . When I was a lot younger and a lot less wiser a Twizzle stick was slang for a Bong pipe (allegedly), dunno how you’d tie a bag with one, smoke a bag yes, but tie a bag up??Not quite , a twizzle stick was a Rizla smeared with hash oil and then screwed up into a thin stick which was then incorporated into a joint . ( Apparently) Quote

( Apparently) A twizzle stick is a thing you stir your cocktail with isn’t it?! That's a swizzle stick. In the Caribbean it was originally a stick from a particular tree which had little sticky side branches so you could spin it in the drink to mix it.'a swizzle stick is a small stick used to stir drinks. The original swizzle sticks were created in the 18th century at a rum plantation in the West Indies. They were used to stir up Bermudian cocktails called Rum Swizzles and were made from the branch of the Quararibea turbinata (also known as the "Swizzle stick tree"). In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, stir sticks made of glass were created to shake out the bubbles from champagne, whose carbonation caused indigestion for some drinkers' Quote

No , a cocktail stick would be presented in a cocktail with an olive or a cherry on it and would be used to stir the drink . Sicking lumps of cheese and pineapple on them is an alternative use practiced by those lacking the sophistication to indulge in cocktails. Quote

I don’t like cocktail stick with cherries on, they are difficult to dump down on the table cos they’re wet n sticky but they taste nasty and never add to the drink. No , a cocktail stick would be presented in a cocktail with an olive or a cherry on it and would be used to stir the drink . Sicking lumps of cheese and pineapple on them is an alternative use practiced by those lacking the sophistication to indulge in cocktails. What if you’re using them to eat olives, sun dried tomatoes and feta cheese? I hadn’t had the culinary delight of cheese and pineapple since it died a death donkeys ago so in the interests of educating my boys on food history (the only type of history they have any interest in) a few weeks I did some cheese n pineapple on sticks. It was horrible. Cold cheese and pineapple on a stick is an abomination Quote

Lol I did serve them from a hedgehog! Not the foil covered sort though but a total waste of money from Lakeland that triggered the forgotten horror of cheese pineapple sticks Quote

Guest Posted February 12, 2019 Posted February 12, 2019 I wonder how the broken fairings getting on Should imagine the guy lost the will to live and rode the bike off a cliff on to a seabiscuit, only to get a zip cable caught round his neck causing his head to swell up, whereupon a passing Anglo-American linguist thought he was a monkey and stuck cocktail sticks in his eyes.

Bender Posted February 12, 2019 Posted February 12, 2019 Who sticks cocktail sticks in a monkeys eye, do you live in Middlesbrough Ohhh sorry they just hang them. Quote
