We can be overwhelmed or underwhelmed by things... Is it possible for something to merely whelm us? | ||

Your thought did. But underwhelmingly so.  | ||

How does a mogwai wash itself? It must do or it would be the stinkiest thing you'd ever think of buying as a present for your girlfriend... | ||

"How does a mogwai wash itself?" Dry shampoo? | ||

I googled "mogwai" and all that came up is some rock band. Clearly, I don't get this.... | ||

Have you ever seen the film Gremlins and its sequel, Craig? The mogwai is the cute cuddly little thing before it turns into a naughty gremlin. But you must never, ever get a mogwai wet, or feed it after midnight ...  | ||

Ah.............................................................................. ........... got it. Um. Cat's wash themselves by licking themselves. Right? So.... "Oh waiter! This joke isn't very good...." | ||

So, lick yourself and you get wet... | ||

I really don't want that visual image in my head of Craig licking himself, Weber! | ||

It wasn't intended in quite that way... I was merely pointing out to our befuddled friend that little Gizmo couldn't have licked himself to get clean or he'd have burst out in fresh Mogwai. | ||

That's a sentence I didn't think I'd ever have any reason to type. | ||

They irradiate themselves in the microwave. And are perfectly aware of the dangers of overdoing it. | ||

Surely a whelming experience is one that does exactly what it says on the tin? | ||
| Weber (Weber_gregston) Username: Weber_gregston Registered: 03-2008 Posted From: 194.66.23.11 |
But if it said on the tin that it would be overwhelming that would make a whelming experience overwhelming but a whelming experience can't be overwhelming because that wouldn't be whelming and would make the overwhelming experience underwhelming... | ||

That's bloody advertisements for you, Weber. Always overselling the fecking product!  |
