5. Good point!
My wife keeps a commendably clean house, but four Avatars of Entropy (two boys and two cats) make for a lot of chaos.

:hi: I saw an episode of Mythbusters where they tested the 5-second rule, and determined that length of time on the floor has nothing to do with how many germs, dirt particles, etc. gets picked up. x(

Edited to add: I totally still use it, though. :P

9. I have 2 cats...
and no sense of shame or hygiene. One of the three of us would take care of it in short order.

10. Create a new religion based on worshipping this pile of cream.
Write hymns for it using melodies from Pink Floyd songs.
Wear robes festooned with pop tarts to celebrate the cream pile holidays.
Go out and find seven disciples and train them in the Way of the Oreo Cream.
And get me a Suzy-Q while you're out.

Thank you for the cue in. And yes, I have heard from many many that the Holy Grail is a great movie. That might be the next movie night here (and since we have a winter storm coming, that might be rather soon)

35. Take out three or four more Double Suffed Oreos, scrap off the creme...
sandwich all the cremes together, including the rogue creme, and pop the mass into your mouth. Now the ratio of germs per creme has been drastically reduced, thus eliminating your dilemma. However, said advice is null and void if carpet fibers, or other nasties, are present. Enjoy!
