Non-stick pans conundrum researched

[Proper Bo]

Those of you who've bothered to read my inane babble will know what I mean already, the rest of you, tough, I'm not explaining.

Anyhoo, I decided to do some research into my non-stick pans not really being non stick due to them having stickers stuck on them theory. My scientific quest took me to the local tescos where I found the cookery devices in question situated in the aisle beside the dvd's. Upon seeing a spotty young lady working nightshift shelf-stacking (too ugly to put on the daytime, face like a clumsy bee-keeper, but i's straying from the point), I enquired as to how said pans could possibly be non-stick what with them having stickers on them.

I was met with a blank stare and the young lady promptly dissappeared. Next thing I know, I'm under cunning survailance from two crafty security guards; one hiding behind the budget £8 toasters at the end of the aisle, the other, casually pretending to be looking at the pans right beside me.

Needless to say, I moved off in a suspicious manner and led them on a wonderful game of cat and mouse through the babywear section. Ducking and diving behind rails and changing direction so to throw them off. I left after purchasing an egg and cress sandwich (74p) and watched as the two security enforcement fellows stood at the doorway observing me leave in my associate's car.

In conclusion, despite the cheap price of toasters in Tesco, I need to start going to Asda.

I'm a big fan of non-stick pants.

Actually, Bo, if there is actually a question in there I divine that it is as follows:

Why do stickers/labels stick to non-stick pans?

Answer:

Since you (I'm taking a terrific chance here; I hope you appreciate the fact) don't eat stickers or labels (well, you don't, do you?), you can surmise that the "non-stick" attribute applies, but is not necessarily limited, to foodstuffs.

I'm sure there are several things that will stick to a non-stick pan, and more things than food that will not.

I'm sure an intrepid such as yourself can conduct informal testing in the privacy of your own kitchen (bedroom, what-have-you) to prove this? :)

[Proper Bo]

Your hypothesis has been duely noted. From my research I've just performed this very moment, I have concluded that the pan can never truely be non-stick if anything can be stuck unto it, whether it be consumable to man or beast or not. They are just sheer frivolous claims made by "the man" to keep us happy in our throwaway culture. I'm sure it's the terrorists fault too, and internet-paedo-asylum seekers wearing hoodies.

The intellectual rigor of your work is also duly-noted.

I'll mention your work to the Nobel people when next I am in Oslo.

[Proper Bo]

No need my man, they have already been on the tele-communicay, they're granting me funding for further research. The grant consists of a free upgrade from a medium coffee to large (milk is extra) in the local Asda cafe (weekends only) and 30 pence off my next purchase of fairy liquid (500ml or larger) redeemable in any Morrison's store nationwide.

I see.

Well-versed in the routine, eh?

I could get you into the Knights of Malta if your research doesn't pan out-fancy sitting 'round with a silk sash in a comfy leather chair sipping cheap lambrusco with a bunch of ex-mafiosos? :P

[Proper Bo]

These Knights you speak of.....do they have any contacts within in the psuedo-non-stick pan manufacturing world?

interesting. self is a reflection of avatar, not the other way round :blink:

que?He means that if he used a variation of JP's avatar, he'd prolly start talking pish. Hrm, prolly a bad example. If I started using JP's avatar, I might start talking pish too.

are you deformed :lol: That story rocked :01:

I might start doing customisation requests for 'em, name your team, and a custom avatar shall be yours

Didn't that happen to DanB once? I wasn't a member at the time but heard talk, like.

[Proper Bo]

hehe, yes it would be rather comical, the old chap would spill his apple. (not a euphamisim)

[Blythorama]

Won't somebody please make me a custom avatar wot does suit me. I've tried many on and none quite fit. Will reward handsomely...

[Proper Bo]

well I would but I have no idea who you are, so I doubt my abilities to make one to suit you

[Blythorama]

Medium to large. Fairly new, not leftover from last christmas or anything, no bitemarks, although the others in the office have been coveting them all week.

Or, a paperclip chain, made lovingly over many months.

[Barbarossa]

Go on then, I'll have the pennies ;)

Why... does Bo have a sticky pan-handle? :huh:

[Blythorama]

Confused. Why are Mankers genitals in my PM box?

Guess my apostrophy madness prooves we are not the same person. Unless of course we are, and trying to put people off the scent, in which case why would I be telling people thats what I am doing, unless I'm double bluffing. :shifty:

Anyway. I've got girls bits. Has Manker got girls bits?

And I'm too shy to post a picture of the Busyman Pwned badge being worn by me.

If anyone wants one though, the offer is there.

Regarding your offer, can you give me one, please.

[Blythorama]

Girly bits ain't all that great you know. Being a girl is a messy business.


Yup you can have one! I'll make some on friday. :)

[Blythorama]

And Bo, I'm make some non-stick stickers just for you.

[Proper Bo]

don't get me started on non-stick stickers

Looking forward to Friday :naughty:

Was he not standing close enough. :shifty:

The labels are magnetic and the industry keeps this quiet in order to keep people talking about their pans :shifty:

even so, they're still sticking to the pan, no?

What about static caravans, Bo.

How do they get them to the caravan site in the first place :dry:

[Gripper]

Could they be static stickers,they aren't actually adhering to the nonstick surface,but are caught in the electromagnetic flux that is ionising an electron above the surface

they aren't intended to move they just stick to peoples jumpers then fall off in bridlington

[j2k4]

These Knights you speak of.....do they have any contacts within in the psuedo-non-stick pan manufacturing world?

Ahem.

So sorry to move back to...never mind that, then-

The only time I actually partied with the Knights was during a short sojourn to the Vatican, when I was lured outside the perimeter by the promise of a virgin maiden (not by, but of); the offer was made by a eunuch in the service of the Grandee's wife.

Alas, it was a mis-direction; no bacchanal with a horny young female, but lacking malicious intent, either.

The gentlemen bade me intercede on their behalf with the See, and it pained me to inform them I was powerless to help.

They accepted my demurral with regretful resignation, and we salvaged the evening with a few cases of fair grape.

The opportunity to assay their cookery never presented.

Sorry.

One scientific quest at a time boy, although they could possibly be built on the site thus removing any need for transporting and enabling to truely be static.

Both need to be tested in the scientific name of this thread.

[Proper Bo]

The caravans themselves aren't moving, tis the truck they're loaded onto. Maybe they have some time bending effect and the whole universe moves around the caravan, allowing it to remain forever static.

But if the static caravan on the lorry isn't moving, then all the other static caravans in the world must be moving... go figure... :frusty:

Hence... not static. :01:

No, maybe they bend light giving the impression of movement but secretly never move?

Blyth knows that bollocks are static. She's sure she got an electric shock from one once.

maybe blythorama is just a name, nobody would ADMIT to living in blyth, hence me being excused for assuming so.

but if he/she does, can I get some heroin please?

[Barbarossa]

Anyway, enough of that.

Now we've dealt with non-stick pans and static caravans, I'd like to talk about occasional tables.


That's all very well, but what the hell are they on the occasions when they are not tables? :huh:

[Blythorama]

Blyth doesn't live in Blyth. Blyths hair is more northerly than Blyth is.

I don't fancy intercepting delivery of Mankers toffee crisp so I'll trade Bo some sugar mice, candy necklaces or some of those weird flying sherbert saucers for it.

[Proper Bo]

Also, if he/she's from blyth, how could he/she intercept the post? blyth's a couple miles past here

edit: well where does blyth live?

edit: well where does blyth live?He/she - it's a she, actually - isn't a static caravan. Dick 'ed.

[Blythorama]

Blyth is Blyths name. Feel sorry for Blyth. Her parents hated her. She lives in a mobile static caravan.

Occaisionally she has a table.

[Proper Bo]

see? proper bo was right, nobody would admit to being from blyth

edit: more to the point, they dont have the internet there yet

[Blythorama]

Not only is non-stick non-non-stick, its deadly too.
