collocations with curmudgeon..

[Avalon]

Well, users can be curmudgeonly behaved at times...that´s when threads get more interesting..like the one about moral damage...I liked to see MikeNewYork and Curmudgeon having such a friendly discussion..would you please put some more controversial topics, or will I have to post them myself..?

Have you got your wooden spoon poised?

[Avalon]

HEHEHE...I have my pasta wood roll..or what is it that you call this.?

[curmudgeon]

I've no idea what a pasta wood roll is, but I don't think I could eat it.

A wooden spoon is used for stirring

[Avalon]

I mean the thing you use to "roll out a dough/ pie dough" which is usually made by wood and has a roll tool shape...But yes, since I´ll spend some of my time here( while working on other stuff) I´d like to have a more interesting and opinionated thread..

[curmudgeon]

You mean a 'rolling pin'

[Avalon]

Maybe that´s what I mean....Anyway, cranky/curmudgeon...how about bit of a chat? do you have an msn? maybe we could talk a bit thru a webcam ..I also have skype..it COULD be fun.. or not...

[curmudgeon]

Yes, I don't have a webcam though. My boy has taken it to university in London

[Avalon]

Well...listening to a scotsperson would certainly be challenging...first time I heard one I thought it was a whole different language..I´ll PM you.. hope u have the interest to add me..

So there is going to be a duel, with rolling pins and wooden spoons at 50 paces? Who knew this forum could get so exciting? I see that Avalon referred to Curmudgeon as "Cranky" - new nickname, or Freudian slip?


You want controversy, here you go:

Carpet. It's Neither a car nor a pet; it is actually a floor covering. Discuss.
