Bacon Placemats

Bacon Placemats
Instructlobians like bacon. Bacon Soap, Bacon Image Tiles, Bacon and some other stuff sandwiches etc.

The next logical step is, naturally, bacon textiles. So get ready for an all body lube job. After all, cholesterol is fat, and fat is slippery. Lets lube those (heart) valves :)

Aw, jeez. I accidentally got a bacon glove last winter. I ended up with a third degree burn covering my hand and forearm. Since I figured I'd be in the ER for a while, and I hurt myself while making breakfast, I brought the cooked bacon along, which reaaaalllly disturbed the ER staff.

Like one what, Punkguyta? How about trying for an insult that make grammatical sense, huh?
May 23, 2012. 1:02 PMbnutmeg says:
In all seriousness, what do you see wrong with the grammar in my May 29th post?

Also, it was most certainly not "for personal gain". What do I have to gain? A stranger insulted me. My original post is neither "dumb" nor made up, as Punkguyta suggests.

Did you start with "Irony..." to indicate the irony of you getting involved in this back-and-forth just to say you are above such things?

No one is that dumb, so stop trying to be like one.

-"any bacon will do, even blasphemous turkey bacon"

If turkey bacon is blasphemy, is a turducken the antichrist of bacon?

Not if it is a bacon wrapped turducken.

If you need something even worse for your health try putting some brown sugar on top of the bacon before you bake it. :) The sugar melts and carmelizes the bacon

Bacon is more of a seasoning, like Gravy and Hard liqour.
Feb 28, 2009. 11:19 PMRaNDoMLeiGH says:
hard liquor is a seasoning? Oh, I've been doing it all wrong. I thought hard liquor was the main course.
Aug 25, 2009. 8:53 PMSubvert says:
All of the above can actually be the main course.
Aug 26, 2009. 11:04 PMred-king says:

Sep 1, 2007. 2:54 PMJames (pseudo-geek) says:
now why are you people so paranoid? one sheet of bacon isn't going to kill you, eating 2 sheets a day for 15 years probably would, but COME ON! ......yes, I know what I'm talking about, my mom is going to college for natural health. oh, and theres JUST AS MUCH cholesterol in that pork chop you ate the other day, as about 10 sheets of bacon. fat is fat, whether its melted into oil or not.
Aug 26, 2009. 11:13 PMred-king says:
you are correct. however, bacon has a bit of a notorious reputation for being fatty, and thus being bad for you. it's quite common for people to think things like this.
Jun 23, 2007. 3:31 AMschnerby says:
For some odd reason I have never seen bacon that looks like this outside the deli when you specifically order 'streaky bacon'. Perhaps this is my mark as a foriegner...
Feb 28, 2008. 11:22 PMneckfire says:
Depending where you are from bacon has different definitions. American bacon comes from the under belly of the pig. If you want some "streaky bacon" go to a decent butcher and ask for American bacon- ask him to cut it thick from the slab. Then make some bacon bowls! (or mats, helmets, baskets, et al...) Happy baconing

I'm not happy. I just made one of these to use as a mouse-mat. I hoped that it would be low friction, and thus save my wrist from RSI. It was a disaster. First, as the mat isn't that smooth, so the ball doesn't always rotate. Next, the rollers inside the mouse got slippery, so that when the ball did turn, the rotation wasn't registered. Finally, a mouse nibbled the mat, and the oily mouse-wire overnight. "So what are you going to do?" I hear nobody ask. It's obvious - I'm off to buy an optical mouse.
Mar 21, 2008. 9:25 AMmonkeeeee001 says:
What!?
Mar 26, 2008. 4:14 PMthunk says:
What exactly is your question ? Re-reading it now several months after writing it, I realize that there is a spare "as" in sentence 3, and perhaps is was not totally clear, that the nibbling mouse was small, gray and alive. "Was" here, rather than "is", and he didn't die of choked arteries caused by eating my mouse-mat. If you have anymore questions, please be more specific. Thunk
