"Clingfilm - It's not for blokes!"

I reckon that clingfilm is actually devil spawn. It is impossible to tear off some clingfilm without one of the following happening:

1. Practically cutting your finger off on the stupid little serrated edge cutter thing.

2. The clingfilm getting all tangled up so you can't do sod all with it anyway.

3. It getting torn, so that when you unroll the clingfilm, it rips and the width of the clingfilm gets thinner and thinner because the rest of it still wrappred around the tube. You then have to spend half an hour with a bread knife sorting it out.

4. Running out. Why is it so difficult to tell how much is left on the roll? So when you DO finally manage to tear some off, it's not enough as the bloody roll runs out!

5. Your girlfriend wanders in and says "I can't belive you have trouble with this." And rips off a piece perfectly, which is just the right size and everything.

You may be asking yourself why I have become so intimate with clingfilm recently, and it is because I began to clingfilm my mates car up when his window was smashed, and he had to drive back from Leicester to Essex.

But then the car window bloke turned up, so I'm left with two rolls of something I hate.

Nice.

Sorry, its a saying I heard ages ago.

Under the 'affluence of incahol' IS 'under the influence of alcohol'.
It just comes out like the former rather than the latter, when you try and say it drunk.

Incahol?

Is that like some ancient Mayan methanol substitute?

Just remember not to wrap fatty foods with cling film, it will make you very sick.

Being under the affluence of Incahol is often as good a reason as you need.

Why would you do that?

If you boil it first though, it is possible to get it over a telephone box.

Tried and tested.

I have to admit, I was expecting this topic so be about something quite different. While at senior school, during 'those' lessons - and I'm sure you know what ones I mean, they made a big thing about what clingfilm should not be used as a substitute for.

Not too sure if you can use a condom for keeping your sandwiches fresh though....

I think I'm rather lucky I managed to buy microwavable cling film then, I thought all cling film works.

Same with eggs.

Very messy.

you can't use cling film in the mic either, unless you buy microwavable cling film.
