[with thanks to fellow fish scarer, Dan].
Enter your local supermarket [US read grocery store] and creep down the fresh food aisle.
Sneak quietly, surreptitiously towards the back of the store and the deli areas.
You will have seen it now : your destination : the fish counter.
You're
almost there, don't blow it. Slide up to the fish counter and shout "Booo!" at the fish at the very top of your voice.
Stand back and observe their surprised countenances : the wide open eyes and the jaw slightly ajar. What fun!
[If the fish you approach already has the wide open eyes and gaping jaw, then you'll know a fellow half-baker lives nearby and has been fish scaring very recently].

this is very silly. and I have read a lot of very silly! |
|
| |
sp: surprise. -1. sorry. but I like to think some thought has gone into an hb idea. |
|
| |
how can a dead fish be scared? |
|
| |
[po] I've tried it. You should see their faces |
|
| |
you've shouted boo at a dead fish on a slab? |
|
| |
egbert - are you aware of your neighbours? |
|
| |
[reckon egbert does it too. someone must be. the fish look quite scared] |
|
| |
changed vote if you are scarring fishermen. |
|
| |
scarring? jeez, never. wouldn't wish to scar a fisherman |
|
| |
I've known some fisherman. You wouldn't live to tell the tale anyway. |
|
| |
frankly [po] the fish in Bristol are wusses anyway |
|
| |
there is one I am fond of :) |
|
| |
BOO! I scared you little bun into a
big
one. It got bigger thinking that I
would run away. I think it even
hissed at me. + |
|
| |
Please don't take this fishbone as an insult. It just fits so perfectly with the idea. (don't look, [sart], it could happen again) |
|
| |
don't fish eat croissants though? |
|
| |
arse. is that where I've been going wrong?! |
|
| |
[hazle] Simple test: Do your fish look scared with wide open eyes and their jaws slightly ajar, wedged around an uneaten pastry? If so then yes. |
|
| |
[sart] Aaah!! (runs and hides behind produce island) |
|
| |
[Worldngineer] is clearly a veteran fish scarer... |

All
sleeping
and
no
nookie
makes
jon
a
dull
boy. |
|
| |
?
Wake up jon boy, you're dreaming of nookie again and sleepwalking through this idea. |
|
| |
Hehe! That was the most psychotic thing I could think of, given that this seems to be a family feud. |
|
| |
Man. The line between silly and stupid just won't keep still. |
|
| |
Oh please, don't run away World.
Is my rebreather showing? |
|
| |
Would you expect anything
different from the
line between silly and stupid? |

A one eyed crippled fish in Iowa once told me,"Go to school and become somebody, you don't want to be like your brother. |
