Fashion: Sleeve
Napkin sleeves   (+10)  [vote for, against]
"Wipe your mouth on your sleeve!"

To capitalise on the propensity of young children to wipe their mouths on their sleeves while eating, napking should be made in elasticated, tubular sections which can be slipped onto the arms before eating. Soon these will be fashionable in all the best restaurants and eating places and to wipe your mouth on a traditional napkin rather than your sleeve will be seen as a ghastly faux pas.

Wildcats do have black noses, or brown.

That's 'cos they're sun-tanned 'cos no-one got close enough to put on sun-block

See link. It seems that Sheryl Crow has been publicising this idea without crediting me. Come on then, own up - which one of you is Sheryl Crow?

I see it now! Kirk Douglas is Sheryl Crow.
