a "VERY OLD ABSINTHE SPOON" with the mark of SERPIS on it!
Tres Ancienne Cuillere a Absinthe

Gee you learn something new everyday. And here I thought Serpis was a fairly new brand!

No, not for spoons. The absinthe spoon was actually invented by Dr. Serpis in the 18th century. It was an accidental invention. The holes occurred when he bit through a spoon after mistakenly drinking some aftershave. He decided to use the spoon for absinthe since he needed a digestive tonic after swallowing the vile concoction. Later, other vile concoctions would bear his name in honor of his great invention.

this is funnier

Show me some snail trails and I'll be more likely to believe it.

..and yes, that is more funny.

Now that made me laugh.

I guess Dr. Serpis was colorblind and thought he was using the green beetles to color his brew.

Well if you drink it outside, those flies with the iridescent green backs seem to come buzzing around pretty quick.

BTW, Peeps that dude in your avatar looks just like Ross from Friends (a show I never watch, ever, don't accuse me.)
I like your evil green eyed avatar better, the Ross thing just makes the theme song (which I've never heard except on the radio) run through my head.

Slake watches friends.

Good thing I don't.

Rachel makes me so wet.

It's ok, you're a sponge.

Thanks JBM, I knew you'd understand.

Maybe I'll get around to putting my head on him. Would that make you feel better, Sponge Bob?

Better than putting your head IN him.

I'm just sayin' .....

At least Dr. Serpis wasn't Czeckerland. Then he would use flaming beetles.

Stay hard core in the most blazing of heat!

YOU ARE NOT HARDCORE IF YOU WEAR SANDALS!

You could always wear them to a Ren-Faire

What if you wear them with socks?

you're wrong, jack.

you WOULD be hardcore if the spikes were real and on the top of the sandal.....

Good POINT.
(get it? Point?)
