    In the intersts of science

    I am doing fundamental research into the human condition, and would like to prove or disprove my theory. The theory is that people who squeeze the toothpaste from the middle of the tube also dig a crater in the butter/margarine. And that end squeezers keep the butter flat.

    I think it is impartant that everyone fill out the poll so as to answer this vital question. This is science afterall.

    There is no option for squeezing from the middle and leaving the butter flat. Cause that is what i would tick.

    And do you put both socks on before your shoes or go one sock one shoe, second sock second shoe?

    I Squeeze from the Middle AND Dig a Crater and proud of it

    Actually I use semisoft or Country Blend 50/50 butter which comes in those rectangle 500g containers so its pretty hard to keep it flat.

    Its been years since I bought butter in the packet but I think I use to keep it pretty flat.

    If its any help I also like my peanut butter smooth (death to all crunchy eaters!!) and fold my toilet paper unlike the barbaric scrunchers out there.

    That one's pretty obvious.

    Both socks, then pants, then riding pants, then boots.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    The middle option was supposed to allow that - Middle squeezers who keep the butter/margarine/country soft blend flat, OR end squeezers who dig holes.

    So far, it looks like my theory holds water. Yay.

    Me too. Didn't take long to figure out that getting socks on is much easier outside of armoured pants. However, I'm usually pants, then socks, then riding pants, then boots, because my pants are usually close at hand in the morning, but I have to go hunting for a clean pair of socks...

    The toothpaste thing was only a problem in the days of aluminium tubes - if ya squeezed it in the middle you couldn't get the stuff at the closed end out...then ya Mum would give ya a clip on the ear ole.Doesn't matter with plastic tubes,even I can get it all out.And yer lucky the butter doesn't come in paper anymore.

    Oh...I don't know this stuff personaly like y'know,some old fart was telling me about it once eh.

    I think you'll find they are still aluminium but with a plastic cover over the top. If you don't believe me, try burning one.

    my doctor told me I'm not allowed to have knives in the house so I make a small scallop with a plastic teaspoon. I'm not allowed toothpaste either after my recent unsuccessful suicide attempt. 8-(
