Posts: 3836 From: Albuquerque, NM Registered: Feb 2000 posted 08-21-2003 09:11 PM                        I don't get it. Why not just eat a real octopus?  |  IP: Logged Paul G. Thompson The Weenie Man Posts: 4718 From: Mount Vernon WA USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 08-21-2003 09:20 PM                     I think we will pass. Looks too complicated for our concession people comprehend. Besides, why should we spend 5 minutes to "pretty it up" and in two munches within 10 seconds it is history except for the "recycling" phase that occurs about 6 to 8 hours later. That time can be variable, especially if it is a rottin' weenie.  |  IP: Logged Randy Stankey Film God Posts: 6539 From: Erie, Pennsylvania Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-22-2003 10:23 AM                     EEww!! That's kinda' GROSS-looking! YUCK! Who'd want to eat that? The only reason I would get one of those is if I had a 5-year old kid who was a fussy eater and this gimmick would get him to want to eat. Y'Know, kids about that age are all into that gross-out stuff!  |  IP: Logged John Spooner Expert Film Handler Posts: 186 From: South Australia, Australia Registered: Jan 2003 posted 08-22-2003 01:53 PM                     That device which shreds hot dogs looks quite horrible. Trust our provider does not buy one. What do you think, Teeny Weeny?

We didn't make any sea critters though. High school boys will tend to "pervert" about anything they can get their hands on. We'd take a regular old hot dog weiner, put a slit in the end (not all the way through), then make a slit around the circumference about 1" from the end of it. We'd then deep fry it for about 20 seconds and PRESTO.. an anatomical wonder. Never served any that way... but boy was it tempting.  |  IP: Logged Gerard S. Cohen Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 975 From: Forest Hills, NY, USA Registered: Sep 2001 posted 08-22-2003 07:25 PM                     How about combining these octopus weiners with the whirley-twirley hot dog wonder machine that Paul showed us in another thread? [Maybe some Photo-Shopnik can illustrate this for us?] If the octopussies won't stay on the spiral springs right-side-up, they can be inverted, with four evenly spaced, with their heads in the coil springs. Then their twirling and rotating would set their arms a-twitching! We may not sell many, but who says the concessions ALL have to turn a profit? The hot-dog display may prove more entertaining than the films shown lately.  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 08-22-2003 07:40 PM                  quote: High school boys will tend to "pervert" about anything they can get their hands on.
