It's all the nasty fumes from the cars and the dirt from the street.  You should go spend time in a smaller town or village where your snot will turn clear as it should be  ;D


I see neither Nibbles or Mr. anywhere in your name, therefore I have to ignore your answer as irrelevant, sorry. ;)

Bless you, Peedal. Mr. Nibbles is a fragile flower, and without attention he is likely to shrivel and die.  

But I don't want to get into sooty particulates and mucous membranes. Not every question has an answer, and perhaps that's the greatest lesson of all.  For this thread, at least.


Extremely insightful.....as always

A question like this calls for at best a universal answer that changes the very spirit of your existence, and at worst a glib comment that hurts your teeth. (Mr. Nibbles mostly blames Douglas Adams for that.)

I have neither variety of answer to hand. So I must, on this occasion, open up the forum.

I was taught that the egg came first, since dinosaurs had eggs. I can't recall who it was who taught me this so I'm not sure whether to put the answer down as "authority", "conjecture", "suggestion" or "belief".  I shall be most interested to read Mr Nibble's answer.

Graham is correct, well played.

Short answer: the chicken had to come out of an egg, but that egg didn't come out of a chicken.

Unnecessarily long answer:

1. Assuming (for one brief, glorious moment) that we agree on evolution, we accept that that all living things evolve through changes in their DNA.

2. So one day a male not-a-chicken meets a female not-a-chicken; they chat (not online, amazingly!), dance, fall in love, hit a rough patch while they rile each other about how crap the other one's native land is, and then just say to hell with it and toss a coin to decide where they're going to live, go through an expensive and tedious visa application process. And then the sweet love-making begins.  

3. So DNA (cue Jurassic Park segment) from the male not-a-chicken and the female not-a-chicken combine and form the first chicken zygote. That one zygote divided to produce the first true chicken.

4. And it was finger-lickin' good.

It's long overdue that the next question for Mr. Nibbles is put.  So, my question to you is the age old question.

Do men really smell worse than women do?  And how did you come to your conclusion?

Reminds me of the "my dog's got no nose" joke.  [smiley=wideeyed.gif]

I don't know. I've had a think about it, and I just don't know. For me, perfume in an office environment is a bad smell, so in that regard, women smell worse than men. But I also remember the smell of my teenage nephew when he came to visit and didn't shower for five days - a stink no woman would be capable of.

I haven't come to any conclusions, then, on this issue. My wife smells great, of course. And all female UK-Yankee members that I've met have smelled fine. (Although I should make it clear that I haven't been inappropriately sniffing anyone's wife).

This is true - all sniffing has been highly appropriate!   ;)

Ah ha, in that case shall we render this to our peers?  - Although we know you yourself Mr. Nibbles have none ;) - And see what they think on the subject?

Well you can't blame us for thinking it, the way your nose twiches all the time ;)
