Which Utensil Would you vote off the island?
They say that necessity is the mother of invention. I would like to be the father of random deduction then. I would like to turn that saying around and randomly remove something from our everyday life. Ladies and Gentleman, I would like to open up a massive debate here:
Which eating utensil would you remove?
Your options are:
Seriously. I want you to take your time with this before you just vote one of these utensils out. Which one could you survive without?
For someone like me who loves his food, this is not just an every day decision. No, no, no. This is a decision between having food in your belly singing praises to the food Gods or withering on a sidewalk as you wallow in squllar towards starvation.
Who gets your vote out?
P.S Yes this is how I am entertaining myself during lunch today. This cold has clearly made my brain work in odd ways.
- Captain AwesomeQuotes that Motivate You
I did a bit of an interesting experiment with a couple of my close mates a while ago. I asked them for some quotes that were close to them and provided them with motivation and that little bit extra when they need it in life. The results were really, really interesting so I wanted to extend this further and get some more opinions.
Feel free to leave your quotes below in the comments or to get hold of me privately if you don’t want them shared.
It doesn’t have to be a quote. It could be a song, a quote, a person, an image, a situation etc.
I am interested in seeing all the different ways that people motivate themselves to get something done or achieve something that they want. What provides YOU with inspiration?
