Mystery gift
Merry Christmas everybody! How did your Christmas Eve go? Got to open a lot of gifts? Me, every year, I wait until Christmas Eve to open all my gifts just to pretend that I get a lot of them. This year, I received something peculiar from our office "exchange gift" activity. Here, let me show you....

What are these things? What are they for? I can't decide if they're gardening implements or kitchen tools. Here's what the back of the box says:
Add pizzazz and charm to your celebrations with this stunning look. The Valencia collections combines an embossed scrolling motif with an antique finish to create a uniquely yet sophisticated style that will be enjoyed by many for all types of occasions. Well crafted of fine materials and sculptured with care, this beautiful collection will serve a multitude of possibilities and bring pleasure for years to come.
"Enjoyed by many for all types of occasions..." "multitude of possibilities..." "pizzazz (yes, they misspelled the word) and charm..." "uniquely yet sophisticated style." If only they included some instructions on how to use the items, I'd be happy. But no, all I got was a bunch of meaningless big words. I bet somewhere in this box I get a thesaurus.
I was thinking, this must be made in China, right? Let's see. It's distributed by Home Essentials and Beyond (probably as part of their "beyond" category) from New York, NY (the keyword is "distributed"). And here we hit the jackpot... "Made in PRC"! In case you don't know, PRC is the People's Republic of China. And since these things were made in China, "well crafted" must mean "high levels of lead," in which case they're probably not ideal for kitchen use.
What do you folks think? Shall I use them to slice earthworms? Or to scoop rice?


Hmm
Maybe they're ancient Chinese torture tools? Christmas fun for the whole family!
The first thing that came into my mind
was tools to scrape plaster off after you plastered something (duh) to make the surface smooth and flat. Then I saw the word pizzazz...hmm pizza. Hungry.
Hmm, Chinese pizza
You just reminded me of the Peking duck pizza I had a long time ago... I don't remember where :-(
haha!
I received one of 'em PRC-made gifts too. I don't know if it's a hook or something you put on your hair. Its all a mystery! Maybe you should use those things on your hair?
Don't put it anywhere near your rice! Haha. Good luck!
A hook?
It's Captain Hook's hook!
I don't care what it is
Even if they are meant for torturing lazy people like the first commenter.
Anyway, merry Christmas to the entire Chicken Mafia!

Yes!
Torture the first commenter! Hey, wait....
LOL
"Add pizzazz and charm to your celebrations with this stunning look."
huh, what? is it something you're supposed to wear? what a funny.
Heh
If you wear the one on the left, you might end up with free body piercings.
I think they are...
wine bottle openers or can openers...you know the ones people don't really use just put on display to be passed on to generations and generations. :P
Merry Christmas!
They're made in China,
so I don't think they'll even last half a generation :-P
u know
i think this manga anime is melting the brain of some otherwise sane ppl.
i was browsing on youtube and i see a fair bit of cosplay (costume play) of a lot of anime. i mean sure some of the stories of these animes are pretty good like claymore, naruto, yuyu hakusho or saint seiya. but i mean dress up as one of those character in the story? i mean com'on... i mean white ppl and the japanese are just taking it to the nxt level.
and guess wat there's a big ass gundam in it too! a fucking gundam... who the hell has got time to build some shite like dat? actually its a little bit cool but you'll look like a knob tryin to move around the city block with one of them things wraped around, is all i'm saying.
Wow,
that was random. Had too much to drink at a party huh :-P
FYI
Pizazz is actually spelled p-i-z-a-z-z and not p-i-z-z-a-z-z, it's the PRC who misspelled it.
Bzzzzzzzzzt
Wrong.
The correct spelling is pizzazz. The spelling with only three z's is only a variant.

My new blog (even I don't know why I need it)
Yay!
A spelling war... fun!
Blame Mozilla
:p
Hmmm...
wine bottle openers or can openers?? the middle tool, maybe. but the other two? hmm... i guess ones to scrape the label and the other one's to make body piercings if you get too bored scraping and wine-bottle opening.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Unintentional body piercings
are the best kind :-D
scrape 'em
it will be used to scrape some itchy ass.
Just don't use it to
scratch itchy balls. You could do some permanent damage there.
hahaha
that would be a total mess. :)
Those are cheese cutters if
Those are cheese cutters if i'm not mistaken. :)
Heh, cheese cutters
I can cut the cheese without tools, thank you very much :-D
