Sing along:

N-E-S-T-L-E-S
What comes out your a-s-s?

Enlighten me Jim, what appropriately dark meaning likes behind this rhyme, forever hidden to a non-native speaker? You can't mean the Swiss food group Nestlé, can you?
We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

Yes, he does.

Back in our childhood days Nestlé ran commercials with this catchy jingle that went:

N-E-S-T-L-E-S,
Nestlés makes the very best.
Choooooc-let.

I had never heard EB2's version though.

Whenever the idea of anallingus comes up, I mentally fog up as the concept never has interested me.  And then I remember the Nestle song, and how the school yard version went.  There was a similar one for Branded, the Chuck Connors show, which I recall we had a German version up here.  Auf Deutsch it went like this:
Angeschwemmt. Angeschwemmt auf der Toilettenschüssel. Was tun, tun Sie, wenn Sie angeschwemmt werden, und Sie haven' t erhielt eine Rolle? Um Sie zu prüfen seien Sie ein Mann, den Sie es mit Ihrer Hand abwischen müssen, wenn Sie tapfer sind. Angeschwemmt.

If that is awkward, blame Babelfish.  It was very fun.

Danny O'Day and Farfel were dummies of ventriloquist Jimmy Nelson, whose show was sponsored by Nestlé. That's where the jingle originated.

You can see it right at the beginning and end of this.

Lay off. Jim gets uptight about these things which is not to say that such a physical reaction might not still win him new friends.  It's all a matter of perspective.  :)

Yes. As ruthless as the Andromeda Strain.

Oh well.  You can't argue about the taste.

Oddly enough if I won the lottery I would not be into hoarding a bunch of the same thing.  Maybe one very nice NR, then on to more exotic fare, like an EB-0F.

Then...

 Perhaps so Herr Moderator...........I haven't "converted" anybody tho......... ;)

Pretty doubtful that I could either, so you're all a very tolerate group  ;D

A lottery win would have to be big enough to buy Gibson and move it back to Kalamazoo.

I hardly ever buy lottery tickets, though. As Tony Bouza once said, your chances of winning the big jackpot are about the same whether or not you buy a ticket.

a brave attempt to bring us back on thread, Bro... ;D

I'd settle for a 2nd Gibbie bass... even a wreck needing a renovation, but nothing has shown up for a while here...

A brit won an extraordinary lottery here 2 friday's back but not sure if they've come forward yet - £113M

Lottery wise, I'd be very happy with enough to clear the bills and get us back on an even keel... :-\

off topic - there is an awful joke concerning chocolate that has the punchline of "If you like a lot of chocolate on your biscuit, join our club..." to the music of an old advert... not for delicate ears... :o
