lolcatdeluxe » neu2 years ago
It is an old technique for skimming out shell fragments. Unlike our disposable society today ancient people had MANY uses for merkins. Example, in a pinch they can be used as a pirate's eyepatch. Henry Morgan used an early Jamaican thatched merkin at the battle of Vilahermosa when his own was eaten by a dying parrot.

It probably has a load of old eggs (of a different kind) buried in it anyway.
Prossies had to flush. Couldn't be getting buns up the oven.
featurelessvoid » neu2 years ago
Okay, so Teodor didn't know what it was. That's not the disturbing part. The disturbing part is that he found a mysterious hairy thing and decided that the sensible course of action would be to dip it in his eggs.
bourbonsamurai » neu2 years ago
I assume Teodor was just messing around with it, and then when Ray yelled at him pretended he was about to dip it in the eggs just to mess with him.

wae » neu2 years ago
Not laming or anything, but I feel like it may be difficult to produce more of a Ray vibe (filthy ebay purchases have certainly done him well in the past). And since Ray's vibe lately has seemed to intersect with Teodeor's vibe in the form of humor that is generally genital, it would almost seem to naturally follow that they would encounter the situation of merkin hollandaise.
(Fact: Merkin Hollandaise can, in a pinch, be combined with a bloody in order to turn that mother out.)
