    This may be eligible for Arlo gold.

    Arlo? no, (I know what you’re thinking, but …)
    someone greased the doorknob as a practical joke.
    I don’t know why it took “all [his] lard” which I assume was at least “a pound”

    Given the kid in question - I’m sure all the rest of the doorknobs in Ernie’s house (and probably others) are also greased.

    I’m not sure why you labelled this a ‘Ewww’. He can’t get into his bathroom, ok, but what’s so gross about that? Surely he could find somewhere appropriate to relieve himself…a neighbour’s house, a local gas station, etc. Not the end of the world, really, just annoying.

    Admittedly, the sound effects are kind of uncivilized, but how else would you describe it in this situation? Am I missing something here?

    Ohhhhh…wait! Are those sound effects coming from INSIDE the bathroom? Gottit.

    I don’t think they are, but…maybe…just maybe….

    Ewwwww…

    Actually, I thought the EWWWW part that someone would buy a pound of lard .

    That woman don’t look to me like she needs any more lard.

    It’s a running gag in Ernie/Piranha Club that Spenser (the kid) is constantly playing tricks on Ernie, and greasing doorknobs is one of his favorites. Yes, he probably used the whole pound greasing every doorknob he could find.

    Why is buying lard an issue, unless you are Jewish or Muslim? It’s just a mixture of mono-unsaturated, polyunsaturated and saturated fats. Not terribly unhealthy and highly suitable for making pie crusts.

    Yup, I don’t get why this is an Ewwww.

    “Yes, he probably used the whole pound greasing every doorknob he could find.”

    Including his own, undoubtedly.

    NOW it’s an Arlo. Thanks so much for that mental image JD.

    But why the bathroom in particular? Perhaps the fellow we’re looking at is in crisis, seems reasonable enough… But it’s also the only room to do the personal nasty in that’s often entered by others.

    I didn’t see this as “practical joke of putting lard on the bathroom doorknob”; my first thought was “the last guy who went into the bathroom had lard all over his hands.”

    Ewww.

    The arlo version:

    Vaseline:

    A man doing market research knocks on a door and is greeted by a young woman with three small children running around at her feet.

    The man says, “I’m doing some research for Vaseline. Have you ever used the product?”

    The woman replies, “Yes, my husband and I use it all the time.”

    “And if you don’t mind me asking, what do you use it for?”

    “We use it for sex.”

    Taken aback, the researcher says, “Usually people lie to me and say they use it on a child’s bicycle chain or to help with a hinge. But, in fact, I know most people do use it for sex. I admire your honesty. Since you’ve been frank so far, can you tell me exactly how you use it for sex?”

    The woman says, “I don’t mind telling you at all. My husband and I put it on the doorknob to keep the kids out.”

    Ummm. People, the Ewwww is coming from someone who realizes… that the gentleman in question is trying to ‘exit’ the bathroom… after, ‘having a good time by himself’… wink, wink, nudge, nudge, Say No More! ;)

    Though I think that he is actually trying to get in his bathroom… and, as a practical joke someone has larded his doorknob. The paper indicates #2, which shouldn’t be an emergency… unless they have a 2 pronged attack… he seems to casual for that… so. No Ewwws are required I think.

    DaveR (and others), thank you for somewhat de-squicking the mental picture. But doorknobs covered with lard are still pretty ewwww-worthy by me. Especially since it seems to have been /all/ the lard from the butcher shop.

    Spencer is pumping spooge.
