BREAKING NEWS

Semy Goes Without Pringles For 33 Days

 

After living on nothing but Pringles in the second week of March 2008, a time when Easter loomed and a cut in food stocks was imminent in conjunction to Easter weekend, it is hard to believe that something so deliciously addictive would then be avoided for a whole 4 weeks - or to be precise, 33 and a half days. The last tube was popped, and contents subsequently devoured, on Monday 24th March.

 

Reports suggest that this crisis has lead to the victim resorting to eating Doritos, Walkers Crisps and Stax, all in the Prawn Cocktail variety. He is also said to be becoming more and more attached to forums such as Coldplaying.com, and his OCD (Obsessive Coldplay Disorder) is rumoured to have worsened. Cascada is now, tragically, his favourite pop group, closely followed by Avril Lavigne and the Backstreet Boys. Withdrawal symptoms and insomnia have also taken their toll unexpectedly, though the unfortunate individual has yet to clarify the frankly ridiculous rumours that his average bed time is now 5am. Freak.

 

According to a specialist in the field, the levels of Pringolumite in his bloodstream are now dangerously low. "Pringolumite is an essential substance our body needs to keep us sane", he informs. "It is found exclusively in Pringles, which is unfortunately the reason why we are seeing such profound and disgraceful changes in his behaviour. The recommended daily allowance is about 50 units, about 2 tubes a day, to maintain a healthy diet." He adds, "If he continues to neglect Pringles for much longer, intentionally or unintentionally, I'm afraid we are going to see a very serious case of Condition Zero."

 

When pressed to give a description of what Condition Zero might involve, he maintained that the symptoms would be far to gruesome and frightening to describe. "All I'll say is that you wouldn't want him near any pets," he grimaced.

 

We hope to keep you up to date with this story as it happens.

^^

33 days. too many days without Pringles.

HAHAHA

 

this is absolutely BRILLIANT! but honestly, how are you surviving this crisis?! my pringle consumption rate has flown up dramatically since the creation of this thread (even though it was pretty high to begin with), but yours has gone DOWN?! what is this?!

if you don't remedy this problem soon, i'm afraid i'm going to have to mail an emergency ration of pringles to you in a box marked with a red cross, because this is getting ridiculous. if you even dare to reach condition zero before june 13/16/17, i don't know what i'll do. cry lots, probably.

 

so save yourself before it's too late!

ONCE YOU POP YOU CANT STOP :whip:

HAHAHA

Hahaha, well the thing is, ever since i came back home from uni, i havn't really had the freedom to go out and buy them. How would I justify coming back daily from the shops with a tube of Pringles in each hand when my mum expects me to be eating healthily? Plus, I would have to take a bus into town every time i felt a craving for them, and that would be DAILY, so its an expensive business. I hope to feed my addiction in two weeks when i get back to uni though! Lets hope that I can hold out for that long :P

Your very kind to be so concerned for my well being though :nice: :P

Anyone heard that the creator of Pringles died a few weeks back, and wanted his ashes to be kept in a Pringles tube? I'll post an official article if I can find one.

Here it is. 2 minutes silence please :P

 

Designer of Pringles carton buried in crisp tube

By Jon Swaine

Last Updated: 7:53PM BST 02/06/2008

 

The designer of the Pringles crisp tube has died – and had his remains buried in one of the containers.

The packaging was his 'proudest accomplishment'

 

Dr Fredric J. Baur, who was 89, had told his family to ensure his final resting place was the inside of one of his most famous creations.

 

They honoured his request by having his ashes buried in a Pringles tube – and a more conventional urn for the overflow – at Arlington Memorial Gardens in Cincinnati, Ohio.

 

Dr Baur, who was a retired chemist and food storage technician at Pringles owners Procter and Gamble, patented the design for the saddle-shaped crisp’s vertical container in 1970.

 

His daughter Linda told the Cincinnati Enquirer that the packaging was his “proudest accomplishment.”

 

He also invented several other products, including a freeze-dried ice cream, which didn’t enjoy as much success.

 

His son Lawrence Baur told the Enquirer: “Basically, what you did, you added milk to it, put it in the freezer and you had ice cream. That was another one he was proud of but just never went anywhere.”

Now..that's what i call devotion

"A pipe of pringles will suffice" - I love how that line is delivered by Alan Partridge :P

Freeze dried ice cream...........interesting.

^Yeah, that intrigued me too... I wonder why that idea never took off?

 

Too much effort with adding the milk maybe. Ah well.

No harder then making coffee. Maybe we should try to bring it back. After all if the pringle inventor made it, it has to be good :P
