    Oh, goodness! I just realized: I don’t have a Turnip Twaddler! …Opus, could you spare a friend a Turnip Twaddler? You’ve got lots….

    They can also be used to twaddle parsnips, whole beets, even rutabagas! Very handy.

    The last must have device doubled as a yogurt squirter. Now, that was money well spent. Twaddling, not so much.

    Now I have a new euphemism. “That just twaddles my turnips!”

    From Ronco, no doubt. And what about the “act now and you’ll receive another useless gadget” schpeil?

    If Opus saw a Billy Mays ad, he would buy the mighty putty or oxy clean, or whatever before he got to the part where he’s like “But WAIT!!! There’s More! If You call RIGHT NOW, you’ll get a FOURTH set, ABSOLUTELY FREE!!! I don’t think that the cartoon “Opus” ever mentioned Billy Mays.

    Order today and get another one for free…

    I remember the days when I would use this argument to TRY to convince Mom to get one. Opus and young teenagers have one thing in common…no willpower.

    I see our spammer is back.

    1,000 turnip twaddlers: $29,000. Shipping and handling: $500. Realizing that you don’t even like turnips: Priceless.

    There are some things money can’t buy. For everything else, there’s a high-interest credit card.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PS: Flagged the spammer.

    It slices and dices too, although the twaddler function is inoperable during these operations……I remembered turnip twaddler for lord knows how many years…I thought I may be the only one….glad to know there are others who remember such pointless crap.
