Have to wait and see who this could be!
It has been a while since the cat has gone the what to do mile. Though as all I had was a paper clip to amuse. I figured this I could easily use. So what to do has come back once more to my shack. I have to give some dVerse advice and it beats a tack.
What to do, What to do
When All You Have Is A Paperclip To Amuse You!
What to do?
You have become blue.
Boredom has set in.
How can you ever win?
Grab a paper clip.
Keep it away from your lip.
Could get a cut.
Stings like a scratch to the gut.
So move on we will.
Wouldn't want anyone to get a thrill.
Bend the thing and make a shape.
Round like a grape.
Stick up antlers like a moose.
Puckered like a caboose.
Make a chain,
Swing it to cause pain.
Just watch for their eye,
Or any spots that could make them die.
That would be a shame,
If you were to mame.
Pick the nearest lock.
Walk in and cause shock.
Catching them in the act.
You did? Is that a fact?
Or hone your skills.
And test your wills.
The wills of each hand,
There at your land.
Oh where that could go.
Keep your eyes from down below.
I meant make a hockey stick.
Then give a fake puck a kick.
One for each hand of course.
The losing hand gets no remorse.
Later he gets a thrill.
Create a paperclip mill.
Send then down the conveyor belt.
And begin to pelt.
The conveyor belt had a meltdown.
You can't help but throw them all over town.
Balance them on the floor.
Watch as one comes to explore.
Stab them right through their shoe.
A bit violent? I agree with you.
But that is what boredom does.
Makes you do things just because.
Luckily I have all of you.
And now with a paperclip you know what to do.
One little thing can set off a whole post. I am a rather crazy host. So I suppose that is easy enough to come due. I could go on about whatever comes into view. Like that wig lady over there. But would you really care? I mean what to do takes the cake. Maybe I should do one on an earthquake? Or on how to fish for bass. Then maybe I'll get a fishing show starring my little rhyming ass.
Enjoy your winter, smash a printer.
No.#1
ReplyDeleteHank
Back n top
DeleteOf the crop
So close, should have whacked hank with a paperclip, kidding of course, maybe
ReplyDeleteGetting violent now
DeleteOver the first meow haha
It was a coca-cola bottle
ReplyDeleteIn 'The Gods Must be Crazy'
Now one is going into battle
With a 'Paper Clip' that's easy
Such a little thing to bother
It's actually a 'no fight'
Just put it in the pocket brother!
And ordinarily just take flight!
Hank
A movie reference there
DeleteNicely done at my lair
And yeah if only I could take flight
Sadly stuck at 9 to 5 starting at first light
Hank
DeleteThe Gods must be crazy was a funny movie. I was recently thinking about that movie and the bumbling guy who was nervous around women.
Watched both at my zoo
DeleteThey were fun indeed to view
Hahahahah Look at those two guys trying to be king of the hill, and they say women cat fight.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of paper clips.... Don't ever suck one up in your vacum. You might end up tearing the whole thing apart to get it out.
Terry
DeleteI thought you were going to say, don't suck it up your nose.....
Golllleee
Tomorrow let's bring a lunch and watch the crunch.
LMAO I thought she was going to say nose too
DeleteI guess we both lose at my zoo
And yeah fighting over the top
Neither wanting to flop
That is rare
DeleteMust be the air
To both think "nose"
With a rubber hose LOL
Yeah she used that steam machine
DeleteTo create a scene
This is a paramount shining epistle
ReplyDeleteDon't look at me I won't blow the whistle
If a paperclip brings you hours of joy
Praise to the heaven you found a new toy
It's cheaper by far than the ones in Petsmart
And you can't hurt yourself like you could with a dart
Beware of the Feds if you live in a bubble
I'm trying to warn you to stay outta trouble
The project called Paperclip was secret by far
We'll dance to the old tune of swinging on a star
Hmpg blogger at my comment it seems
DeleteGuess the programmers were out for ice creams
Much is cheaper than petsmart
And no matter if the toy can quack or fart
The box is always more of a thrill
To most kitties at any hill
Great tune too
But that you knew
Crazy people put them in their ears and ER docs have to dig them out. One guy even put one in his urethra. Bet that makes ya squirm doesn't it??????
ReplyDeleteOMG....I had to stop for a second and think where the urethra was. LOL
DeleteBlah in every way
DeleteWhy the hell would anyone go there at their bay
That just had to hurt
Blood surely did spurt
ha i can def find a way to fill the day with a paperclip, bend and slip its ends around and make things that will certainly not induce a frown...i have made a bow to launch the arrow, just add a rubber band...find one if you can...
ReplyDeleteYeah making the bow is grand
DeleteShoot people as they pass at your work land
Of course things could get dire
As they may feed you to the fire
Ha, Pat, you would be a good teacher...I could see using 'uses of a paper clip' as a good teaching lesson for kids! I know they would go wild with this idea....and come up with some things that even you haven't thought of. (Ha!)
ReplyDeletehaha I'm sure there would be a ton
DeleteI never thought of under my sun
Teaching with a paper clip
That would sure be hip
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, wonder.... Could a paper clip really pick a lock???? Coooool.
ReplyDeleteHow do they do things like that? Pick locks?
Now you've got me off on a tangent!!! lol.
haha yeah it can pick a lock
DeleteTried it once at my dock
Took me an hour to do
But you have to use two
Credit card is easier though
At least on doors that are older at ones show
See, blogs bring out the crafty in everyone, lol
ReplyDeleteLOL I guess they do
DeleteEven with things you never would expect at ones zoo
The many uses of a paper clip
ReplyDeleteThey can do almost anything except save a sinking ship
I use them on keep potato chip bags closed
Hey - whatever works. I don't care if ppl turn up their nose
haha whatever works I have used a time or ten
DeleteHere at my den
And yeah they work for that
I bet MacGyver could save a sinking ship with a paperclip and a floor mat
Or you could hold a stack of papers together. ha.
ReplyDeletePfft no need for that
DeletePaper gets chewed up by the cat
You forgot the paper clip chain!
DeleteAlways fun to hop the jewelry making train.
haha.
Pfft no jewerly on me
DeleteOr the kitty haha
So many uses of papers clips, who knew
ReplyDeleteTesting your creativity, like new
Day, but no stabbing elsewhere
Because it will get you pain in there ~
Happy Tuesday~
Yeah no stabbing on me
DeleteThat is for sure at my sea
No need for that
Although I may stab Pat
Reminds of the boring times in class
ReplyDeleteYep quite a bore
DeleteClass and work shore
I think I shall Nip instead of da clip!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a plan
DeleteOf which I'm a fan
I never knew there were so many exciting things to do with paperclips! I'm going to go get a few and try some of those brilliant ideas. ;)
ReplyDeleteI got a whole basket by me all day
DeleteSo always have tim to play
I have to admit, I like to play with the clip, forming a chain that can go around my hips; lots of uses for such a little tool, who doesn't know of them is a fool :)
ReplyDeletebetty
haha yeah the tool is handy
DeleteCan make things that are dandy
Many uses for the office tool
ReplyDeleteMake a mini bow and arrow for the fool
Clean a smoking device for your weed
Make roach clips which us pot heads surely do need.
Clean out from under those finger nails
Or make tiny animals, the ones with tails
Flip it, fling it, or throw it away
So much fun to be had at ones bay!
Look who's back around
DeleteDone off playing with your hound? haha
And yeah much can surely be done
When they are given a run
Well now, I never would have thought of that.
ReplyDeletehaha strange the things that can come
DeleteFrom my little rhyming bum
Paper clips make nice things
ReplyDeleteSafety pins also wait in the wings
Bobby pins, now there's a quest
Thumbtacks, though, are the best
Yeah but those I can never have around
DeleteFor the cats are worse than a hound
The dummies will eat thumb tacks
And give themselves heart attacks
You should be in marketing for paper clips! You have brought to our attention so many useful things to do with one!
ReplyDeletehaha if they paid me
DeleteI would do it with glee
Want paper clip fancy?
ReplyDeleteAdd some old postcards,
roll them around,
and see
a curtain...
jingle with twinkle
while mingle
That would be fun to do
DeleteNever know what could come into your view
haha...i will never look at a paperclip the same way...smiles
ReplyDeletehaha never again?
DeleteBoy what I can do at my den
Tomorrow is the first day of Spring. Will you still advise us to smash a printer?
ReplyDeleteNope the printers will be safe for another 3 seasons
DeleteUnless I decide to smash them for other reasons
very amusing. One question. What is the secret of your success? So many comments and such a big following. I enjoy your rhyme and poetry.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
Like to amuse away
DeleteHere at my bay
No matter the stuff
The cat rhymes in the buff haha
The secret you say
Having no life helps at ones bay hahaha
Get an elastic band, open paper clip to form a U and lo and behold a weapon to take an eye!
ReplyDeleteYou'd be grand at that
DeleteReady for war at your mat
You're really quite hip
ReplyDeleteWith uses for that clip.
As a kid, me and my kin
Played with a clothespin.
(Actually, with more than just one. Not the spring kind, the old-fashioned ones. We made dolls and airplanes and all sorts of things with them...)
haha forgot about those
DeleteCan make all but clothes
Sure you can make those too
If you had plenty of clothespins at your zoo
paperclip syndrome
ReplyDeleteI have a few at work
clip this, staple that
rather see the view
from an astrodome
if you can't fly in a plane
make one of those paperclip chains..
lol..enjoy how you can take a simple subject and turn it into something new to view..always a pleasure Pat to stop at your flat..
Can do anything at all
DeleteHere at my hall
And make the chain
Or if fed up let the paperclips rain
Always I.have paper clips but really only use tp papers and in some recipes lol
ReplyDeleteYeah not much to use them for now at one zoo
DeletePlus I'm sure the cats would eat one or two
Lol! I need paper clips as I forget where I put the box! All my papers strewn on the desk.
ReplyDelete~Nas~
haha that can be a drag
DeleteMaybe you need a big bag
A paper clip
ReplyDeleteis what you use
when you are bored
and need to amuse
But best of all
are rubber bands
They're on my door knobs
and on my hands!
On your door knobs too?
DeleteOf those I have a few
Made a 20 pound ball
Out of them at my hall
yep, when boredom is to stay, what to do finds itself a way, no matter the object or the thought, an idea will surely be sought, have some paper clips right here, they've grown dust as I never use, so thanks to the cat, I'll put those dust bunnies away at last, now there is so much to do whenever a paperclip comes in view. And rhyme can make the most mundane object the center of attention. If only a paper clip could get rid of the snow and cold, now wouldn't that action be quite bold. Fun piece.
ReplyDeletehaha have to get rid of the dust
DeleteGive it one big gust
Those nasty things need to go
But are all over each show
And yep the mundane works
Getting rid of snow would be awesome perks
A paperclip...that's what happens when you have a great imagination. :)
ReplyDeletehaha sure have that
DeleteBut tons of voices in the head of the cat
I'm not going to lie Pat, I would hate to just have to rely on a paperclip to have fun haha but that's only because I haven't your imagination, can't believe you made such an awesome rhyme just using a paper clip as a prompt, wow!
ReplyDeletehaha yep one little thing
DeleteCan set me off at my wing
And away I go
With my rhyming flow
Stick it in your ear,
ReplyDeletebut never in your rear.
Your ear gives wax you know.
Instead of little balls of poopy dough.
But then you`d bust a drum
DeleteUnlike your bum
Where you`d just scratch a bit
And leave less full of shit haha
Pat in the Hatt
ReplyDeleteHow about that
Yes it be me
That pawsitive dog Penny
Thanks for the tip
About a paper clip
Reading what you have done
Makes staring at the four walls seem like fun
haha so much for fun than the human at your sea
DeleteI'll send you a flea
Or let you sniff a butt
That will beat four walls in your hut
Nothing more favorite in my book
ReplyDeleteThan Saturday TV Fishing Show
My friend, take a good look,
Then ask yourself, "Where did Steve go?"
Fishing show you say
DeleteI'll have to check out the bay
And then see where you went
Under your fishing tent
Haven't played with a paperclip in a while
ReplyDeleteYou've given me ideas to try with style
And I won't stick it, poke it or hurt
Anybody who may live in a yurt
Gayle ~
haha that is good to know
DeleteWouldn't want any sticking to get blamed on my show
We rather have a fish than a paper clip! Although both do make fun toys.
ReplyDeleteThat they do
DeleteBut the fish is more tasty at ones zoo
We have some paper clips
ReplyDeleteShaped just like pussy cats
But they're so cute, we flips!
So we've never used 'em. Rats!
haha just nice to have I suppose
DeleteNever knew such paper clips flows
i could bust a rib and a zip
ReplyDeletereading what you can do with a paper clip:
bro, this is a real trip in a dish
but if you get on TV -
please put back the fish! :)
haha but the fish is as tasty as can be
DeleteMight have to think about that or send it to thee
hahah, this sounds like me at work! "What can I do with just a paperclip".
ReplyDeletehaha sometimes that is what you need to think
DeleteSo the boredom doesn't bring you to the brink
do like the dominoes effect here... should make us think before we do something
ReplyDeleteYeah think
DeleteBefore one goes to the brink
LOL! If you only knew how many paper clips I have distorted. ;) What a fun poem, Pat. Very much enjoyed.
ReplyDeleteLOL yep I have done a ton too
DeleteBored to death at the work zoo
it's paperclips all over my head now :P
ReplyDeleteHope they don't cause you dread
DeleteAnd get out of your head
Glad to know they still come in handy, now that so many of us are using computers these days:)
ReplyDeleteYeah they still have a use
DeleteAnd suffer much abuse haha
I never quite realized how entertaining a paper clip can be. I'll have to keep that in mind the next time I'm bored. hmmm...maybe a sword fight between two paper clip stick figures...
ReplyDeletehaha that would be grand
DeleteCould do a video of it in your land
Some stop motion thing
There at your wing
