My brother has no brains

[CumbrianLad]

We'll I have been really working on my sharpening of my knives recently and got them all to a really good standard

So today my brother comes around and he's seen my knives and Whetstone's in the garden

He asks if he can go check them out I say yeh go ahead but warn him they are sharp

As I am making us both a brew (like any British person should with a guest) I hear a huge yelp I go out and see his arm streaming with blood

So I get him sorted out and ask him what happened he goes " I wanted to see how sharp it was so I ran the blade over my arm. It was really sharp"

My brother is 25 and older than me you would think he had some more common sense than to do that

But there is some good points I can take from this

1. I'm the smarter brother
2. I could not help but laugh at his dumb a**
3. My knives are really sharp

Sorry if this was abut long winded or in the wrong area but I thought you would enjoy it

Silly sod... He should of lightly ran it across his finger nail.. To test it's sharpness.

 

[CumbrianLad]

Haha I guess its Darwin's theory of evolution and survival of the fittest

I'm still laughing now

Don't you just hate being delegated the smart brother not by some ingenious doings of your own making but by the sheer stupidity of your siblings, so much so that it would take some monumental stupidity of your own to top it and become the family dunce

I'm guessing you have a brother who is also a numb nuts

Honestly it makes me laugh that he thought I would not be able to get them that sharp

Well that showed him haha

He's not allowed to handle sharp objects anymore

I have 5 brothers and 1 sister and slowly but sure over the years by their own actions i have been delegated top sibling.

Haha so you understand the struggles I have 4 brothers all together

 

[GGTBod]

Worst part is that i have always known i was the wisest and most benevolent, they didn't need to repeatedly prove it with their actions all these years

 

[CumbrianLad]

The problem is you can't cure stupidity

 

[GGTBod]

Yeah you can't cure stupidity as that medicine got stashed away in the CIA vault with the cure for cancer, like cancer stupidity is treated on a case by case basis usually costing a small fortune

1: You are an expert sharpener
2: Be grateful your brother did not try to shave his face with it
3: Give him a plastic knife and fork next time you eat together, just in case.......

I think even plastic will be to much for him may just limit him to his hands from now on and thanks for the compliment

 

[GGTBod]

Plastic brightly coloured sporks all round i reckon is the only way to protect them from themselves, we better make sure it is not the ones with a serrated edge, fork knows the possible carnage

 

[CumbrianLad]

Yes but we never thought about the choking hazard and will they try to eat the plastic maybe we just blend all there food so there is nothing but mush

 

[Sparky415]

That’s funny,
I guess you’re lucky he didn’t try cutting rocks to test their sharpness

 

[CumbrianLad]

I think I would have cut him if he did that haha

 

[robevs73]

Your brother is a clown, he won't do it again.

 

[CumbrianLad]

Your brother is a clown, he won't do it again.

Haha that is very true mate

 

[bob_the_baker]

Put corks on the end of all sharp implements
