how deep do you dig?

its a chip moral question. how deep will you dig?

i rcv'd then assploded the arrival of some BJs straight into the trash..... raw chicken, two day old sushi...kinda trash.

i found all the chips, yuck...

how deep would you reach for your chips?

if you dropped chips in the urinal vs the "fax to china" unit? would you reach for it?

how deep will you reach for chips...

this should be a poll.

Re: how deep do you dig?

back in the dice chips days, my dog had diarrhea in the house, and then covered it with the chips (they were out for whatever reason).

i spent hours scrubbing those bad boys, and a month later spurned them for a 900 piece set of desert sands ceramics, unfaithful bastard that i am.

If it was one of my single collected chips, that's a hard question.

You're asking a bunch of folks who would be pefectly happy sitting in their basement scrubbing Katrina-mucked chips with a toothbrush for weeks (pre-pipeshield)

I'd say I draw the line at a public toilet.
urinal's ok though, but you'd be dang sure it got a bleach bath at home.

Re: how deep do you dig?

It definitely depends on the chip(s) and their value relative to your net worth. JoJo should be able to work out some kind of formula for you to use. Although, I'd question going through dog puke for dice chips no matter their relative value (but who knew?).

Re: how deep do you dig?

I would dig all the way to the bottom of the can.

Wait, my chips or your chips?

Re: how deep do you dig?

I was thinking about this during the commute home tonight...

trashcan - no problem.
urinal - probably if I could use a stick or something to fish it out.
crapper - again, if I could do it without having to put my hand in there.
outhouse or port-o-potty - forget it...
dog crap on em - begrudgingly, but yeah i would probably clean em too...

Whats funny to me, if I dropped my cell phone in the crapper.... its time for a new one. i am not going for it, but if it was a chip - id probably give it a go.

pretty funny what CT'rs will go through to keep their chips.

Re: how deep do you dig?

Depends on the chip. Top end chips, yes, bottom end chips, NO.

This gave me a pretty good laugh. I guess probably because I would be the same way.

I'd have to laugh at a dog covering his accident with poker chips. I might try to clean dog poo off of ceramics if it was more than $10 worth.

I suspect that the chips are still useable though. The phone would probably never work again. I might fish out the phone though (with proper fishing equipment and ziplock back) to save on the $50 insurance deductible.
