my boyfriend, the scientist
the other day we were at a friend's house eating and i noticed he had something called a "new and improved no-mess cap" on his ketchup bottle. i remarked that that's not really anything to write home about and then we started talking about how messy ketchup caps are really a pain and you get those little crusties on the cap and sometimes they get in your food and they're chewy and why did it take the ketchup company so long to invent this amazing crustless cap thing anyway and how hard could it possibly be to figure out to start with.
mike took one look at the new and improved no-mess cap and explained this feat of engineering: "hm, it works just like a dog butthole."
