Okay now I'm wounded. STOP IGNORING ME OR I'LL THROW ROCKS TOO!
Shit. I just carved a chunk of my knuckle out while cleaning the cheese grater. No wonder people ignore me.
I don't give half a hump if you're innocent or not. So where does that put you?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Unrelated to souls and the like -- you did see the movie, right, Kristin? Did you enjoy it? If you hadn't been in the mood for it at the premiere, it would have sucked to have it ruined, despite the obvious celebrityBuffista allure.
eta: Ha! x-post, I swear.

If I only had a brain...
Graters are the single most dangerous kitchen implement. I always wind up donating blood to the cause. (Or to the potato pancakes, the pimento cheese, ...)

ita, I did see the movie, and I loved it. I know that isn't the popular opinion, but I did. I ate it up and burped like a Frenchman.
ETA: Hee! I know it was. I was just being faux-pathetic.

I don't know if that's true -- plenty of people in the Firefly thread expressing their love. Not to mention good exit poll numbers.
I buy my cheese grated more and more often. I find I'm safer with the microplane, but I still have to be on DEFCON 3 to get away safe.

The sad thing is that I wasn't even really cleaning the grater. I was cleaning the counter and brushed--I thought lightly, but obviously not--up against it. It's bled through two bandaids so far.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Clutziness + Aimee / block cheese = Salad Shooter.

Go microplane. Microplane is your friend.

I've microplaned my fingers too. Smaller, daintier cuts. Anyway, microplanes are no good for coarse grating, such as you need for pimiento cheese.

That's why you let other people do the work for you. Back in the day, I'd have a friend over, make him grate, and then feed him as recompense.
Now I just buy grated.
