My Bacon Hand is Awesome
Bacon, Bizarre, food March 12th, 2010A couple days ago on my lunchtime walk, I purposely avoided a man and his dog while crossing the street because the dog was unleashed. My walking partner asked if I was afraid of dogs and I said “Yes, the ones over 30 pounds do.” And this one looked like a 50lb pit bull mix, not the friendliest looking pooch. He said “Yeah, but he’s missing a foot.”
I hadn’t noticed right away, but the dog didn’t have a left hind foot. He could still walk easily and I assumed he could run after me easily, too, and rip my face off.
That night I had a dream wherein one of my cats’ paws fell off. I saw it a few inches from her body, lying on a pillow. She wasn’t in pain or anything. The paw was detached, that’s all.
So I took her to the vet and they gave her a replacement paw.
And what did the vet replace it with? Of course, a bacon-wrapped scallop paw.
And why did I have this dream?
Because of this video I’d watched earlier in the day:
The lesson here is if you’re going to eat your own paw, it should at least be wrapped in bacon, right?
I mentioned my dream to my co-workers and announced that I would like to have a hand that turns into a compact fist of freshly cooked bacon whenever I so desired. We discussed the ramifications of having such a hand.
Yes, having a bacon hand would be a problem unless the bacon functioned as a gripping device, but my bacon hand would not only be able to still function as a hand, but after I ate it, a new bacon hand would be instantly regenerated just like The Terminator. See? I’ve got it all covered.
In addition, my bacon hand would not be greasy when I need to use it as a hand. It would only be deliciously fatty and scrumptious when gnawed upon. I don’t mess around.
Now, what I need to know is what special powers would you like to have? They don’t have to involve food. In fact, one of my very real special powers doesn’t involve food at all. I can mentally cancel meetings that I don’t want to attend. Seriously.
Would you like a bacon hand? Not practical enough? Would you rather beam yourself places you have to go? Maybe clone yourself so you can get all your errands run at once? Turn into one of your pets for a day so you can see how they live?
Let’s have it!
Stumble it!

Special powers …
I would receive my tax refund without having to file my tax return.
I’d replace the Director of my animal rescue with someone kind who really cares about animals and people.
I would beam my parents into the house next door and I’d go over every morning for breakfast and a chat.
That’s just the beginning … thanks for getting me to dream before I go to bed.

I want the beaming one. I don’t really care about beaming short distances, I just want to eliminate those long car trips.
And every time I arrive somewhere, I rematerialize with bacon in my hand.

As an avid watcher of the TV series Charmed, I would like the power to Orb(or beaming if you will). Think of all it would save on gas, plane fares, etc. Telekinesis wouldn’t be bad either. Oh, and I’d want bacon, too.
March 12th, 2010 at 8:50 pm
I’m with Ann on the Samantha nose thing. I would especially like to be able to beam great designer clothes from the pages of fashion magazines onto body where they would, of course, fit perfectly. This also goes for shoes. And chocolate — which I would consume in obscene amounts without gaining an ounce… and… and… But bacon hand? Not so much. Maybe I’ll just munch on yours.

Personally, I’d just like to be able to shoot my money out of my butt, like my own personal but limitless ATM machine. However, I can see how the money would come out a little messy so I would settle for the superpower of making money grow on trees.
So would your bacon hand be made from regular bacon, thick cut bacon, peppercorn, Sizzlelean, turkey bacon, or veggie bacon? I’m assuming it would be calories-don’t-count bacon as well.

I’ve been wishing I could teleport instead of driving or flying. Think of the time, money, and anxiety it would save!! And if I can’t teleport, then some of Harry Potter’s floo powder will suffice.
March 12th, 2010 at 9:19 pm
I would totally love to be able to teleport. I hate driving – it seems like such a waste of time! How much more often could I visit Disney World or Hawaii if I didn’t have to drive for 10 hours or take a 13 hour plane ride? Not to mention the money I’d save on plane tickets and gas money…

The bacon hand is…interesting.

You have a hand that is made of Bacon and you eat it …, uhm …, Ok you eat your own hand … See, silly me, I am thinking there just might be some pain involved. Actually a lot of pain, then regrowing a hand, uhm …

I am thinking with the neverending bacon hand you might also need the artery of lipitor.

Oh, without a doubt, the ability to transport myself anywhere in the world without having to waste time driving or flying. I live in Los Angeles, one of the world’s most congested cities, and seeing friends who live across town takes a complicated round of organization, traffic checks and blocking out half a day for travel. Going across town is nearly as much trouble as going to San Diego or Las Vegas.
A bacon hand would be worthless to me since I also eat like an LA native – no red meat or saturated fat.

I don’t think I want a bacon hand. You must really want some bacon. I would like the power like some of the other people here, to be able just to be somewhere without driving or flying or the expense of getting there. It would be so much fun to meet all my blogger friends and see my old friends from where I used to live. And I would also like to beam up a bunch of huge buildings so I could take in many more homeless animals. I would also like to beam in the people to help take care of them. Ain’t if fun to dream.

Viveca of FatiqueBeGone — All good ones! Except the third reminds me of that Everybody Loves Raymond episode where Ray and his wife remember how stupid it was to decide moving in across the street from Ray’s parents.
ann — Apparently a lot of people here did too! And I’m going to steal your idea. I’ve decided I need to do the nose wiggle to regenerate my bacon hand. It’ll be like a trick I can show off to my friends.
MzHartz — I just pictured you beaming yourself to a beach in Hawaii and all of a sudden you have a bacon hand. All the people around you look confused.
Linda — Yes, I would like telekinesis. I want to change the channels on TV without a remote, you know, because even that’s too much work.
injaynesworld — Oh, man. Clothes that fit perfectly every time? And not having to try them on to find them? If you could bottle that…. I would share my bacon hand with you. I’ll get another.
Staci at Just Boggled — You have a most awesome superpower wish. Of course, it looks hilarious in my mind’s eye. And your butt also makes “ca-ching” noises when it’s dispensing, like a slot machine. I think I should go for thick cut bacon, to help me when I need to pick things up. The thinner stuff might crumble if I so much as pick up a pencil.
Heather — Agreed! And I like how you’re willing to take an alternate power that will never be. It’s fun to wish for the impossible, isn’t it?
Surfie — So many problems solved. I don’t even have a very long commute to work, but do you know how often I’ve wished for teleportation recently? The older I get, the more annoyed I am with driving anywhere.
Sheila Sultani — Totally. And yes, I think “thingamadoodle” is the scientific term.
April — Ah, yes. You’ve uncovered the inevitable downside to our awesome superpowers. I say there should be absolutely no restrictions or negative ramifications to what we wish for. Seriously. If we’re going to be wishing for crazy things, there should be no opportunities for “Oops, I didn’t think of that.”
Condo Blues — Yes. My boss deemed me that during our discussion about my dream. Although, I think some of you probably already refer to me as that, given my affinity for bacon.
Beamer — Yes, I eat my own hand and it’s delicious. It doesn’t hurt at all. And when I regrow it, it just appears suddenly, no waiting. See, the thing is, there’s no horror involved. In my bacon world, all things are happy. When it rains, bunnies fall out of the sky, everyone is kind to one another, no one feels pain and we all live forever.
Paul — You know it! And maybe the paw should be retractable, too. And when it’s extended, it should make that cool noise that played when Steve Austin ran real fast. Awesome.
Jen — Agreed on all points. Also, since we’re at it, I would like to “blink” myself back to my pre-wedding weight. As it is, it’ll take me a year to get there. I wanna blink it!
Pricilla — Awwww. I would like to see you be able to show your horns whenever you want. And when they come out, they’ll make a spectacular sound and I think they should glow for a minute. And sparkle.
Janiss — I don’t envy you in LA traffic. I can hardly believe anyone puts up with that. How many hours a year do you spend sitting in your car? Although I’m guessing the perfect weather makes up for it. That’s OK on the bacon hand. The cool thing about the power is you can have whatever you want. How ’bout a veggie burger?
Will — It took 17 comments for someone to question my sanity. That surprises me. Although maybe Junk Drawer readers already know it? I love that site. Online therapy. A convenience whose time has come. Thanks for the laugh.
Marg — Yes, it’s a hoot to dream! You’re like my husband. If we had unlimited funds, we would take in all the kittehs who need Forever Homes. As it is, we’ve saved two. That’s all we can manage right now. And yes, I do loves me muh bacon.
Daisy the Curly Cat — I’m guessing you meant “especially after the litter box.” Unless your litter box is filled with cotton candy, in which case, I would love to lick my paws after that! You have very good wishes, but I bet the fish would be scairt to see you visit. Just don’t go hungry!

I would love to just be able to “think” Grand Cru wines into stocking themselves into my own fabulously self-stocking wine cellar. Of course they would have to keep themselves at the perfect temperature, uncork themselves, allow themselves to breathe the appropriate amount of time and them pour themselves into my glass.
I think I’m having a winegasm.

Karen — I would like to skip work all together. How ’bout that?
Beamer — That’s OK. I know I make it hard to respond with something rational. You know, because I’m not.
Fifthmarch — And it should be that you can zap people surreptitiously. But when you want them to know you’re zapping them, lights should come out your fingertips and cartoon superhero music should play.

I wanna be able to fly. But not like an airplane, more like a helicopter, but absolutely without the noise. The hover thing is !important!
Funny thing is that Douglas Adams wrote my dream years after I had it. Only he made lots of money with his version. I think it was in So Long and Thanks for All the Fish, but it might have been Life, the Universe and Everything. Not sure.

Auntie E — I would like that, too. Why has no one perfected this Orb thing? Why must it only be sci-fi? Why aren’t we making more progress on this front?
Duni — I love how practical your wish is. I have a friend who’s a knitter and I think she would opt for a never-ending skein. I did love that purse! So beautiful!
Lola — Hmmm, now there’s an idea. Maybe my cat would prefer a treat dipped in cat nip instead of bacon. Yes, my bacon hand would be fried,but not overly crispy, since I like it on the bendy side. I’d be blinking things to fast and furious I’d never have my eyes open.

I too is afraid of dogs they have bitten my ankle once. That’s why I do the same like what you did when I see dogs approaching.

My cat pulls and chews on her own claws. I used to think she was the only cat alive that wished she would have been declawed…but maybe she just thinks they are bacon? Super powers, I don’t know but being able to become invisible might have its uses. Or walking through wall, I would never run face first into a glass screen door again.

Jenn of Many Cabbages — But that happens to you because I bet you have the superpower to get all the project done on time. Stop doing that!
GDad — Ah, but too easy to use it for evil!
Inflatable — I would not like that superpower. I don’t want to know what people are thinking of me. I need therapy now as it is.
Andre Nievo — I run almost every time. Or get behind someone else so they can shield me.
Jennifer — Easier for your cat, then. She won’t need you clipping her nails. That’s the least favorite thing my cats have done to them (for both me and THEM). Ooo, I like walking through walls. Awesome.
