» 45 Kludgers Kludging

  1. Bob-H says:

    Anything can get fixed with Duct Tape, Vise Grips, and WD-40.

    Two out of three isn’t bad.

  2. Grantski says:

    This is gonna be one EXPLOSIVE 4th of July.

  3. John says:

    I don’t get it. Where’s the joke here. That somebody is using a packable skillet handle on what might be a wok?

    • imantodes says:

      I think the kludge is that there appears to be some duct tape on the jaws of the handle. Otherwise, it seems to be that someone is using a manufactured device for its intended purpose…

  4. gancos says:

    What is that? It doesn’t look like popcorn…

  5. pierre says:

    I was going to mention the popcorn, but you people do know that you can buy kernels in big bags, right? The kind that you don’t put in the microwave?

  6. gancos says:

    If it were popcorn, don’t you think there would be popcorn all over the stove?

  7. Bob-H says:

    I think I’ll pass on the re-fried popcorn.

  8. bunniemagyk says:

    Ummm…. those are scrambled eggs I think, not popcorn.

  9. nealbirch says:

    looks more like scrambled eggs from here…

  10. Danny says:

    Where in the heck do you get a pair of sideways pliers like that? Those are nuts!

    • cap'n obvious says:

      They’re pot-holding pliers. You’ll often see them used for camping to save weight/bulk. Just Google “Pot Gripper” and you’ll see what I mean.

    • Sarge says:

      No, they’re pliers, but thanks for playing. As a fabulous parting gift, please accept this fabulous bag of nuts.

    • Eman Resu says:

      I believe those are the tongs/pliers used to serve deep dish pizzas.

  11. Jeff Lichtman says:

    I don’t think it’s either popcorn or scrambled eggs. It’s the type of fried rice that’s used in Chinese sizzling rice soup.

  12. UberPest says:

    I’m sure those are some kind of pliers I’m not familiar with, but they look very much like pot grabbers–the kind of thing you use on backpacking/camping cookware.

  13. coyote INFJ says:

    “THE WOKS HANDLE BROKE OFF! WE CAN’T FIX DINNER! WE’LL ALL STARVE! AHHHHHHH!!!”

    “Calm down Charlie and get a grip.”
    :idea:

  14. Sarkasm says:

    Fixing dinner in a pinch. You’re doing it unorthodoxly

    • Sarge says:

      *May contain popcorn.

  15. Eman says:

    I’m not 100% positive, but I think the pliers shown in the picture is(are?) the tool that is used at Pizza Hut to serve the deep dish pizzas.

    and since we’re on the subject…. The words “pliers” and “scissors” are so hard to use in a sentence. They’re one item and as such I think are supposed to be considered singular, yet it seems so wrong to do so. Curse you ambiguously plural words!!!

    • Jayo says:

      A pair of scissors. A pair of pliers. Each tool has two pieces fastened with a pivot.

      Anyway, when you hear someone say “give me a scissors” you just know it isn’t “a scissors”.

      Both scissors and the word chisel come from the same Latin base “cis” = to cut.

  16. JDARKHUNTER says:

    in the one hand, there is the car kludge held together with nothing but a vice. and in the other, is the prospect of a deliciously kludged meal via said car vice……. that car wasn’t gonna last anyway

  17. Mastiff says:

    mmmm yummy white discolored stuff may I have more?

  18. Christine says:

    I’d rather see the vice/plier thing pointed upwards.

  19. Dogmeat says:

    Panhandling has become more common in our troubled economy, forcing many to do what they can to scrounge up some food for a single meal.

  20. dono1 says:

    I have a feeling that pretty soon, that popcorn will be out of the frying pan and into the pliers.

  21. HEY! this kludge is actually pretty good! I have a wok without handless, the piece of crap always causes me 2nd degree burns!

  22. Archangel says:

    It’s easy to fix the handle that came off, folks. They just need to whip up a batch of potstickers!

    No applause; Just throw 10′s & 20′s at me…

  23. Jim Honaker says:

    The parrot wrench, thought to be extinct, is found eating a pan. With the most impressive bite force in the wild, it can and will eat anything that comes in its path at the wrong time. They are particularly fond of popcorn flavored skillets and pans.

  24. ZiggyMama says:

    What’s the big deal? When i worked at Pizza Hut way-y-y-y back in the 70s, the best grabber for the pizza pans was always a pair of Channel Locks.

  25. Killbane says:

    I don’t see the “fail” here…
    Someone is using a old (late ’70′s) “stone river” pot-grabber that has duct tape on it to prevent scratching the non-stick surface of the pan…
    What’s the big deal?

  26. Gretz says:

    The duct tape is to avoid scratching the expensive teflon surface of the pan. Whatever it is that they’re cooking, I’m sure you don’t want it sticking. I think it’s Nutra-slim and powdered eggs, if I had to guess.
