Bottle-nosed

BOTTLE-NOSED, adj. Having a nose created in the image of its maker.

2009 Update: Of a cetacean species lacking only arms for the making of mischief and, therefore, a food fish.*

*Yes, OC.  I know cetaceans are mammals, not fish.

  1. I thought bottle-nosed meant you could sniff out a good wine.

  2. And here I thought it meant you got your nose stuck in a bottle.

    So, Ambrose is sayin' that God had a big ugly nose? Add that to the things Bierce is burning in hell for.

    bottle-nosed-few thoughts there
    the drinking end
    of a
    long-necked
    beer bottle
    as for
    'fish food'
    as the people
    are minced through
    the budget grinder
    there shall be
    plenty of
    'fish food'
    for
    bottom feeders
    oh man hear the
    grinders now...
    Peace

  7. It occured to me that " bottle-nosed boys would make a great name for a boy band, or boy blog. Any takers?

  8. I don't know, Nessa. I'm can-nosed.

    TLP, I think he meant drunks are bottle-nosed and maybe God made the gullet.

    Jim, when I do, it
    won't likely be in haiku.
    Fifteen syllables?

    Flipper was best with the sound off, like driving.

    Mrs. Paul's voter sticks, Bear? Can I get them with taxpayer tots?

    Sauerkraut, I wouldn't know as mine's more Roman. I suppose built over an amphora.

    Especially for the handless, Icy.

    Sure, Actonbell. Just leave your empties on an ant hill or a picnic blanket.

    Maybe that will be my next blog, Cooper. Cheers!
