    Bottle

    Whether it's translucent, transparent, opaque, glass, plastic, or some other material the bottle can be your best friend, or your worst enemy. Sometimes filled with liquor, or maybe an extra supply of lantern oil.

    While I was trying to find out what user TGB's name stood for, I came across this song for children which is popular in the UK I'm told:  

    Ten green bottles sitting on the wall,
    Ten green bottles sitting on the wall,
    And if one green bottle should accidentally fall,
    There'll be nine green bottles sitting on the wall.  


     

    In the U.S. we have a similar rhyme:  

    Ninety-nine bottles of Coke on the wall,
    Ninety-nine bottles of Coke,
    Take one down, pass it around,
    Ninety-eight bottles of Coke on the wall. 


     

    Did you Brits know that?

     
    PS: @simian: I recommend singing this on your flight to Maui. Start at over 9,000.

    Both songs are sung in the UK. Although it's 99 bottles of beer, not coke.

    ...Not anymore, it used to be 99 bottles of beer on the wall, then someone took one down and passed it around, now there's 98 bottles of beer on the wall :P

    Also, this thread makes me think of Lemmings:

    Hmm, it seems like too many Lemmings have died for me to successfully complete this level.

    It is kind of dead on Mondays around 4 a.m. Pacific Time, but that's to be expected.
