I ate WAY too many ramen noodles when I was a poor college student. I can't stand the things anymore. Here is my top ten list of things to do with the things (humor mode on)
1. Burn them and see what color they make (note: only do this outside in an approved container, following all applicable local, state, and federal laws)
2. Cook them up and use them for pretend brains at Halloween
3. Pretend they're your boss' head and stomp on them when you're mad. Do this outside so that the mess can be eaten by pigeons or gulls, who can survive anything.
4. Crush them and use them for confetti.
5. Crush them and throw them at the ex-friend's wedding. You don't wish fertility on them.
6. Crush them and put them in your roommate's rice krispies to see if he notices the taste difference. Do this during finals week when he's less likely to notice.
7. Glue chunks or bits to poster board. Attempt to sell to art galleries claiming it's 'modern art'. When they refuse, leave it at their back door in the rain.
8. Crush into bits. Spray paint with gold paint. Place in a glass dish purchased from Good Will. Claim it was an idea you got out of a Martha Stewart magazine and watch people rave over the idea.
9. Test permeability of noodles to different chemicals, e.g. acid, alkalines, alcohols, kerosene, water. Use only approved containers and ollow all applicable local, state, and federal laws while conducting experiments.
10. Use bricks to make a snow fort in the winter time. Or use them as substitute snowballs if you run out of snow. Wear eye protection.
