chained_bear commented on the word pickle jar effect
'Allison's take-charge attitude is what Patti calls the pickle jar effect. "We are so successful today, women. We're fabulous. We work hard. We make good money. We parent. Sometimes what happens when we spend a lot of time alone, we forget to let them open the damn pickle jar," Patti says.
"The one thing I don't think is ever going to change on this planet is men still need to feel like men," she says. "So let them open it."'

I feel like a man when I open the pickle jar, but I also feel manly when my woman opens the pickle jar and feeds me pickles by hand. It's a win-win!

I don't mind opening the pickle jar and feeding my man.
He does, though. Cuz, you know, it drips on his shirt, and stuff. Also, I am far, far fonder of pickles than he is.

Come on Mr Bear, get your pickles down yer!
Actually I'm not terribly keen on them myself. Small doses only. A pot of teeny-weeny cornichons with my steak tartare. My wife is a pickle-maniac; it's quite unseemly!

I made my own pickles for the first time this year -- and when it was time to eat them, I opened the jar all by myself...
