Curried Cabbage WB

or...who's got the guts

Published on May 23, 2009 By Uvah In WinCustomize Talk

In keeping with the finest of traditions I attribute to the great skinners of the WC community. I have but a single question. With all the jibe about curried cabbage what would a WB look like if someone would dare make one using the now infamous 'curried cabbage' as a theme. Any takers?

The start menu is truly awesome. You've got the right...shall we say...aromatic sense

Seriously though it looks really good. And believe it or not I think it has real potential as a blind. I especially like the head in the gas mask. Cool!

Sorry...I was turning the start button into a transparancy.

Hey V... make a task bar.... green?

taskbar is nothing but a rectangle, I'm almost positive Po can handle that.

Hey Doc, I know this should go in your Medical Advice Column, but it is pertinent here... regarding that 'elective surgery. To prevent spillage/waste when filling the vials, do you thing I should have sphincter surgery to ensure there's no waste or leakage? I mean, if I'm getting in truckloads of cabbage and curry powder, not to mention sour cream and/pr natural yoghurt at a cost, it is going to be too expensive a commodity to waste.... and of course, I don't want the Hazmat/CDC people knocking on my door over excessive emissions.

Oh, and another medical question: once my gall bladder is removed, will I 'bark' less???

*LEGAL DISCLAIMER: Due to the completely deplorable lack of discipline a certain Piratical member has shown by posting his question in an open to the public eye rather than in a 'blind' Medical Advice Thread by email/pm, he can no longer claim medical confidentiality.

1. If such sphincter surgery were performed, it would violate the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, for one and secondly would probably kill you, Captain. I mean, think about it: Closing off the only path of decompression would cause the obliteration of Australia, Micro and Macronesia, Indonesia and The Bismark Archipelago, Bikini Island, Sumatra and Iwo Jima along with Papaete. In fact, the ensuing Tsunami would probably end all life on earth except for 2 cockroaches in the far north of Norway, and some blind, deaf and concussed monstrosities in the Marianas Trench. The shock wave will shatter the moon and alter the Earth's orbit as well as causing adjustments in the orbits of our neighboring planets. It would probably reach the Klingons circling Uranus.

2. Yes, you'll bark less, but when you do bark, it will signal the end of life on Earth. It will, in a very apropos way be "Gabriel's Trumpet" and will cause the End of Days (nights too) AND The End (from starkers' "end").

One might therefore correctly reason that the most deadly weapon of mass destruction would be a small needle and relatively short length of thread required to sew up that "Avenue of Decompression" (located not far from the Boulevard Desanus).

OK, then, the surgery is out! How about a plastic funnel of sorts.... and would it aggravate my haemhorroids?

I think we still have gasssss

It would seems so... but she obviously doesn't eat curried cabbage.... the gas cloud isn't green. Oh, and with all that extra choke, one would imagine the skid marks are gonna be huge.

Thats not gas its one of those new air-powered vibrators

I'm just a bit curious here, v.... from what I hear, those air powered vibrators are still in alpha and have only been realeased to select testers, you wouldn't happen to be one of them, would you???? More to the point, do they work better than battery powered? Just asking cos I could use something effective and cheap to run to massage my gall bladder when it acts up.

Yep...that was the point...Alien Face Cabbage Button, or perhaps a new superhero? We'll never know. Smedley ate it.

Seeing faces in cabbages isn't that odd, Lady X, if you stare long enough:

starkers...they also have a hybrid version. Either a 'plug-in' or...one with an 8 x 4 solar panel for outdoor sports.

DRJBHL...Alien Face Cabbage for the user pane? Who can we get to pose for the avatar

I find this curried cabbage WB idea totally amazing, given it started as a bit of fun in the 'Joe User-Joke User" thread (which I and a few others pirated) a couple of years back. At the time I had no idea the Curried cabbage thing would take on a life of its own... but here we are today, perpetuating its existence with thoughts of creating a dedicated skin. Who knows, it could even become a community suite with a range of curried cabbage components to grace even the most discerning ripper's desktop... docks, Xion and/or Winamp, icons, a cursor, Winstep Xtreme, right click and so on... and I wonder if our dear friend Fairyy~ could be persuaded to do some DX components, even a Rainy???

We know that if farting is involved, RedNeckDude 'll jump at the chance. And I'm sure Messiah1 can produce a few squeakers... and Bilbo a couple of DX rippers.... so how about it people? No need to get your hands dirty... and the smell-o-vision component would be added AFTER your contributions..... to prevent fainting spells mid-pixel.... SkinStudio taking a fit: "Sorry, SkinStudio has met with an unexpected error and has to close." And I suppose in the bigger picture, family members may take exception to the smell and banish you and your puter to the garage or garden shed. So the smerll-o-vision is out until the rest is completed... tho I thought lick-o-vision could prove useful to those who have not tried curried cabbage as yet... you know, a free taste test.

Who'd have ever thunk it.... skins to celerbrate pure farting power?

If the truth be known, while I do enjoy a serving of curried cabbage, I have absolutley no idea if it really has the gas producing qualities attributed throughout these threads. I fart even at the slightest exertion, regardless of what I've eaten, tho I must admit, the barks do seem much louder after a plate of my favourite fare. So I guess it must.

Anyhow, while I'm no skinner, I'm up for the Vista logon and boot... maybe even a few cabbage icons for OD,. etc.

BTW, Po, I quite like that start panel design... that is superbly spiffing, tho I wonder if the green could be a little lighter and more cabbage-like texture-wise.... and maybe the red panels more of a curry colour. Just a thought to give it a little bit more authenticity, tho, you're the man with the talent and ability, so far be it for me to offer more than suggestions.

And Doc, that start button idea is just the ticket.... love it.

As for the avatar....hmmm...a certain Ozzie comes to mind.

Would that pose be with or without green gas cloud??

Do you peopel even HEAR yourselves?????? I thought this was a joke. A knda of 'what if'. You know, there is a world outside your doors! Though, I could work on the start window being more cabge like. I don't know about the brown, but I could try it, I guess.

I would definitely put it on my desktop.

No. No, you wouldn't. And those kinds of remarks just encourage them! And if you did, we would want a screenshot and you would have to have your face in the wallpaper. And a doctors note.
