I must admit that a similar thought occured to me, but you have a much more vivid imagination

OK now, must concentrate - think tomatoes - and rocket - and basil - uh-oh, field overflow I can't think about all those at the same time - should I do it one after the other?

Being a windowsill farmer is a lot more work than I thought


OK - here's the plan:
1. Think tomato!
2. Think rocket
3. Think basil
4. Think "why did I ever plant so many bluddy green things."
5. Think weeds.
6. Think "Bugga I planted the wrong kind of weeds. These aren't happy weeds."
7. Think "Don't I have a life somewhere outside of this window sill?"
8. Think "Crap, there's only the window sill, keep thinking."

Now:
1. Wipe perspiration from brow with authentic red farmer's kerchief.
[If you don't own one, hop on the metro to the closest farmer's market and buy a gross - it's going to be a long summer before harvest time!]
2. Open a bottle of vino [ditto instructions to #1 above if the wine rack is empty.]
3. Check the number of pilots & amount of ammunition you have left to control the green invasion. [In a pinch, umbrellas & flashlights will do. Don't think you can buy pilots & ammunition at the farmers' market. But then you are in France.]
4. Make appointment with pshrynk to explore why you ever:
1. Started this #*@)#_$( garden
2. Shared this with witnesses.

Please pay $300 to the chicken at the coop door.

ok, see this thread has just illustrated the biggest problem with gay men... two men living together creating that incredibly outrageous stinky thing that happens in the toilet around men. I mean SERIOUSLY!!! the only time women are that stinky is when near death. or giving birth. or occasionally on their periods. but two men eliminating that horrendous smell daily and sometimes TWICE a day!!! and come on guys!!! I know how y'all get! you try to have the biggest, the smelliest, you start naming them... and then concentrate that...

yeah... where's my gas mask?

Sounds like a good plan - but I can't, I'm busy trying to figure out what ganja wood is and what it has to do with erections

Another example of cross-cultural jokes/puns not translating well.

Lets see: Ganja wood > ganja > weed > apocryphal effect on male anatomy > slang term for said effect on male anatomy > notorious tendency of males to equate said effect on male anatomy with tallest/longest object in the world. Clear as mud?

Aaaahhh, thank you

Now I can concentrate on getting that genuine red farmer's kerchief - gee, they told me farming was expensive but I didn't know about the incidental costs!

Hope your butt doesn't hurt too much.

Don't forget the wine! You'll need to drink - to forget why you ever started this project!

And - just be glad I didn't insist on genuine farmers' bib overalls!
