      Is "took out a pot noodle" a euphamism for "had a w*nk" ?

      Given the recent stories in the press.

        The expression should be a Pot Noodle AND a wank. However, over the past 3 years on here the former has started to be used to mean the latter.

        Never by me though. I like to maintain standards!

            I suppose it was always intended as a PN and then a W but since they've brought out those twisty fork thingies you can do both at the same time now.

                  Did Dubai in the late 90s / early 00s. Even then most technical roles were getting stitched up by the Indian mafia. I guess it's pretty much a closed shop by now.
