pick and nibble

The habit of using, unnecessarily, two hands to consume a foodstuff.

The ardent pick and nibble practioner pulls small pieces from a food that is held in one hand and and then consume them with the other.

Usage of the second hand has to be superfluous to the task to constitute a true pick and nibble

The visual effect is repulsive and resembles someone playing with his/her food.

Popular pick and nibble fare includes: Pastries, pizza, canapés & sandwiches.

Please note that holding a bag of food (nuts, chips etc) and eating from said bag does not constitute a pick and nibble

"Did you see Nigel Slater eating that cake? Why can't he just bite it instead of doing the pick and nibble?

Random Pick

An event that shakes even the strongest to their bones. The end of days, the end of the world. That time whe- oh it's not me? Ok cool. (When there aren't enough p.o.i's on a speech in MUN and the chair picks a random person to speak.)

C- Since there are no question we will be having a random pick.

You Probably- *Oh God please don't let me be it, I don't have anything to ask, oh please God!*

C- *a country that's not you* you have been picked

2. better than oneshirtwonder.com and canyoudig.com
