Re: We need a GERN thread - AF350 - 02-26-2011
Hi all,
Proposed competition to Gern family line of Flux products and industries:
Super GRENS 1/3 of a percent better then Gern how ever with the addition of Gern it is 3% better.
GRENS = Greatly Reformulated Enhanced Non-disclosed Substance

Is that "new math"?

Re: We need a GERN thread - AF350 - 02-26-2011
it is 3 and 1/3 % newer math
In all seriousness I think it would be very difficult to top the legend of Gern.
How about GEPED (Green Earth Product Engineering Developers) products such as:
Lye soap on hemp rope, Stinging nettles pain patch(in reality there is really such a product),
aloe ale(modern elixir), Goaffer loafers(goaffer skin house dlippers) sani-pest pest control drop caught pests(rats, mice, ect) into vat of acid as opposed to placing in the garbage.

Just found this ad in a magazine.
Re: We need a GERN thread - e-paw - 02-26-2011
well 88 does using GERN fuels also give you 3% more mileage?

Just a friendly reminder ... It is always GERN ... all caps, as it is a mnemonic for Gibson's Extraordinary Remedial Naturalized Flux and therefore, never written out in anything other than upper case letter forms. I don't mean to be a nit-picker, but ... jus' sayin'!
Re: We need a GERN thread - ngauger - 02-27-2011
Yeah - it's an acronym but you don't have to make the letters 3% bigger than the rest of the sentence - but it helps!

After reading all of this thread I now have a headache. Does GERN make a headache pill?
Mark
Re: We need a GERN thread - P5se Camelback - 04-02-2011
Yes ... and it eliminates headaches three percent faster!
Re: We need a GERN thread - Mr Fixit - 04-02-2011
This all makes me wonder about poor Wile E. Coyote and his quest to catch the Road Runner.
Would Wile E. Coyote have been more sucessful if he had used GERN products instead of ACME ones?
What about when dealing with Bugs Bunny?

Re: We need a GERN thread - Ralph - 04-02-2011
The thought of Wile E. Coyote ("Suuuuuuuuuuper Genius!") having access to GERN products is unsettling to say the least! Who knows what nefarious doings he might have perpetrated had he the advantage of 3% superiority!
Even the street wise Bugs might have met his match!Ralph
Re: We need a GERN thread - Gary S - 04-02-2011
Woah, if you think back to all the times the coyote was right on the roadrunner's tailfeathers, there is no doubt the cartoon would have ended if coyote had GERN to boost him 3%.

If your headache is caused by muscle tightness in your upper back and neck...

Re: We need a GERN thread - Mr Fixit - 04-04-2011
Not sure if I like the idea of taking 6 pills morning, noon and night.
I told my folks all about GERN and its wonderful properties and how it improves everything by 3% and we had a good chuckle over it. Even Mum was cracking a GERN joke or two, now thats a first, it must be due to the wonderful properties of GERN.
I even suggested that they start using GERN dishwashing machine flux for a 3% better clean, with 3% more sparkle, using 3% less water and 3% less power.
