I thought the whatnot thing (at the game) was funny.  We all have little catch phrases and mannerism we do.  Don't sweat the whatnot ... and whatnot.

Actually I picked up on it because its a little used word but one of my favorites.  I have a whatnot that my grandfather made.  Its one of my prize possessions.

The one my grandfather made is simple, stained very dark, and attractive.  He didn't make much furnature so I don't know why he made it, other than to hold his whatnots.

The one he made is also a corner one.  That's what's so clever about it.  Its a thing you can put in a corner where you don't have much room.  In general they are like bookcases but each shelf is smaller going up and you put your whatnots and triffles on them.  My grandfather's is more square and sturdy than the one in the pic.

you may have the use of "whatnot" as your thing, or one of them, but my thing is just to be an asshole. most people don't need that repeated, it just shows itself in conversation. but feel free to tell me i'm an asshole, i don't mind. i'm not one to be offended by the truth. unless it offends me. and most things do, so don't bother feeling bad about it. feeling bad about things is a weakness. and whatnot.
