Teflon theory

Say, you know that tired old joke that goes “If nothing ever sticks to Teflon, how do they make Teflon stick to the pan?”
You most probably do, because for all these years it’s been the #1 in the “Haha very funny now fuck off”-category.
Well anyway, the fact remains that I’ve never heard a decent answer to that question (and no, I never use Google either, Einstein).

So I was thinking about it in the car today, and then suddenly it dawned on me…

Yes, it is true that nothing sticks to Teflon. But is equally true that stuff can (and does) stick to pans. So what they basically do, instead of sticking the Teflon to the pan, they just stick the pan to the Teflon! Et voilà!

Stick that in your pipe and smoke it!

Also, I think I don’t get enough sleep these days.
