    is this a rhetorical question, or a serious one? are you worried it would pop in the bag?


    one thing you cannot vacuum...pennies. they'll kill the vacuum.

    I'm being serious...I have popcorn and popcorn seeds on the floor. I didn't want to vacuum it if it would ruin the vacuum though...

    No there's way too many to pick up by hand and they are all over the floor and the couch and the bath tub.

    I was drunk and I came home and was hungry for popcorn. So I put butter in a pan and the put the popcorn in it. Well there was too much butter so it splashed my hand and burnt it. Instead of putting the pan and the bag of popcorn seeds down I took them both and ran PAST the kitchen sink and into the bathroom to cool my hand off in the tub. lol
    As I was running to the bathroom I spilled the popcorn seeds. Only to go back to the kitchen and start all over. I did finally get the popcorn made though and it was good but in my drunken stupor I decided it would be best to use a plate for my popcorn instead of a bowl...so now I have a popcorny mess.

    wow that is a mess

    here's a trick for vaccuming up your popcorn, k. put a nylon over the end of your vaccuum hose. hold onto it so that it doesnt get sucked into the machine. now vaccuum up all of the kernals and they wont go into your vaccuum--they'll get caught in the nylon. does that make sense?

    Yes I have heard of a broom but it is hard to sweep the couch and the bathtub.


    Sorta. I finally just rinsed all of the popcorn that was in the bathtub down the drain...then unclogged it with some cleaner. I picked up some of it by hand but there is way too much to ever get it all like that. The good thing is that it's only in my part of the house. Atleast my parents aren't yelling at me for it.

    I think I am just going to try the vacuum. If I ruin it I can always get a new one, I guess. I am really sick of sitting in popcorn. lol
