It's a quote from Chris Finch in The Office:Originally posted by Moose423956 View PostI've never really understood that combination. Why should a wink and a pot noodle go together? In fact, why should anything and a pot noodle go together?
"Bump into the mate whose bird I've done... He says, 'Finchy, you look knackered,' and I'm thinking yeah, and you look like you've had a pot-noodle and a wank, mate."
Series 1, Episode 5, part 4, apparently

Very interesting. I didn't know that.Originally posted by The Lone Gunman View PostThat combination has been around for some time based on contractors living on the cheap. Pot noodle provides the meal and the wink is entertainment often quoted as "a contractors night in". HTH.
See Charles Dickins: "Will you be joining us at the Dog and Duck this evening Pip? No sir, I was planning a contractors night in."
I know that I have been 'amusingly' describing my weekend activities as 'having a Pot Noodle and a wink' for some time.

I have been enlighted & made happy that my closest contact with a contractor is not paying them

And leave a bad taste in the mouth?Originally posted by TheBigYinJames View PostI suppose a wink and apot noodle are shallow versions of their real counterparts. And they both produce stains on the carpet and a vague sense of regret and self-loathing.
