If you want the eggs hot(chopped with butter and salt and pepper (Yumm!) then crack the shell and use a teaspoon to run under the shell and it comes off easily. Otherwise, cool them in water and peel under a running tap.

Spot on there cashman. Boiling eggs is easy so we try and let the ladies do it. It makes them feel like they have achieved something :D

Re: Hard boiled eggs
 

Reminds me of my Grandad's opinion of his own cooking, "I can boil water without burning it." Of course, he would throw the eggshells into the coffee pot, allegedly to settle the grounds. Wonder if Grandad's coffee would generate the effects Less has described?

Ladies prefer hard boiled eggs as it gives us a solid object to throw at the men in our lives. Unboiled eggs make too much of a mess on the carpet.

The eggstractor? When those obnoxious adverts come on the television, it's time to either change the channel, or head for the kitchen.

Think they demoed one of those in the Bridget Jones Diary film. Looked like it could have been used for something else that men might find enjoyable as well.

Re: Hard boiled eggs
 

While we prefer not having things thrown at use, if the ladies are going to lob things in our direction, we gents prefer comestibles. Takes a bit of the sting out, having an unexpected snack!:cool:

Let's just say it requires a certain type of pump action.
