"Would you like a bag and board with that?"

If you're used to hearing the question, "Would you like a bag and board with that?" every other week or so, what habit do you have?

Oh Lordy, is that comic book geek-speak? Ouch, I thought I'd heard that last of it.... One day at a time, trust my higher power, call my sponsor, etc.

I had a couple of interesting days trying to figure it out, including the guesses:

* Surfer. Trying to upsell other items to someone who has just purchased a wetsuit. Board to ...well... surf on. Bag to hold everything.

* Butterfly stufferer and mounter. Pinboard for one's dried creatures. Bag? Well, one can't be a stufferer these days without a nice bag.

* Dart(ist). Well, you can't use those shiny new darts on an old board, now can you? :)

You can tell I was really stuck for ideas. I come from a different genre of geek - my obsessions are usually small, digital and crawling across my screen in battle formations.
