A spittoon?

 

I was at a hotel once years ago that had umbrellas in spittoons near the front exit. I asked the clerk why they used spittoons for umbrellas and learned very quickly that they didn’t know they were spittoons. It was pretty funny, actually. The looks these people had on their faces. :D

One of the first bits of opera I learned. My father taught it to me. It's from Carmen.

Great decoration. Very nice!

 

And, it will be useful when someone enters the kitchen with a wet umbrella.

Rye walks into a bar without a penny to his name and really needs a drink. He tells Bottles, the bartender that in exchange for a shot of whisky he’ll take a drink out of a spittoon and the bartender agrees. Rye picks up the spittoon and starts drinking. Glug, glug, glug, glug and slams the spittoon down. The bartender pours the shot of whiskey and Rye guzzles it. Bottles then asks why he drank so much of the spittoon and Rye says that he couldn’t stop swallowing because it was all one, long string.

I had one next to the fireplace in my frat house bedroom.  Unfortunately, after a couple years of guys tossing the dregs of beer cans, cigarette butts, and firecrackers into the danged thing the bottom finally blew out.  :huh:

We have one. It’s where all the spare change goes. When it’s full, I’ll take the Mrs. out to dinner. And yes, she gets to go out otherwise... this one is a freebie! :FlagAm:

I was about to share a version with hobos on a train, but you pretty much covered it!
