It's probably pretty obvious to most -- but it's wooden toothpicks.

And the quote is from Spongebob Squarepants -- Patrick's song that he wrote himself:
_________________________________
Twinkle, Twinkle, Patrick Star,
I made myself a sandwhich.
My mommy named it Fred,
It tastes beans and bacon,
And smelles like it's been dead.
Writing is hard so I used a pointy pencil
Pointy, Pointy, Pointy, Pointy, Pointy, Point.
P.U., what's that horrible smell?
Drum solo!
(Drum Solo)
I have a head,
It ends in a point
Pointy, Pointy, Pointy, Pointy, Pointy, Point.
This song is over,
except for this line,
You win this round,
Broccoli!

A bunch of toothpicks. Not sure about the title but I can imagine it being said by someone from Monty Python.

is this a bunch of toothpicks?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/27/2011 04:04:03 PM
Toothpicks, the title seems to be a meme that I was previously unaware of called "Twinkle, Twinkle, Patrick Star" Odd... Oh, wait, I just noticed that it's Spongebob, in that case I guess odd was a given, now wasn't it?
