"I. Gomers don't die. II. Gomers go to ground." -- The House of God
Who shot JR?
It IS a word, just . . . not the right one.
Retired teacher whispers: Gall -- to be impudently or outrageously rude and disrespectful in one's behavior or words Gaul -- an ancient region in western Europe, consisting of what is now mainly France & Belgium; a person who lived there
" . . . And mind your manners, as circumstances may require, and never set your dick on fire."
If it's just you, put everything you bought in the fridge for tomorrow and have a 'comfort food' dinner tonight: a big bowl of cereal; a can of Spaghettios; buttered toast; a slap-together sammie; whatever you've got handy. Fancy dinner can wait 'til tomorrow. Now go find something good on Netflix.
Now I want a jelly doughnut!
THE MITOCHONDRIA CAN BE SPOTTED IN PASSING BY RFK JR AT THE AIRPORT.
So, basically, "there is a dead cat"?
From a song in the animated "Cat in the Hat" -- Cat. Hat. In French: Chat. Chapeau. In Spanish: El Gato. And a Sombrero.
Pah-dum-PAH!
I have bagpipes and my wife rocks a didgeridoo. We're gonna sound GREAT!
.@darrylayo.bsky.social Since you skeeted "Dog people are bad people" and then cowardly turned comments off, I unfollowed you and have only this to say: As a Dog Person, with 2 lovely rescue pups, you can fuck ALL the way off!
Fork, yeah!
"People talking without speaking. People hearing without listening. People writing songs that voices never shared, and no one dared disturb the sound of silence."
The Three-Fold Law. This is the way.
This article just skims the surface without getting into detailed information (WHAT made them think wife was shot, THEN moved? WHAT were the results of wife's exhumed autopsy? WHAT other new info is there?). Why write this article if you're not going to explain EVERYTHING?
I only read the first 20 or so comments, but each one was telling that person EXACTLY that: go fuck yourself.
As long as all 6 of you were consenting, no judgment at all!
Don't miss the post-credits scene on the latest STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS. It-is hilarious! Spock teaching Doug about humanity. (Although if Doug has been studying humans for a long time, he would have already learned quite a bit of it. Still, VERY amusing!)
WARNING: Do not look into laser with remaining eyeball.
If Dr is pronounced Doctor, then Mr should be pronounced Moctor.
Okay.
I'm thinking it has to be base 12, but I don't care enough to go look. Got better things to do with my time.
How so?
Give me the parameters. Are we talking base 10? A programming language? 9 Hungry kids and 10 candy bars? (=9 kids and 0 candy bars) 9 cats and 10 dogs in an arena? (=9 cats Dogs? What dogs?)
Um . . .
I have a file where I keep sayings I love and I've just added yours to it (credited to you, natch, though no one else will ever see the file; it's strictly for my own amusement.)
Maybe do a little research on Eostre and the symbols of birth and renewal (eggs, bunnies), and how Christianity co-opted Eostre (among many other holidays) from the Pagans.
I'm a retired teacher, so it's instinctive for me to assume a question asking for information is genuine and answer it to the best of my ability. On several occassions, I have been the one asking, and have always appreciated a true answer or explanation. But I agree about intent being hard to read!
I'm taking your question at face value. % is a symbol meaning 'percent' or, in this case, 'percentage'. The OP is asking 'what percentage (how many) of MAGAs are Flat Earthers?'
"See them tumbling down, pledgin' their love to the ground. Lonely, but free, I'll be found, driftin' along with a tumbling tumbleweed."
Ah, I remember when I used to say things like that . . .
"You see this tongue? Notice anything? IT HAS NO FOOD ON IT. Please rectify immediately."
Are you looking under my kilt again? We've talked about this.
Big Salad is too busy putting e.coli into every bag of greens it sells to bother with you.
Tell me Nachos is your cat.
"You shoudn't've played checkers, ChefBruno. My old man played checkers with me once. ONCE."
Oh, thank heavens!
I have no context for this, so my mind is jumping back and forth between taxidermy (finches stuffed and mounted) and a cooked entree (finches stuffed with mushrooms and roasted at 300 degrees). Please tell me there's a much more pleasant third option!
I read this multiple times, sure I was missing something, but, no, it's a double negative. Maybe the result of fast editing? "Trump DIDN'T received NO military decoration . . . "
Pbbbb!, she replied crabbily.
"Aaaand noooow . . . Congresswomaaan Jayapaaaal . . . on Iiiiiiice . . . !" No, no, no, bad thought! They did NOT mean her on skates in an ice rink! Toe pick!
Me, too! Looking forward to trying it!
Thanks for the heads-up. Just changed my grocery order from Daisy to Breakstone!
"Let our love be a flame, not an ember. Say it's me that you want to dismember. Blacken my eye, set fire to my tie, as we dance to the Masochism Tango. At your command, before you here I stand. My heart is in my hand. Ugh . . . It's here that I must be." -- Tom Lehrer
It says in the article (which is from May, 2023), that when people go off the drug, all their food/drug/alcohol compulsions come back. No idea if there's been any change in that in the nearly 2 1/2 years since this was written.
Doot-doot-doot-doot-BLAAAAAAAAAT!

Ditto! And it helped with siging along!
Another great sub site is addic7ed.com (yes, that's a seven, not a T). They have nearly every sub you could imagine, with lots of volunteers translating the Eng subs into other languages, as well!
I bitched about the tiny texts/emails not too long ago. SO agree with you on that!
The mismatch of words and mouths drives me crazy! English captioning with original language all the way!
My advice is about not touching/cutting lettuce w/a metal knife unless you're IMMEDIATELY eating every single spot touched. The metal causes a reaction, which is why lettuce knives are sharp, hard plastic. (And don't touch cheese you're not immediately eating--oils on your hands cause mold to grow.)
Walks down the aisle to “Short People."
It took several minutes puzzling about your caption to work out the following: Look at my deaf dog sleeping in silence, then sitting up attentively when I loudly played music from White Stripes, a rock duo, probably because she could feel the percussive sound waves. Dd I get it right? Cool pup!
"New York. London. Paris. Munich. Everybody talk about pop muzik!" Sorry, were we not quoting songs that fit the pattern?
I didn't find Umbrage, but I did stumble across Snape, with McGonagall peering around the corner . . .
Retired teacher asks quietly: * constitute ?
I agree with the sentiment, but placing the sign IN the bike lane and completely blocking it, thereby FORCING the cyclists to dangerously veer into the car lane to get around it is stupidity itself! You're CAUSING the problem you're trying to fix!
Is a puzzlement!
Billhelm is so mysterious to me. He has a certain je ne sais quip about him.
It was one step above green ray and two steps below violet ray. We're not even going to discuss yellow ray.
Not the son-of guy; it's his Mexican-American colleague, Jesus.
Yes, it was MSN (Microsoft Network) combining with NBC News. MSN + NBC = MSNBC.
Pretend I was clever and tossed this quote at you BEFORE you answered: "Goddammit, Jones, where DOESN'T it hurt?" --Marian Ravenwood "Indiana Jones"
I'll even skritch you behind the ears.
This piece is so well done, but all I can think of is what the interior gastro-intestinal works of a carnivorous-herbivorous hybrid would look like!

Pardon me for bothering you. Won't happen again.
@corduroycheddar.bsky.social Since you turned off comments on your skeet showing your cat Argon lying upside down and 'being weird': Argon is just being inert.
I apologize. I didn't mean to ruin your fun. I took it at face value. My bad.
AI-generated. Also, a UK Subway (coffee is 80p). Wrong time of year (fake snowflakes on windows, 'festive feast').
"People won't remember what you said. They won't remember what you did. But they WILL remember how you made them feel."
I've developed an automatic hand-in-front-of-her-chest technique that blocks about 99% of the darts, and only growl softly at my friends when they say, "Awww, why are pushing her away? She LOVES you!" I'm just lucky it wasn't 35 lb. Big who got the licker gene. Rescue pups are the best!
and having my friends sidle up to me, murmuring that if my adoring wife was abusing me, they'd help me hide the body.) She's missed my eye by FRACTIONS at times. (I have a recurring nightmare where I explain why I'm wearing an eyepatch -- "I lost my peeper in what I call The Ultimate Boop of '25.")
Problem is, she's HORRIBLE at judging distances, and has, on more than one occasion, driven her nose into the side of my face painfully, for both of us. (And if you don't think a 10 lb. dog can do any damage, you've never seen my cheek red and swollen, looking like someone roundhouse-kicked me,
Little is a Chihuahua/Mini-Doberman Pinscher mix. She weighs 10 lbs, has a tiny body and legs that average 2.2 feet long (I've measured!). She's the love of my life (along with her fellow rescue pup, Big). She's a serial licker and loves, without warning, to dart in to give my face a wet lick.
As a Prius driver, I want to know whose brilliant fucking idea it was to make CONTINUOUS back-up beeps INSIDE THE CAR? The noise can't be heard OUTSIDE the car, so who is it supposed to be warning -- the driver? I'm the one who put it INTO reverse, you feckin' idiots!
Weld, I think it's a great pic!

That's because you didn't stop in the name of love so it could catch up!
Nbody said it had to be a HUMAN baby. Personally, I'd go with a puppy -- more snuggable.
Oh, I didn't mean to offend you. I was just snow-queen.
Is that a surprised face? I'm not good at emojis.
This retired teacher smiles at you.
"Four dead in Ohio" famously refers to the 1970 shooting deaths of 4 Kent University students by Ohio National Guard. Neil Young also sang a song of the same name about this tragedy.
"Look at me. No, don't turn around! He's . . . right . . . . behind . . . you."
here, dearie! Come give us a smooch!", with the players running among them, trying to duck all those soft, fleshy arms. Then I remember that 'geezer' is how Aussies pronounce 'geyser'. He was talking about hot springs, not hot oldsters. Fair play. But my version would have been a lot more fun!
I'm watching an ep of ULTIMATE ESCAPE AU, when the narrator suddenly announces that the contestants "must run over rough terrain studded with hot geezers, doing their best to avoid them." And all I can see is lots of dressed-to-the-nines 80- and 90-year-old men and women waving and calling, "Over
My pup would fit right in. She barks wildly at even the smallest noise, like the air conditioner kicking on!
I pictured my hands on the keyboard and took one away, then frowned that you would have trouble typing apostrophes when they are *right there* where your pinky can reach. Then I had a lightbulb moment and realized I'd be removing my dominant left hand, leaving my right to type. Opposite for you, eh?
ChatGPT tells me it's Lurbg*I*nian.
Gardening. As my grandpa would say: This, I know from nothing. Truthfully, I wouldn't recognize a chive if it walked up and introduced itself. Can you give me a hint what's wrong with these? Are they too big? Not big enough? Wrong color? Fraternizing with the BeeGees . . . ?

I am bored with the flavor options you have presented. What else is on offer?
I see absolutely gorgeous patterned seats of 4 iron-wrought chairs and a partial view of a sturdy black wooden table that probably has a gorgeous inlaid-wood top of various hues . . . . . . and some inconseqential food product in the foreground.
Just don't go chasing waterfalls . . .
The judge peered down at him. "You skeeted that on . . . August 7, 2025?" "Um, yes, sir." "Then you were aware of the possibility. Objection over-ruled! Counselor, have your client sit his whole ass back down."
