MONDAY #3156

One Of My Very Own...

Let's try that again...
Another response from a parent to their kid's teacher.



GYPSIE WOMAN


The only reason for an American to hold a Nazi Flag is after its captured in battle.

Marching for supremacy with flags that are winless in war.

I thought all this shit was behind us.




There were peaceful counter-protestors, which one would expect.


But then some of the "good" protestors decided to not be peaceful.

And there were brawls.

And remember there was no violence until the counter-protestors attacked.

"But then some of the "good" protestors decided to not be peaceful" may be too strong. But the facts are, the "bad" guys didn't burn shit like the college students protesting free speech in California. They didn't block interstates like the Black Lives Matter group. They walked around with some tiki patio torches and said some mean, hateful things.

But then there's this sick fuck.
But sleep tight, he will surely be murdered by the government.

Oh, the irony.

As is...

But can I joke about it?
Oh, hell yeah.

And who's idea was it for Barcelona and Real Madrid to BOTH wear blue? And why in the hell was Ronaldo red carded? I lost a lot of money on that game, but maybe I'll make it up on the rematch Wednesday. Question: Will Ronaldo be allowed to play because of the red card?

Have you heard about the two Scottish homosexuals?
-Ben Doone and Phil MacCavity.
(best when read aloud with Scottish accent)
(thanks to a British viewer for that joke)

TECHNOLOGY AND STUFF

One of only two flying B-29s in the world. A testament to timely maintenance. 

===
Talked to a scientist who said that scientists explain the readings of measurements of various instruments. An engineer makes those instruments.
She would rather be called an engineer.

===
Go buy this stuff and show your children.

===
Sketches of technology and modern society.

===
Megalodon tooth found in Italy
I think it is not a fossil, but I might be wrong.

===
Finger phone in real life.

===
The haul after a couple hours of metal detecting in a cornfield which was once a colonial homesite. Buttons, spoons, saddle hardware and an old coin.

The coin older than America.

What is "Fine".
"I'll take passive-aggressive responses for $800, Alex."


PEOPLE DOING THINGS I 
CAN'T OR WON'T DO


===
All these years and I have never seen this.

===
Thank you Mr. Mendeleev.

===
If I have not made myself clear, I loathe that man.

===
This reminds me of the head I have yet to eat.

===
Bullshit. I would have just told everyone to go get a balloon and dare the event staff to check to see if it matched my name tag.
"Fuck you" is my response of choice in such circumstances.

===
Option A:

Option B:

===
That is EXACTLY what I think about that.

===
When you can see her piercings under her shirt.

===
Well, guess again.
I want to know what he uses as bait.

Let's be honest: The documentary they were making before the Blair Witch killed them would have sucked.


SHIT HITTING THE FAN

I have so very many questions.

===
Storm
There ought to be a way to stop that thing.

===
The next time you complain about your job...

===
A stage fire somewhere.
More than 22,000 people evacuated, no injuries reported. 
That's amazing. You would think people would be trampled in the rush to get away.

===
Woodpeckers

===
What happens to an airliner in a hail storm?
They couldn't even see out of the damaged windshield.

===
Not me. I would have left as soon as I could see the smoke.

===
That reminds me of my wife on our first date.

===
Remember this guy from a while back?

Well, now I give you this guy...
It awes me that we have the technology required to keep this young man alive.
Mind blown.

For a dude who just shot a man in the head, the guy from Bohemian Rhapsody seems quite sanctimonious about getting spit on.


ART AND ARTISTS

Just normal kids hanging out.

===
Finally got an answer to my questions about this.
The sides of the car were covered in wax to aid in removing the concrete, then sections of the concrete was chiseled out.

===

===
This is something my wife would do.
You ought to see our yard.

===
A movie decades ahead of its time.

===
Policeman and mural in Santiago, Chile.

Is it just me?

How it read on IMDB:

A dramatization of the disaster back in April 2010, when the offshore drilling rig called the Deepwater Horizon created a giant explosion, which created the worst oil spill in American history.



My revision:

Dramatization of the April 2010 explosion on the offshore drilling rig, Deepwater Horizon, resulting in the worse oil spill in American history.

Metallica is a hilarious name for a metal band. It's like they weren't even trying.

How desperate do you have to be to attempt that kind of insurance fraud?

re: the half-brain men...
My sister in law adopted two foster children (twins), who were the unfortunate consequence of the father beating and kicking the woman's abdomen when she was pregnant. One child was born quite normal. The second twin was born with half a brain as a result of the beatings. Now they are 4 years old, and it is extremely difficult for a passerby to distinguish between the two children from their behaviors and intelligence. The brain is an amazing thing.

It is indeed. Some of us are lucky to have one.
