 I now think the doctor should have had this line:

"What flavor is it?"

ADVICE, OPINIONS, AND INQUIRIES

Driving men to the breaking point.
In WWII during the Pacific island campaign, I just heard that more Japanese soldiers died from starvation than enemy action.
^^A1^^


I wanted to couple that with an image of a rack of identical T-shirts with the message BE UNIQUE, but I lost it.
^^A2^^


That's capitalism at work. If there isn't money to be made off them, then fuck 'em.
^^A4^^

It shouldn’t be like this.

This is really pitiful.

^^A6^^

Can we leave the past where it belongs and start correcting what is wrong today? The past can't be corrected but tomorrow can be made better. 
^^A7^^

I have long advocated that there is not a nickel's worth of difference in the two American political parties.
^^A8^^

I have mixed feelings about this.
^^A9^^


 But remember that there are news reporters and then there are commentators. People confuse the two at their own peril.

Him: Did you adopt your dog?

Me: No, he's my biological dog.

FUN WITH LANGUAGE

 Ouch!

 ^^B1^^

 During our trips to Disney World in Orlando, my whole family wore the same color T-shirt each day so we could spot one another from afar.
And just because your tits are not as big as the girl in this photo, doesn’t mean yours aren’t great.
^^B2^^

Math. Not even once.

^^B3^^

 ^^B4^^

^^B5^^

Yeah, I didn't believe it either.

Husband: I am beat.

Wife: You’re the one who wanted to be in construction. I should’ve married a doctor.

Husband: Yeah but *flexing* can a doctor lift 5,000 times his body weight?

Wife: WE ALL CAN, GARY!

THERE'S FUCKERY AFOOT

See anything...odd?

 ^^C1^^

You don't even notice the raptor until it hunts your snack.

 I'm thinking other humans feed the thing so it has no fear anymore.
^^C2^^

How hot is it?

^^C3^^

While filming Predator, Jesse Ventura was delighted to find out from the wardrobe department that his arms were one inch bigger than Arnold Schwarzenegger's.

He suggested to Schwarzenegger that they measure arms and the winner gets a bottle of champagne. Ventura lost because Schwarzenegger had told the wardrobe department to tell Ventura that his arms were bigger.

Video Shows Detroit Police Run Stop Sign, Cause an Accident then Arrest Innocent Driver

But was the driver of the red car completely innocent? To me, he seems to be driving much too fast for a residential neighborhood.
^^C5^^

 "And we'll throw on two ears of corn with this 18 pounds of meat to make it a balanced meal."

Sleeping Whale

 A comment left on the site: "It's probably a dead whale. They sleep head pointing up."
So I looked it up.
No, they sleep up, down and horizontal.

^^C7^^

Vin Diesel is 6'0" and The Rock is 6'5".

Imagining him standing on a little step stool while shooting this makes me smile.
^^C8^^

I have nary a clue...

ALL THINGS COME TO THOSE WITH FORBEARANCE

I bet she busted her ass a bunch of times before her and her horse got it right.

Barrel Mover

 Some guy (or gal) had to just think this up one day. Brilliant.
^^D2^^

Water drops.

And...

^^D3^^

Those magnificent men in their flying machines...

I would call that advancing scientific knowledge as opposed to mere thrill-seeking.
^^D4^^


If that young lady's chute did not open, could the instructor be charged with a crime - like involuntary manslaughter?
^^D5^^

Have you ever wondered how they wash alligators?

^^D6^^

The North American wolverine known to scare off bears and wolves.

And he does it with one very effective strategy - attack, attack, attack...then attack some more.
^^D7^^

Have you ever wondered just how hard it is to successfully refuel in the air?

Hazel Scott plays two pianos at once in The Heat Is On. 1943.

A child prodigy who was offered a scholarship to Juilliard at nine years old, Hazel Scott was a fascinating woman who was strongly committed to civil rights. I recommend her wiki for further reading:

320lbs (145kgs) -> 169lbs (77kgs). Lost 150lbs (68kgs)

 Her willingness to rock a two-piece bikini in the middle photo is a testament to her incredible confidence.
But there seems to be something amiss in the beginning stats.

^^D11^^

One day at a time is the only advice I can give. One day at a time.

Dads in the 80s: I want satellite TV so bad.

Satellite TV installer: How bad?

Dads: REALLY bad

Installer: Like “gigantic satellite bolted to a cement slab that takes over your entire yard” bad?

Dads: YES

MODERN MORONICS

 A friend sent me a picture of his truck that he's trying to sell. My wife asked why it had a little Waffle House dollhouse in the bed.
^^E1^^

Probably. 

^^E2^^

 I'm not sure my wife understands the whole concept of freezer bags.
^^E3^^

 My wife told me that it had so much sodium that they just put OMG.
^^E4^^

 While trying to prepare me a duck dinner my wife burned the cookbook.

^^E5^^

These are the people who are paid to answer your questions on just about anything these days.

NOTE: I made all that stuff up about my wife.

Whenever I had to sign something to send back to my kid’s school, I always worried they would think she forged it even though I tried to use my best “grown-up” penmanship.
