Why are all blimps shaped like huge turds? Is there an inside joke of which I'm unaware?

The older I get the more I side with the witches from fairytales who moved out in the woods and did bad things to anyone who bothered them.

My ex-brother-in-law was a helicopter pilot in the National Guard. After the crash of his third helicopter,

My bartender and I had a bet on who would complain about the weather first. It was harder than you think when it's 107 fucking degrees outside.

^^A9^^

Or, darlin', you could just leave the D out of it like I do.

Don't get me started about the great American corporations hiring Chinese children to do what American breadwinners used to do.

In most families, the black sheep is just the person who sees through everyone else is bullshit.

A very wise person once told me, "If you stress too much about something before it happens you are basically putting yourself through it twice." I feel like some of you people need to hear that.

^^B9^^

Siena, Italy

I've been thinking about the physics of these tables and can't figure out if they would be unstable.

^^B10^^

A library inside an abandoned Victorian mansion from the 19th century.

You would think the books would be worth a fortune. Then why let them sit in there and rot?

^^B11^^

The Giant's Causeway is an area of about 40,000 interlocking basalt columns, the result of an ancient volcanic eruption. It is located in County Antrim on the north coast of Northern Ireland.

I know I've shown you that before but it blows me away every time I see it.

THINGS

^^C1^^
^^C2^^

Whenever I see a mundane object from the past I wonder what was the name of the person who used this? What songs did they sing? What jokes did they tell? What was their favorite food? Did they ever marry their sweetheart? Who remembered them when they died?

And when I finish a piece of art, one of my boxes, or even a key packet I wonder if someone will look at it one day and think the same things about me.

^^C3^^

Proposed Amendments

^^C4^^

Russians

^^C5^^

Alright, who spared no expense?

C3: I do the same thing but with doorknobs and paths. When visiting Europe and coming across an old brass door knob on a cathedral that's been there for nearly a thousand years, I think of all the people whose hand has grasped that doorknob.
I also have the same thoughts when visiting places where the pathway or the stairs are visibly worn; all the feet that have trod upon it.

B4: since when do dash cams track a particular car? Have you ever seen one that wasn't fixed position.
I think this was staged.

Dear B4 Anon, Maybe it was altered from the original footage. I'm assuming there is a film editing program to do that.
