I don't always whoop but when I do there it is.
You either grew up in a soda + appetizer family or a "just water is fine" family.
OBJECTS OF INTEREST
This is a view from where I sit in my office. See anything...odd?
The way the light hits the protruding tissue...
Looks like my nephew.
I bought this hot water bottle in Paris and look at it every day.
After the SECOND time I crushed my right wrist I invented an exercise to hone my fine motor skills. I took large sheets of graph paper with a tiny grid and printed the alphabet incessantly.
And on this one, the N and the A lined up diagonally to spell my mother's nickname.
And the diagonals in the K and the X creates a line.
As a matter of fact, the slightest increase or decrease in the amount of ink required creates a pattern.
I have noticed that some of my images refuse to load and this shows up instead.
You can right-click it and open it in a new tab to see it...if you are so inclined.
We've all known women like that, haven't we?
I wonder what this TV was used for.
I'm not so sure that is a "TV" as much as a CRT.
A 35-story building in Dubai caught fire.
I know I'm speaking out of turn, but why would there be ANYTHING that flammable in a skyscraper?
I once proposed hanging two murals on canvas in a school and the fire marshal insisted that I show proof that they had been treated with a fire retardant.
My neighbor behind me erected a 6' privacy wall around his backyard adjacent to my chainlink fence due to him having a swimming pool installed. But when he got to the corner, instead of cutting a section to fit he just put it up diagonally like this.
I have always wanted to plant marijuana plants in that triangle that I call No Man's Land.
"I don't know much about art, but I know what I like."
The electromagnet of the crane moves the ferromagnetic scrap.

"In Taiwan, Pizza Hut is closing in on the competition with a new creation called the “No. 1 Salted Chicken Pizza in Taiwan“. While the name seems simple, everything about this pizza is not, as it contains some seemingly disparate star ingredients — Taiwanese fried chicken (aka popcorn chicken), Oreo biscuits, and fried squid rings."

The first pizza restaurant to open in that German town where I was based didn't understand when I ordered a pizza with everything. So, I went back into the kitchen and mimed putting a little of everything in the kitchen on a pizza. When the pizza arrived it was covered in lettuce and four fried eggs.
Indeed.
Would one of you cat owners please let me know if that works as advertised?
Why, pray tell, wasn't it shot?
If there were a prize for not having even one winning number on multiple Powerball tickets, I would be a millionaire.
Everybody’s big on freedom until they find you passed out naked on their boat.
PEOPLE MORE FAMOUS THAN ME
Those are not lightweight epees.
When you are cornered, your only option is to be brave.
If you can't be a role model, be a cautionary tale.

*I lost the part of the article that profiled people who swore off having childing after spending time with that one.
That would be me. No matter how many people were on my mural crew I took a nap every afternoon no matter where we were.
And there are still people who think that's a bad idea because I assume, there's no money to be made from it.

Libs? Who the hell does the stupid bastard think buys Teslas? Conservatives?
Please don't think I'm obsessed with that guy. It's just that today every site I visited was full of memes about him.

And if you eat it they will come...
Alexander Tominsky achieved social media notoriety after rising to the challenge but told Newsweek he will "never eat another rotisserie chicken" again after going through the experience.
Watch his face.
My heroes.

Opening lines from famous movies
“Hunger strike, eh? How long has this been going on?”
“Last night, I dreamt I went to Manderley again.”
Senator Samuel Foley - dead, yeah, yeah, died a minute ago - here at St. Vincent's.”
“I never knew the old Vienna before the war, with its Strauss music, its glamour, and easy charm - Constantinople suited me better. I really got to know it in the classic period of the Black Market. We'd run anything if people wanted it enough and had the money to pay...”
“I beg your pardon, but aren't you Guy Haines?”
“You never did eat your lunch, did you?” “I'd better get back to the office. These extended lunch hours give my boss excess acid.”
“He was the most extraordinary man I ever knew.”
“Maycomb was a tired old town, even in 1932 when I first knew it. Somehow, it was hotter then. Men's stiff collars wilted by nine in the morning. Ladies bathed before noon after their three o'clock naps. And by nightfall were like soft teacakes with frosting from sweating and sweet talcum. The day was twenty-four hours long, but it seemed longer...”
“Don't tell me, you didn't know it was loaded.”
“As in every stone of this size, there is a flaw.”
“Hey boy, what you doin' with my Mama's car? Wait there!”
“Please, sir, I want some more.”
“Here you are, sir. Main Level D.”
“All right, Curly, enough's enough. You can't eat the Venetian blinds. I just had 'em installed on Wednesday.”
“Will you just watch the hair? You know, I work on my hair for a long time and you hit it. He hits my hair.”
“He even took the gramophone on safari.”
“On the 23rd Day of the Month of September in an early year of a decade not too long before our own, the human race suddenly encountered a deadly threat to its very existence, and this terrifying enemy surfaced, as such enemies often do, in the seemingly most innocent and unlikely of places...”

The most stupid thing about the N-Word is there is an entire group of people that can call each other that word on the street, put it in their music and no body blinks an eye. But if another group of people put it on twitter everybody loses their mind.
Dear C8 Anon, No one expects you to understand it. You have never been oppressed and degraded for generations. The victims find it disrespectful coming from white people. Okay. So, we respect their sensitivity. What's the big deal? I imagine if, say, your white barber called you "honkie" you would laugh, but coming from a black man on the street your reaction would be less than accepting.
Choose your battles carefully, my friend. This one isn't worth the effort.

Dear Gentle Readers, I find it interesting that in my lifetime people had no problem with black people being required to sit in the back of the bus, drink from different water fountains, etc, etc, etc, now don't like different rules for different people.
It reminds me of complaints about a Miss Black America Contest forgetting that we had a Miss White America Contest for decades and no one saw anything wrong with it. And whine about having a quota for black admissions to college when just a few years ago we had a 100% quota for white people.

You probably already know this but Dr Barry was a woman posing as a man.
