PONDERABLES


Remember all the talk about the US invading countries with oil? But as of right now, we occupy none of them. We took them and gave them back.

^^A1^^

So, just showing us her naked butt would be too much?

^^A2^^

^^A3^^

Don't gaslight yourself.

^^A4^^

And my first decree would be that if you do something even though you know it's wrong then your dick gets small or your vagina gets bigger.

^^A5^^

It's no less sad if it's a bombing in Ukraine instead of an earthquake in Türkiye.

^^A6^^

English people season their food with water.

A Boston terrier is just a regular terrier who gets drunk and screams about sports.

PEOPLE NOT LIKE THE REST OF US


I'm still perplexed that people we have never met just picked a few words that none of us are allowed to utter. It's just so arbitrary.

^^B1^^

Why the fuck not?

^^B2^^

^^B3^^

I have never had to be anywhere that would require me to do that.

^^B4^^

I knew a man in his 50s who quit his executive job, moved to the beach, and for the rest of his life, he walked up and down the beach selling suntan lotion. I think about that man often.

^^B5^^

You gamble on your own well-being and demand that medical professionals make you all better if you lose.

^^B6^^

^^B7^^

That always worked for me.

^^B8^^

How do you not know where the leash is?

^^B9^^

^^B10^^

The most human thing I have ever seen any of them do.

^^B11^^

That story needs its own six-part Netflix series.

^^B12^^

Our old friend juxtaposition...

^^B13^^

The way society deals with that is to make them less than human...less than ourselves, but the truth is, you have more in common with a homeless person than a billionaire.

^^B14^^

I made no New Year's Resolutions. It is the circumstance's turn to improve.

I'd rather be pissed off, then pissed on.

OBJECTS OF INTEREST


^^C1^^

^^C2^^

After midnight, that would be just about everybody.

^^C3^^

Speaking of...

^^C4^^

Is that irony?

^^C5^^

I used to hang off buildings just like that. We went to a tent and awning company and told them we needed a dozen sandbags. When we went to pick them up they were just bags with no sand. We protested and they filled the bags and sewed them shut. These we laid on the T at the end of our support.

^^C6^^

Beats a chain and lock.

^^C7^^

^^C8^^

^^C9^^

^^C10^^

How wonderful.

^^C11^^

If someone farts at a poker tournament, no one will ever know who did it.

Every paper towel commercial should remind you that the cleanest solution is to just not have children.

UNUSUAL OCCURRENCES


^^D1^^

^^D2^^

^^D3^^

There were several explanations for that.

Or...

Or...

My money is on the last one.

^^D4^^

If true I bet that scared the holy shit out of her.

^^D5^^


That's the problem with three-wheeled vehicles with the single wheel in the front.

^^D6^^

Does that make sense to anyone?

^^D7^^

I wonder what she did with it.

^^D8^^

Please help me understand that.

^^D9^^

This stupid but lucky lady missed the memo.

^^D10^^

Our ultimate goal is to make as many people as possible sad when we die.

When you wake up from a violent encounter in your dream you got knocked conscious.

GET LEARNT


The “Rule of 70”. Want to know how long it will take an investment to double? Divide the interest rate into 70.

You are getting a 7% return? 70/7 = 10 years to double your money.
You are getting a 10% return? 70/10 = 7 years to double your money.

The same works for population growth. If your town has a 7% growth rate then you are going to need twice as many schools, utilities, etc in ten years.

^^E1^^

If you have some fruits that aren't quite ripe yet, place them in a bag and put a banana in with them. The ripening banana will release a gas that speeds up the ripening process of other fruits.

^^E2^^

The brain has little “pathways” that information and dopamine and everything move along. These can form new connections when confronted with novel stimuli but will reinforce existing connections if the environment is stagnant. In other words, doing things you’ve never done before will prompt your brain to increase the number of pathways inside it, which may help you to develop a new outlook on life or even become more creative.

^^E3^^

You can use the bottom of a coffee mug to put the edge back on a dull kitchen knife. The unglazed ceramic ring is harder than metal and acts as a sharpening stone.

Just run the knife over it at a 15 to 20-degree angle about 10 times on each side and try slicing that tomato again.

^^E4^^

Control + shift + T re-opens the last browser tab you closed.

^^E5^^

When calculating percentages, the factors are interchangeable. This means that 50% of 14 is the same as 14% of 50, which can make it quite a lot easier to calculate in your head sometimes.

^^E6^^

Don’t eat the end pieces (the heel) of a loaf of bread until the very last. They keep in the moisture, and your loaf lasts longer and tastes better.

^^E7^^

Or more accurately...





^^E8^^

^^E9^^

Dear Everybody, PLEASE give me an item number when you comment on something in my blog. I AM NOT going to comb through a blog searching for what you intended. Thank you.

E8; Golf courses are a waste of space? Well, so are football grounds, baseball pitches, and even gardens. The greens, being power mad, like arguments like this because they can successfully condemn any activity they morally disapprove of...

B1: Yeah, like “illegal alien”. Or “stolen election” unless of course your Stacey Abrams.

D6: And a ridiculously height center of gravity.

E9: “Just the facts ma’am” More unarmed whites are killed by cops that unarmed blacks and latinos. Every once and awhile you should honor the truth. Every once and awhile you should honor the truth.

Ralph Henry said...

Dear E9 Insulting Motherfucker, The truth is in the percentages. If you are only 20% of the country you would expect to be killed by cops 20% of the time. That is not the case. Go away. Nobody has time for your racist bullshit.

"Dear E9 Insulting Motherfucker, The truth is in the percentages."

If you're only 20% of the country you would expect to commit only 20% of the crime but that is not the case. If you're more involved in crime then you can also expect to have more interaction with the police. I know this is an inconvenient fact to swallow and will probably labeled as racist but you are welcome to reference the DoJ crime statistics.

Mike Harris, as are public parks, botanical gardens etc. Don't mind Ralph he gets a bee in his bonnet now and again, he probably just doesn't like golf therefore it's a fair target.

Ralph Henry said...

Dear Everybody, I think anything that gets older people off the couch is a good thing - including golf. I read the article about their decline and water usage, found it interesting, and decided to share it with you. No huge statement, no condemnation. I just thought you would find it interesting also.
Don't read too much into the information I share with you. Read it, think about it, and accepted or reject it - I DON'T CARE! You DO NOT have to let me know every time I share something with which you disagree because I don't care.

You cared enough to comment on the comment. Do you only want comments that agree with you?

After you installed a gov friendly to you. You've overthrown legitimately elected governments before because they did not dance to your tune and left a fscking mess behind. And you guys don't understand how things like 9/11 can happen.

Ralph Henry said...

Dear A1 Anon, So, you think we have installed governments in Afghanistan and Iraq that are friendly to us? How about Vietnam? Panama? Help me out here because I don't understand.
