Special Chucks to celebrate my graduation! MU30, Part 1
Current events and exhaustion kept this mini-gallery from being posted along with its companion piece reminiscing about how it was merely 30 years ago I graduated from university. I stupidly missed the one-day Black Friday offer on the site so … Continue reading
This explains Tuberville’s election
Long ago, The Daily Show had a very good example when it recorded a gathering of typical residents who seemed to think college football was more important than fixing their education issues. This photo is another reason why America should consider expelling … Continue reading
This LEGO joke didn’t take long
LEGO pieces are so simplified in order to make customized things, aka known as MOCs, so the majority of the pieces in this gag are feasible, even the guns. I would only buy this set if all its profits went … Continue reading
Must be serious if I got Jennifer Converse shoes!
Scored these for Jennifer at the Journey’s in San Antonio. Since they have unicorns and other brightly colored creatures, there was no way she could refuse me. Besides, it was only fair as I have to wear cowboy boots from … Continue reading
Not cold enough here for these, thankfully
I thought it was funny because Austin still has pockets of agriculture that aren’t far away from the city limits. Given all the cattle farming or is “ranching” a verb? Whatever, due to cows, seeing these bales rolled up in … Continue reading
May 2020 be the end of Reaganism and Rand’s rantings
I also wanted to post this because I have a friend whose daughter was assigned The Fountainhead at her school for English class. Like any thinking person who isn’t a greedy sociopath named Mark Cuban or Rand Paul, my reaction was “What? … Continue reading
My main gifts from Jennifer
Pretty spiffy! One of the nicest shirts I’ve ever received and I can dress up in style like Joe Bob Briggs! However, I cannot be but a tad worried that Jennifer is trying to countrify me. I am a Yankee … Continue reading
To remind KKKristians regarding the season
They’re the first to whine and bitch about the secularism that isn’t really happening since even I am fine with Merry Christmas. I do throw in the New Year. With people I know, I add Festivus, Solstice, Hanukkah and Kwanza. … Continue reading
Favorite fiction v. Philosophy
How about some examples? In the fiction department I would go with Alan Dean Foster, Octavia Butler, Michael Moorcock, Douglas Coupland and James Ellroy (he would be a bumpy journey). In the latter? There is fiction: Frank Herbert (Dune has … Continue reading
Our current…eternal struggle as 2020 ends
Let’s hope that 2020 wins for a change on this contest based upon a really stupid Stallone movie from the Eighties.
Can’t get more Eighties than this
I will give Mrs. Lauper credit her outfit not being an eyesore like Mr. Herman’s.
Holiday greetings from the South Pole!
Oddly, when I sent those guys at the Antarctica Research Center, their card never arrived according to USPS. Maybe I’ll have better luck next year.
Crappy gift of 2020 #2 (probably mid Eighties)
OK, to be fair, this isn’t truly crappy. I could just see this being given to a male child from a grandmother or aunt. “Billy, you said you really like the Muppets and you wanted a Big Wheel so I … Continue reading
My first stocking in forever
Jennifer is obviously more into this holiday than I ever could be, other than sending out funny cards and giving gifts. She insisted on me having a stocking for the little odds/ends gifts so I chose a Star Wars theme because … Continue reading
Crappy 2020 summed up, December 2020 addendum
The diver approaches the board’s end (January and February), begins to slip (March) and falling in is the remainder of the year. Since I met Jennifer, it’s the only reason why the pool has water. What we don’t hope follows … Continue reading
