Now a mash-up of MST3K’s fave target & the Avengers
If you don’t get it right away, it’s OK, few people are genuine “Misties” (diehards of MST3K). What you’re seeing is Thanos: The Hands of Fate, a synthesis of the Marvel villain Thanos from the hit movies Infinity War and Endgame and a favorite … Continue reading
Me as James Lipton & Pikachu
When we went to see Rock and Rule (more on it later), the Alamo showing it also had the new, awful-looking, live-action Pokémon movie with Will Smith’s untalented kid. In the lobby they had those chairs and a large Pikachu so I cajoled … Continue reading
Funny packaging (May 2019)
Somebody at work has this fake box on display. I know where to get more but I’m not telling (and it’s not The Onion) because I have ideas to package good gifts in them.
Two jokes below, one in the sign and one I thought of
Conan’s Pizza rocks, along with a couple other locals, but this place has a sense of humor as you may see in the sign. Give up on the first one? The italicized text works if you sing along to the … Continue reading
Nixon’s head’s favorite candy!
I had to buy this when I spotted it at Terra Toys and gave it to a co-worker who I share an inside joke with, imitating Billy West imitating Tricky Dick. Saying this candy’s name exaggerates the fifth-worst president’s jowly … Continue reading
Extra perk from Arby’s!
After a long day of getting back into the groove of work (thank you vaccines! I’ll take your side effects over the ignorance morons are causing from withholding), I chose to get a treat from Arby’s. It may be the … Continue reading
My new Hello Kitty Chucks
Somara gave me the green light to buy these limited edition Chucks from Converse.com as a birthday present to myself. I should’ve acted faster since my size (US 11 Men) were already gone when I bought them; I can handle … Continue reading
A Hawaiian shirt for my feet!
To celebrate the end of two debts in our lives, I went to the Converse Store at the Round Rock Outlet Mall (or whatever it’s called) to see if I could find something spectacular. Yes! I was thrilled to find … Continue reading
A demo of Nick’s work with the lens I bought him
The big-ticket item my nephew Nick wanted was a special lens for his camera(s). Thanks to the helpful staff at Precision Camera in Austin, I bought him what he wanted despite it being used. I was willing to get him … Continue reading
Texas vulture/buzzard sighting
You usually spot them on the road, eating the roadkill. Not sure why this vulture or buzzard is hanging out way up there. It’s unlikely a dead squirrel could be found between two business offices. Still pretty cool to see … Continue reading
Drainage Monster!
Spotted this pair of googly eyes while leaving my doctor’s office by accident. I normally don’t stop at the entryway but I think I had to double check something on my phone, the outcome would’ve determined if I ran back … Continue reading
An open pitch to “Weird Al” Yankovic
Saw this at Walgreens, took a picture because Christianity, and especially the holy rollers of Texas, does some goofy crap to celebrate their Sky Cake agenda. Meanwhile, I think could lead to a song for “Weird Al,” Luke Ski or … Continue reading
Dutch potato chips’ flavor
Been a while since I shared one of these I have lifted from my friends the Derrs. So just what the hell is “Classic Burger” flavor when it comes to potato chips? I’m guessing it’s plain-jane potato (with salt) since … Continue reading
Dutch Doritos’ flavor
Makes me worry what they call our “regular” flavor and is there an “uncool” American flavor like “Ugly American”…it’s loud, boorish and smells like Fake News!
My niece Anna rocking out!
I received a couple pictures of my niece Anna rocking out in the garage. She’s showing off the electric guitar Somara and I bought her for Christmas/Birthday. It’s a good starter, a Squier which I think is Fender’s entry-level brand … Continue reading
