I Have To Say That I Agree

HA HA

 

Back To The Terminator

True

 

Satire Site

The satire site that fooled me was able to do so because they are hewing close to the truth with regards to the attitudes and expressions of the local politicians they are satirizing.

They've another one about how the people of St Pete are demanding high-rise apartments on the water, green spaces, elimination of car access, blah blah blah with an interview of a "local person" who says they just want to be able to afford their rent.

This is because St Pete has been tone deaf over the issues of housing and traffic.

The best satire always has a kernel of truth to it! 

What Do YOU Mean You People

Speaking of exonyms and ethnicity.

Did you know that Italians were once not considered to be White?

Italian immigrants in America faced discrimination at least as severe as anything Blacks endured or are enduring.

I hereby claim my eternal victim status!

Or not.

The Irish went through this discrimination thing too.

At least twice and sometimes from the previous wave of Irish-Americans.

But since my grand-parents were not considered "White" when they arrived in America, then I am a person of color now!

Ah, to be rid of that pesky White Privilege!

Shhhhhhhh

 

Missed Opportunity

Babylon Bee is sleeping at the switch.

They should have had a headline, "Trump, taking inspiration from Mars Attacks 'addresses Congress'."

Area woman says, "he killed Congress!"

Film at 11. 

110 Years

110 years ago at The Somme, the tank made it's combat premier!

Seconds later, a tanker asks a crunchie an infantryman to hand them something they'd dropped to the ground because "death before dismount!" 

Now That We Calculated If We Can Kill A Bear

 

The Curriculum Was Thorough

I am going to make a character who's a graduate of a fencing academy.

He knows how to wield a sword, wall in a backyard and sell stolen goods.

Also Today

Cinco de Mosin!

May The Fourth Be With You

Because today is May the Fourth Be With You and tomorrow is Cinco De Mayo...

I give you Obi Juan Kenobi!

Kinda Want

I am not now, nor have I ever been, a member of Special Forces.

But I know what The People's Republic of Pineland is...

Linky.

I Need Credentials

I am thinking that being a corrective phrenologist (<--spell checker knew this word!) would suit me to the bone.

They say do something you love and you will never work a day in your life.

I don't see it listed in any college catalogs though.

h/t FuzzyGeff for the career name.

There Goes My Vacation Plan

Nepal is poised to pass legislation putting some experience requirements up before someone can tackle Mount Everest.

Apparently, the place is overrun with people who want to climb the mountain, regardless of whether they are able to make it to the top.

The crowds have kept people from making the summit who otherwise would have made it...  easily?  Handily?  I don't know the correct adverb here.

This is news that doesn't affect me a whit.

Despite the lack of crowds, I don't think I can summit Florida's highest peak.

Britton Hill is a lofty 105m above mean sea level and nearly 50 feet from the base camp (the parking lot).

Someday!  Someday...

We've begun making a list of the pharmaceuticals ads and going to ask our doctors if each and every one is "right for me."

Should be fun.

Ewwww But...

So, you've found yourself face down and drowning in an unflushed toilet.

Whomever is drowning you, pulls the handle and flushes the toilet.

Well, at least you're going to drown in clean water after catching a breath...

Then you feel the hot sensation of piss on the back of your head.

Nope.  Today is NOT your day.
