I’m still surprised that no suicide bomber has targeted the lines at the screening checkpoints in airports.

I don’t know what hidden security exists that could catch them before they get to that point, but it seems like it would be an irresistible target.

Personally, as a guy, I think him just questioning it is enough for you to have rejected him.

The only appropriate response to being told to use a condom is, “Of course I’m going to use a condom.”

Molokai

The true story of the nineteenth century priest who volunteered to go to the island of Molokai, to console and care for the lepers.

Not Noah Wyle, although I agree that picture looks like him.

Pete Hegseth is a TERRIBLE advertisement for writing public speeches with AI.

What if you say, “JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!” a lot? Does that count?

Edit: Wait. I just remembered. I’m not rich.

The moon landing was faked, but they hired Stanley Kubrick to direct the shoot, and he insisted that they film on location.

If Russia could stop the US from striking Iran, you’d think they’d stop Ukraine from striking Russia.

I didn’t see either of these mentioned:

Farscape

The Orville

Ooo, I’ve got one!

Last Saturday, I was knocked off my feet with a stomach virus.

Because the meds slow down your digestion, it was difficult to, um, expel the illness in the usual, fast manner. I started feeling slightly better on Wednesday, but the issue wasn’t really resolved until Friday morning.

I don’t have a flagpole. I want to put one in, but my wife objects.

The reason she objects is because she thinks it will make us a target.

I want to fly a pride flag under the American flag. The point being that the American flag stands for all Americans, not just the Americans who agree with the current regime.

I’d probably change the lower flag from time to time, depending on events, time of year, or my mood.

Where is here? Are you taking about terrorist cells?

Who fighting who?

Yeah, the week is looking better. Had a couple scrambled eggs this morning for breakfast and a baked potato for lunch.

If it all goes well, I can be back to eating the unhealthy crap I usually eat tomorrow 😁

Well. I got sick on Saturday. Stomach bug.

The best thing that’s happened to me this week is I was able to eat a few saltines last night.

Am I the only person who puts glasses in the cabinet upside down?

Also: left side, but flipped.

I considered making a “Meet the Parents” reference, but I’m not happy with what I’ve come up with.

Well, what the hell.

“I have nuts, Greg. Can you milk me?”

For me personally, I wish Latin had been an option for me, as it’s used extensively in biology and it would have been incredibly helpful.

My wife and I studied Latin in middle school and high school.

My kids were also able to take Latin in school.

Rather than list all the benefits of learning Latin, I found this, Top 10 Reasons For Studying Latin, which says it better than I could.

I would struggle to translate anything today (although I still know that all of Gaul is divided into three parts), but I know I have benefited from an improved understanding of English grammar and vocabulary.

Fight for Latin in your schools!

Then in the US, where the one decent thing to come out of the revolution was licking out the monarchy, you’ve got a while crop of traitorous morons trying to establish one here.

I was always disgusted by the way my fellow citizens seemed to crave a monarchy. I see now that they were just waiting for a person vile enough to qualify.

You can say that if you wish, but it makes you sound like you just don’t want to admit you were wrong.

There’s plenty to blame the U.S. for, but it’s important to be honest if you want to be taken seriously.

That’s what I was thinking.
