Having grown up a boomer, of course I think kids today have it too easy. We had to wash the dishes - by hand - at least twice a day. We had to mow the lawn - front and rear - at least once a month in the summer. We had to hang out laundry - sometimes even in winter. We shoveled snow, raked leaves, babysat our siblings and cleaned and washed the old man's car after church on Sundays. Walked four miles uphill both ways in a blizzard barefoot to school every day. Kids today? They'd call DYFS (Dept. of youth and family services for those of you in California) if they had to do any of the shit we did growing up. Juss' sayin'...

That's subtle. I like subtle sometimes...
I mentioned this last night, but I'm kinda embarassed that I couldn't have thought of that headline myself. Maybe that's why I reference the Post as often as I do.. Their editorial writers are brilliant.

Can you use the words 'functional' and 'government' in a sentence? 'Cause these motherfuckers on the other side of the aisle sure as fuck can't. This isn't trench warfare on their part - it's more like the Maginot line - a stupid, expensive idea that's bound for failure and disgrace. ...

Former Vice President Kamala Harris hinted at a possible presidential run in 2028 and claimed that some people said she was "the most qualified candidate ever to run for president" during an on-stage interview with journalist Kara Swisher.
This is a real quote from Kamala Harris, though it could easily be mistaken for a line from a Saturday Night Live parody. She delivered it with total earnestness at the Warner Theatre in Washington, D.C., last Thursday night. The crowd replied with boisterous cheers rather than howls of laughter.

I don't quite get this one - do you? ...
I don't know what's worse. This is that scumbag who killed that Ukranian girl on the train. Look at how calmly he walks away after getting off the train. That kinda shows ya what a fucked up psychopath the guy is, but what bothers me about this is that someone - no idea who - found this video clip from the surveilance cameras at the train station and released it to the press. Why the fuck would someone wanna do that? Just so we can talk about it here? Not a good enough reason. Save that shit for his trial - we didn't need to see this. ...
Nothing like a nice hot stew to warm you up... ...
I really don't know if I miss 'em or not. Babs still goes when they have 'free movie night' for the geriatrics around The Villages, but I think it would hurt my brain to pay $ 14.00 - or more - just to watch a movie and a coupla ads. The last time I was in a movie theater was when I went to a rainy Saturday afternoon $ 2.50 matinee in Ft. Lauderdale to see 'Analyze this' with Billy Chrystal and that leftie jerkoff. Believe it or not, that was in the last century. 1999.

ReplyDeleteLast movie I watched in an actual moviehouse theater was CLOSE ENCOUNTERS when it first came out, and it was on a military base in the Philippines, so it was free.

ReplyDeleteIt's worse than you think; it was the last millennium.
The real question is why anyone let him get off the train at all, and why he wasn't beaten half to death for what he did before the train stopped moving.....
ReplyDeleteGiven that the broken crown has Trump's name beneath the seal, I presume the cartoonist is stating that Trump is a monarch whose power will be broken by the "No Kings" protests.
ReplyDeleteI like being able to fix my own snacks, change the bass and treble as needed, engage CC when asshat actors are whispering during too much noise, use my own darned bathroom and being able to pause the damned movie and even rewind it to catch something I may have missed.
ReplyDeleteHate movie theaters. My 'in-house theater' is much more comfortable.
