I concede and withdraw my prior point.

Look at this guy, calling bullshit on Fleetwood Mac

I love that it generated the name "Juano." That seems like a special kind of racist.

Doctor or The Great Physician?

Reminds me of one of my favorite ways to eat vanilla ice cream: with olive oil and a bit of sea salt. I get a lot of grief for this, but I learned about it ages ago in an old Cracked (.com) article and it is really good.

Roman children yearned for them.

I always smother those IKEA meatballs in lingonberry jam. Delicious.

Also, I've heard of Lakota dishes that involve bison steaks drizzled with a blueberry reduction or compote. I've always wanted to try that.

One of my former co-workers (a science teacher) once told me of a "game" he and his friends "played" when they were growing up in the 1970s. It involved drawing a circle on the ground about the circumference of holding your arms out, then taking a bow and arrow, aiming it straight up, releasing said arrow, and standing still. If you crouched or left the circle, you lost.

Pretty sure he told me that at least one kid wound up with an arrow through the foot.

I grew up in the 'hood. Many years back, coming home from work, I drove through the Popeyes for dinner. At the speaker to order and tell them I want “two breasts and a thigh.”


“I bet you do, honey!” says the female voice through the speaker. Absolute gold.

This. But also a degree of expedience played a role too. Rome had twisted Judea (and, eventually, Galilee) to such a degree that the temple leadership was willing to let Rome crucify a guy like Jesus because it kept Rome from taking more. People like Pilate were looking for excuses to bring the hammer down on the citizens of Judea. Passover was often a flashpoint for insurrection (a bunch of oppressed people huddled together, all brought together by the unifying story of that time their God raised up a dude to lead them against their first oppressor--the festival was primed for any number of would-be "messiahs" to rise up and eventually try something against Rome, which led to intense crack-downs and, at times, mass crucifixions). So Rome backed the cultural and religious authorities into a corner, turning them into the sort of people who'd gladly hold sham trials to get rid of a guy who might bring more trouble down on their heads.

Also lots of “well, you’re animal isn’t really pure enough. But you’re in luck because we happen to have a few High Priest Certified^tm^ animals right over here. We’ll just take yours on trade and you can pay the difference!” (then resell the perfectly good sacrificial animal to the next poor pilgrim who comes along)

One of the few things that winds up being included in all four gospels.

Maybe the AdBlockers are being pushed by those doctors who don’t want us to know that one trick they hate?

or white cotton shirt and trousers that make you look somewhere between wannabe boyband member and British pink-skinned colonist on a gap year



This made me lol

I heard he also microwaved fish the other day.

The raptor. From the Jurassic World series.

Also the hit comedy Small Wonder that ran from 1985-1989?


I HATED that show.

Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling

Once went to a pharmacy because apparently one of my kids had pinworms. Which means we all had to take the medicine. Anyway, my wife and I figure that we should all take it the next day (can’t remember the precise reasons, but it had to do with the fact that you have to take a second dose like two weeks later). This determination is made at night, so I have to drive up to the store to pick it up. I have four kids, so we needed to get two boxes of the stuff.


I don’t think much about it until I approach the register area and I swear that management decided to schedule the best looking people to work that particular night shift. Everyone was hot. And here I am, like 10 o’clock at night, holding two boxes of butt worm medicine, suggesting that there’s so pressing a need for this product that I had to get it right away…

Real June Cleaver “Pardon me, I speak jive” energy coming from this post lol (I mean this as a compliment)

Girl I crushed on many years back actually did this. She would take lemon slices and peel the skin off and eat them like they were oranges.

Here in Hawai'i, we shoes off. I grew up in Florida where wearing shoes inside was normal. Now, after living in a shoes off culture, I'm sensitive to it. Like I get bothered when I see people on TV with shoes on and putting their feet up on things. Outside is nasty and you're putting that nastiness on your coffee table?!
