Outstanding.

..... what a wonderful world.

I don't know if this goes here or in the beautifully sad thread. Probably the latter but I'm already here.
There's a picture in our spare bedroom. Photo on canvas of kayaks on a lake. On the back it says "My love, every journey we take will start together. I love you, (signed woman's name). " And dated about 2 years ago. My wife just got it at the Goodwill for $2.49. Always doesn't last as long as it used to. The room it's in is where our son and his wife to be will be staying when they're out here in August to get married (we hope). I think I'll take the picture down while theyre here, for luck.

That’s beautifully sad.

Heard from an unemployed young woman on the evening news--"$600 is an amount of money that rich people think is a lot of money for poor people." Amusing, and very, very sad.

Somebody practicing take offs and landings on Donner Lake in a float plane. Seems odd for some reason.

Thanks. That made me smile.

[El Chupacabra]

Divynls approved.

Yes, Elf. Yesterday afternoon I went out with grasses & hay to feed some goats. Instead of 3, there, in addition, was a tiny set of legs and wagging tail about 8" off the ground, a small baby for sure. No idea one of the females had been impregnated but there it was. Name....Elf of course.

My wife got me a bidet and a poop stool for X-Mas. Apparently she is sick of my shit (har har). If she added raisin bran and bathroom spray to my presents it would be the 'you are officially an old man' kit.

what exactly is a poop stool? and isn't that like saying piss urine?

Ha. I suppose that's why they call it an ottoman instead of a stool: https://hellotushy.com/products/tush...n-toilet-stool

makes total sense now. that's true love, yo.

when you drop a monster you can call it the ottoman empire.

that, and check out raw psyllium husk.

There's gotta be a better way to blow up a balloon

I've been cooking for over 30 years and a chef buddy dropped this concept on me like a bomb yesterday. I had no idea.

Fucking straight up schooled me. That was amusing.

[~mikey b]

I don’t understand

what’s the big concept here?

[MakersTeleMark]

Hoisin and citrus? With lamb? WTF?

[~mikey b]

sounds good to me

I had lamb with mango chutney last night

yum

[Choss Jonger, Sr.]

Some people need guides. Others less so. ‘Sokay.

Butt that balloon trick though...there’s just some things a man cannot do for nor teach himself to do.

[old goat]

I like my lamb marinated in a little olive oil, lemon juice, some garlic and herbs, grilled. No sauce or dip. As far as goat--better PM me.

Amusing: My dog understands what I mean when I flip her the bird. As in, she's sneaking into the corner of the kitchen looking for some kind of chicken castoffs, and I think "fuck that shit" and so I flip her off. And it works, dog slinks off back to her bed, but most importantly, gives me the evil eye for the next 5min, obviously thinking fuck you too noonan. Such a smart dog. She does get the chicken fat eventually, as you would expect.

Ha, awesome! I give my wife's dog the finger daily and I would love the satisfaction of it recognizing the meaning of it all.

But yeah, I do spoil him. Eventually.

Also amusing, my wife giving me advice on how to fix the plumbing, but all of it couched in how plumbing would work if it were all hooked up the way it is in her head, i.e. there is like this magic portal between a certain appliance and say, a drain line, where physics are suspended and you "just tighten it" to make everything work properly. Good times
