Things to Come – Week of July 22

Yeah. Here on Glibs. It’ll be great…

That was quite a week on Glibs. Looks like our cryptids have things sorted out…for now. You never know what they are going to get themselves into next. I wanted to second OMWC’s thanks to all of you. I know you are often on the end of the narrowed gazes, and occasional chiding from me – but lots of you have been very nice, and have even tried to help with what you can. Good on ya.

With that all said, here is our preview of the week to come.

Monday – Animal tells us of another shitlord. Later, Tulip asks a question.

Tuesday – Leon does his own look into the Future. That Mexican Sharpshooter feller has a few questions for us.

Wednesday – Begin to focus your chi….for it appears that you will need all your strength to survive a SugarFree TWO POST DAY!!!Ā  MUHUHUHUWAHA!

Thursday – TBD for the morning. Later on, blackjack goes to the park.

Friday – You get to hear What We Are Reading. Someone in the cryptid rotation will pop in.

Weekend – OMWC, Not Adahn, Mexican Sharpshooter and a cast of thousands! OK, not thousands. But you will be entertained and informed!

I would also like to thank our contributors – you make this site more than it would be otherwise. I would encourage the rest of you to follow their good example!

 

The comments section is open. Have at it.

      26. 22 will rip your dick off with her teeth, spit it in your face and laugh, as she turns and walks away while you’re writhing in pain on the ground.

        Kinda like the movie “the Package?”

        1. Spudalicious

          Only with the painful infection that comes from a human bite.

    First?

    1. DenverJ

      Damnit!

      1. Sir Digby (PBUH)

        Well, it’s still kinda funny.

  2. SP

    I’d also like to give a shout out to Swiss, Banjos, Brett L, Spud, OMWC (and the pinch hitters) who take on link duty day in and day out.

    1. Count Potato

        +1 more than Count

    2. blackjack

      Plus, thank you. This site is a somewhat underappreciated blessing to us. Thanks to all of you.

      1. MikeS

        SP is the glue that holds us all together.

    3. Dang it…forgot the weekday linkers!

      1. MikeS

        Ask for an edit fairy!

        1. But when you ask, you get the scary ones.

          1. MikeS

            shhhh!

          2. DEG

            Not the Edit Fairy you want, but the Edit Fairy you deserve.

      2. Spudalicious

        No worries, Swiss. I took it personal.

    4. Not Adahn

      Yeah, I could never so a link post without simple copying from someone else — a good links post relies on being ahead of the curve. Which I ain’t.

  3. Gustave Lytton

    Later, Tulip asks a question.

    A. FINISH HIM!

    1. Sean

      Phrasing?

      1. Tres Cool

        pics or it never happened

    1. Having salaried campaign workers only works when you can crank up their hours to get a discount.

  4. DEG

    Begin to focus your chi….for it appears that you will need all your strength to survive a SugarFree TWO POST DAY!!! MUHUHUHUWAHA!

    So, it will be a good day?

    1. “It is a good day to die!”

  5. Tres Cool

    2 nice hand-trimmed ribeyes, and both weather.gov and the local news said “rain after 8 pm”.
    Know how to make it rain at 6 o’clock? Let me light the grill…

    1. juris imprudent

      You ain’t made of sugar, get your ass out there and grill man!

      1. Not Adahn

        The Native Americans were able to cook over fire in the rain, and they couldn’t even invent the goddamned wheel!

        1. Tres Cool

          Oh, it got done. Mine seared on either side and rare to the point it could still be grazing. Jugsy’s……*ugh*……WELL.
          Paula Deen creamed spinach, and (for her) mac y queso.

          1. Gustave Lytton

            So spinach in butter?

          2. LJW

            * Spinach in butter with racism.

          3. Spudalicious

            You need the racism for complexity in the dish.

        2. DenverJ

          “The Native Americans were able to cook over fire in the rain, and they couldn’t even invent the goddamned wheel!”
          They invented the wheel, you racist, there just wasn’t anything to do with it because there weren’t any roadz.

          1. Akira

            I actually did read in that book 1491 that there is evidence of Native Americans inventing wheels, but it was only used on children’s pull-toys.

    2. Rhywun

      Look at you and your weather privilege. Still 95 here. I wouldn’t light a grill even if I had one.

      1. Not Adahn

        Did I ever mention how much I love my house built with modern materials and techniques? A/C isn’t running, 72 inside.

        1. Rhywun

          Did I ever tell you to GFY?

          Shit, I need a Snickers.

          1. Not Adahn

            Seriously though, something amazing happened around the turn of the century and everything built since then is just utterly better insulated than before. My parents had a house built in Houston in 1991 and another built in 2005 and there is just no comparison between the two.

          2. Rhywun

            My place was built in 1955 – and not the cool “mid-century” 1955 either. It’s like the worst of all worlds – design, construction, etc.

          3. My guess is 2×6 framing for exterior walls became the norm and spray foam insulation, also and most importantly many municipalities adopted international building codes for energy conservation, top men for the win!!

          4. Not Adahn

            First: I am sincerely glad you chimed in here.

            Second: Do you think that it was a code that made the changes happen, or would the market have supported the changes? I know that there will always be a place for the cheapest house possible, but I also remember a thriving market for post-build radiant barrier installations. My parent’s second TX house had one during the initial build. I don’t now if it was mandated by code or an option they could buy (like I opted for the HRV system on my house).

          5. Crusty Juggler

            I too trust the government to keep me warm.

            Fauxbertarian alert!!!

          6. Its a weaselly answer but.. A little of both, technology and market demand would have increased efficiency eventually, the government forcing it on us probably sped it up, but at what cost? did fewer people build/renovate because of the added costs, do people just build to the code instead of really looking at a cost benefit analysis that may have them building beyond the code? it’s probably a different result for every area/home owner/builder. It’s a toss up, but as a true libertarian I say let the market decide even if the codes would have been 100% effective.

          7. Not Adahn

            Just from my perspective:

            The reason I had a house built is because I was so impressed by my parent’s “new” one. Especially in comparison to the existing housing stock here. My little rental P.O.S. was spending more in utilities than my parents were — and they lived in goddamned Houston.

            Now, architecturally, my house is primitive compared to my folk’s but it works for me (if not optimally). And of course it’s triple what they paid in $/sqft. But honestly, I didn’t really consider any old housing stock. ESPECIALLY after I lost a few grand in leather goods from mold which is apparently a known issue with living up here.

            Inspecting my few remaining pieces indicates that my current insulation levels removes the offending spores.

          8. Crusty Juggler

            Check out these two regulation loving rubes.

            I am the One Troo, and I am here to speak the libertarian (small l) Trooth!

            Wait, wait, wait…………..Is that THE Crusty Juggler I see posting?

            What the hell, guys?!? When did he show up?

            When did you show up, CJ? How da hell you doin’??

          10. Sir Digby (PBUH)

            Shit, I need a Snickers.

      2. LJW

        We just finished our heat wave. Low 80s this week.

      3. Spudalicious

        96 here. And we’re headed to 100 for the next couple of days. There’s no way I’m NOT going to be grilling, so I don’t have to heat up the kitchen.

        Inside, it’s currently a very habitable 75.

        1. Sean

          Our middle floor is at 73, and the top and bottom are a bit cooler.

          The ac has been working overtime today to keep up. It should hit its goal of 71 shortly, with the sun setting.

        2. westernsloper

          Amen to that. I try to do all my cooking outside in the summer. I think we hit 102 today and I was smoking and grilling all afternoon. I don’t run AC and the house gets way to hot if I cook inside.

        3. Rhywun

          Low humidity privilege šŸ˜›

          1. Spudalicious

            Currently 15%. Three days in South Carolina in June swore me off the south.

        4. blackjack

          low 90s in the Valley, but it cools off at night. It’s probably chilly at the airport.

        5. Crusty Juggler

          75 with a guarentee of hot beefcake sausage, if you know what I mean.

          1. Spudalicious

            You’re going to get pegged by a 75 year old?

          2. Crusty Juggler

            I don’t have that kind of money.

      4. MikeS

        72F; 34% here. just sayin’

    No meth gator articles ??

    ?

    1. Did it fall out of the gator’s ass after it got shot in the nuts?

      1. ….while being thrown through a drive thru window at a Jack-in-the-Box.

      2. Tres Cool

        That’s an article someone should post.

  7. Gustave Lytton

    For All Mankind is an excellent movie. Brian Eno’s music is just perfect for the visuals.

    1. Not Adahn

      Brian Eno’s music is just perfect

      This is the first time this phrase has ever been uttered.

      1. Gustave Lytton

        I felt strange writing it but it passed.

      2. Crusty Juggler

        Well, the first time it has been uttered outside of an 80s-era bathhouse.

        (because it’s gay and probably has AIDS).

    2. The Bearded Hobbit

      For All Mankind is an excellent movie

      As a Certified Geek ™ I totally agree. Saw it again last week in the run-up to the 50th. Splendid.

  8. westernsloper

    I have never been big on grilling sauces and have always just been a naked rubbed meat sort of guy but I did some marinated chicken thighs last week which I thought needed some saucing up. I didn’t have sauce of any sort so mixed ketchup, Zatarans liquid crab boil, and honey for a sauce. It is tasty stuff. (H/T Suthen for the crab boil which I assume he puts on his oatmeal)

    1. Not Adahn

      Do they even have oatmeal in LA, or do they have some sort of rice cereal thing?

      1. westernsloper

        Rice grits?

        1. Not Adahn

          The Chinese equivalent of oatmeal is congee. Fun fact: Nobody likes congee. When my workplace had congee available, all the Chinese expats bought oatmeal instead.

          And then they discovered tater tots and corned beef hash and decided America was the best country in the world.

          1. Rhywun

            My Chinese ex made congee all the time. For himself.

          2. Not Adahn

            The fact that he’s your ex proves he’s defective.

          3. Rhywun

            Or, that he got visa’ed out and had to return to Malaysia.

          4. Gustave Lytton

            Malaysia Chinese are hot, at least the women are.

          5. Not Adahn

            Huh.

            I’m on better terms than I would like to be with a Han Malaysian.

            Still, the fact that he let a mere federal government send him back away from you proves he’s defective.

          6. BakedPenguin

            “My Chinese ex made congee all the time. For himself.”

            Because he was selfish, or because you didn’t want any?

          7. Rhywun

            The latter. The former would not be his nature at all.

          8. Spudalicious

            Congee and Chinese fried bread on a cold, wet winter’s day is an awesome lunch.

          9. Gustave Lytton

            I like congee. I should make it again. I haven’t done that in a while.

        2. MikeS

          Did you say nice tits?

          1. Spudalicious

            I think he said Lice Grits. Very high in protein.

    2. LJW

      Naked rubbed meat… I’ll leave that for someone else to make a wise ass remark.

      1. westernsloper

        Ya, I saw that after I typed it but decided to go with first draft and just let it ride.

    3. a naked rubbed meat sort of guy

      I like to wear a hat, keeps the entire thing a little more formal.

      1. Not Adahn

        A baseball cap isn’t really a hat.

        1. westernsloper

          What about a sombrero?

          1. Not Adahn

            Totally a hat. Don’t believe me? Go poke fun at the headgear of a mariachi playing the bajo sexto and let us know how things work out.

          2. JaimeRoberto: Gentleman, Scholar, French Tickler

            An urban sombrero?

        2. I have a homburg for special occasions.

          1. Not Adahn

            Classy. Also Nazi.

        3. Spudalicious

          I was thinking a fedora. Worn at a jaunty angle.

    4. Suthenboy

      Try some with any vegetable, say green beans and potatoes with a little bacon (by a little I mean a lot) and just a quarter to half of a cap of the liquid boil. I think you will be pleased.

      1. blackjack

        Try any vegetable?

        1. Tres Cool

          And here I was expecting a Karen Quinlan joke. Or at least a James Brady.

      2. westernsloper

        I will try it. I always have it on hand now.

      3. Spudalicious

        Wait, I thought this subthread was about naked meat and hats.

        1. Suthenboy

          You don’t cook naked?

          1. Sean

            Grease splatters.

            No.

          2. Spudalicious

            Not without an apron. I was just fascinated by the variety of hats the Glibertariat prefers with working their meat.

          3. westernsloper

            I was wearing one of these today. Much shade and waterproof so good for the pool.

          4. Spudalicious

            Nice. Perfect hat for working your naked meat outdoors.

          5. I wasn’t working my meat, but I was pulling my trigger.

  9. egould310

    I’m thinking chicken breast, sautĆ©ed in butter, finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon, chopped parsley, chopped olives. Spinach salad with red onion, green onion, artichoke hearts, feta cheese, red wine vinaigrette. Jim Beam on ice with a little splash of Perrier for fizziness.

    1. Sean

      I’ve resigned myself to now needing one of these:

      https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B01LWPCA7E

      That smoked Manhattan was a revelation.

      1. Not Adahn

        The fact that smoked and fermented (rotted) foods are so delicious is proof enough to me that humans are evolved from a scavenger species.

        1. Suthenboy

          Likely true. Pre-tool sapiens had little other source of protein.

          1. blackjack

            Nothing to see here, carrion.

          2. MikeS

            I’d argue, but I don’t want to be accused of being a sour Kraut.

          3. Not Adahn

            something something Pak’ma’rah

          4. You guys took all the good ones and left me in a pickle.

      2. Spudalicious

        You can find one a lot cheaper and just use a mixing bowl as a cover.

      3. Tulip

        Ooh, I bet you could make smoked olives with that

        1. Sean

          And cheeses and nuts and …

        1. Sir Digby (PBUH)

          That…..doesn’t really look like it’s used for food.

    2. Sean

      Also, I’d need more melty cheese on the chicken too. Though I ? cheese.

    3. Crusty Juggler

      Spinach salad with red onion, green onion, artichoke hearts, feta cheese, red wine vinaigrette. Jim Beam on ice with a little splash of Perrier for fizziness.

      What’s he bringing?

      (’cause that’s gay? get it? gay. It’s gay.)

  10. G-d is ejaculating all over my house.

    AKA: massive hailstorm.

    1. G-d is ejaculating all over my house.

      Hawt.

      1. Not Adahn

        Be careful, Godsperm is potent enough to get rocks pregnant.

        1. Sean

          Is that where geodes come from?

          1. Spudalicious

            *golf clap*

    2. westernsloper

      Your neck of the woods gets some gawd awful hailstorms. I got caught in one years ago in the springs. Every car that could not get under protection had a shattered windshield.

      1. The Bearded Hobbit

        I have been in three massive hailstorms, all them in Los Alamos NM.

        About 1957 there was a hailstorm with tennis ball-sized stones. I remember the local paper next edition showing a convertible auto with the roof shredded.

        Around 1993 there was one, not quite as bad, that shattered skylights and hammered cars. This one had golf ball-sized stones.

        The last one was only a few years later and was very similar. The auto body guys set up tents to take on all of the customers.

    3. LJW

      Wait so Jesus may have been the result of a screw up during a hailstorm?

      1. Nah, Mary was hit by a bus…

        1. blackjack

          Taking corners, fast and scary, I got a plastic virgin Mary, riding on the dashboard of my car….

    Thom Hartmann: What Do Democrats Really Want?

    ***
    If Democrats try to run on Friedman’s “moderate” platform, a continuation of Friedman’s “free trade” Clintonism that took over the Party in 1992 and rejected FDR, we’ll get the result we deserve: 4 more years of Trump and his corporatist buddies.

    ***
    Secular organizers started their own congregations. But to succeed, they need to do a better job of imitating religion.

    Beneath the surface were other rifts. Even within the community of nonbelievers were different groups with different priorities: Some ardent atheists wanted to rail against religion, for example, or have heated debates. But at Sunday Assembly, the point wasn’t to put down faith or even to celebrate being faithless, per se—the point of being there was being there, together.

    ***
    The greatest improvements in the lives of poor and working people throughout history have been won by mass movements from below. After decades of capitalist assault on labor unions, regulations, and public goods, the last thing we should do is look to elites as our benefactors.

    Bernie Sanders is right. We need to build a mass movement powerful enough to take on the millionaires and billionaires, so we can take control of socially created wealth and subject it to public, democratic control. Then we can start to solve the problems that the rich can’t.

    Americans rarely talk about climate change with family and friends.

    Tragically, research shows that this climate silence reinforces the dangerously wrong belief that climate change isn’t an existential threat requiring urgent action.

    But a major new study led by Yale researchers finds that just discussing the issue with friends and family leads them to learn more facts about the climate crisis, which in turn leads to greater understanding and concern about the issue.

            Yeah, I know there’s crazy stuff in the Bible. I was raised Mormon and now I’m non-religious.

            There are only three types of people who are afraid to die:

            1) People who believe that Hell exists and they will go there
            2) People that believe their loved ones will suffer with them gone
            3) People who are particularly attached to their conscious existence.

            Young ‘uns typically fall into all of those, but particularly 3.

      Americans rarely talk about climate change with family and friends

      My response to dire warnings is that if AGW is an undeniable fact then we have two choices: we nuke China and India or we nuke China and India.

      Those two countries produce 2/3rds of all greenhouse gases. The US is a far distant third. So we can either sell them nuclear power plants which produce no greenhouse gases or we nuclear-annihilate them, bomb them back to the Stone Age so that they have no industrial capacity. Folks in the US who demand wind/solar and drive electric cars are chipping away at the 1% level.

      1. creech

        What about pollution from all the cooking fires in Africa and South America? Do we have enough nukes to annihilate them too?

        1. The Bearded Hobbit

          Obviously option #1 is superior to option #2.

          I was trying to emphasize the the efforts made by the greenies in the US are microscopic if they really, truly, want to reduce GHG. Oh, yeah, driving a Prius is saving the world. Like 0.00001% of saving the world.

        Global warming alarmism isn’t about climate or the earth at all of course. It is about money and power. Control.

          Global warming alarmism isn’t about climate or the earth at all of course. It is about money and power. Control.

          What I see is mostly a convenient excuse to religiously vote Democrat even if they run absolutely horrible candidates. None of my “progressive” friends or family actually defended Hillary; they usually fell back on “she’s good on climate change though, and saving the planet is more important than anything else.”

          It’s a genius strategy, really. Make up stories about the impending apocalypse, and you can justify voting for an absolute totalitarian.

    “ā€œI’m Not like That, So Am I Gay?ā€ The Use of Queer-Spectrum Identity Labels Among Minor-Attracted People

    Largely based on an erroneous belief that individuals who are preferentially attracted to minors are necessarily sex offenders, queer communities have distanced themselves from this population over the past several decades. There are now those who object to the use of labels such as ā€œgayā€ and ā€œqueerā€ by minor-attracted people (MAPs), raising the question, ā€œto whom do queer-spectrum identity labels belong?ā€ I engage with this question using data from my research with 42 MAPs, exploring their uses of queer-spectrum identity labels and the conflicts they have encountered regarding their use of these terms. I then discuss the potential consequences of accepting the use of these labels by MAPs.”

    Sex On Screen Is Such An Anticlimax For Women. Where Did It All Go Wrong?

    Twenty-seven-year-old design assistant Lotte Morrison takes exception to the very famous sex scene between Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet in Titanic. “If you’re that sweaty, it ain’t romantic,” she says. “Car sex isn’t like that. Leather seats plus sweat = squeaky, slippery and burns. That was the first sex scene I ever saw, at 9 years old – I thought every boy would be that romantic and ‘take me to the stars’. But in reality, if you are shagging in a car, it’s probably not going to be like that.”

    Some of us true real men (ie over six feet) willfully bruised our knees for car sex, lady – be appreciative!

    While heavily stylised scenes can be comical, the gulf between expectation and reality can make women feel inadequate, as Lotte experienced. “Films make the woman being on top the sexual highlight, but I don’t get much out of it. I used to feel bad that I didn’t enjoy it as much as I felt I should. It’s not until I got older that I could accept it doesn’t work for me. We’re all built differently – it doesn’t affect how sexually able or desirable I am.”
    Fashion buyer Daisy Ukoko-Rongione, 27, says the list of unrelatable portrayals of sex is extensive: “Margot Robbie coming out of her bedroom butt naked in The Wolf of Wall Street – surely that would be awkward in real life? Spontaneous sex is unrealistic. I need to plan, make sure I’ve shaved and am wearing acceptable underwear. Period sex never happens in films – that awkward ‘do we put a towel down’ situation.”

    lol @ all of this

    1. Crusty Juggler

      As Caroline acknowledges: “Lots of films and TV shows are made by men who may not consider or understand a feminist portrayal of sex. The more women producers and directors are hired means greater potential for realistic depictions of sex. Our society often focuses on the problems of sex, rarely do we see nonjudgmental conversations about nuanced forms of pleasure. Life is too short for unsatisfactory sex, so let’s start and continue those conversations now.”

      Life is too short of unsatisfactory sex, so we should watch more of it on the telly, right ‘gov?

          1. True story. In high school, my friend stole some porno movies from someone’s dad at a party we went to. He left them at my house so his mom wouldn’t find them. Now I had a few decent videos in my collection, but the ones he stole were awful. So of course, the only porn my mother ever found of mine was Gang Bang Bitches No. 17. I don’t really care that my mother found some of my stash, but that just made me look awful. She had to be so ashamed of me in that moment. Like all good mothers though, it just dissipated and it was never discussed.

            The movie was really unbeatable , in the most literal sense.

          2. The Bearded Hobbit

            Mr. Natural was a character developed by Robert Crumb. He was unbelievably immoral and in one comic was stuck with a giant baby that was built like a full-sized woman. The baby needs something to eat so Mr. Natural offers the only thing that he has; his ejaculate.

            So, my mom is rooting around my comic collection. Guess which comic she discovers.

            We watched it one night just for kicks. It was kind of weird; there was a black dude wearing a Phantom of the Opera mask for some unexplained reason. At one point, he was trying to eat her pussy but the string of the mask kept getting in the way.

        Probably your mom.

        Then she puts them in the freezer to…you know…freeze them. And then she pulls the frozen bananas out of the freezer and selects a good one and rolls a condom (not a regular store-bought condom, a special order only from the internet MySize69mm condom that you can only get in Europe condom) over the banana (because your mom likes her frozen bananas to be really, really really big), and then she lays back on her couch (the couch you sit on when you come over for coffee and zucchini bread, and yes of course it’s zucchini bread), and without even a smidgen of lubricant save for a long, lustful lick of the condomed fruit shaft she slowly moans and inserts the entire Amazon banana into herself again and again and again.

        1. Chipwooder

          Nah, my mother hates bananas and I don’t think I’ve ever seen one in her house. I appreciate the effort, but that one is a 5.5, and even that is generous.

    So of course the future progs want to tax RF-emitting devices (which almost everyone has, and in the future, implanted in their brains) and use the money to fund RF-neutral communications like letters and telegrams. Because it will stimulate the economy- or something…

        HALL SEX – After you’ve been married for many, many years you just pass each other in the hall and say “FUCK YOU”

        COURTROOM SEX – When your wife and her lawyer gang bang you in divorce court.

        2. commodious spittoon

          I just looked up the proving too much fallacy, and that’s not it.

        3. Suthenboy

          That’s the one I meant. My memory sucks. Yeah, proving too much. That’s what this smells like.

  26. RegicidalManiac

    Rest in peace to Grandpa RegicidalManiac, who passed away today, just a week after his 96th birthday.

    He was an incredible man, a generous and kind soul who grew up during the depression, volunteered for the Army Air Force during WWII, flew many missions over Europe as a waist gunner in a B-24, and came back to the US to start a family and open a TV store. He raised 3 kids, and judging from my father, he did so well.

    He liked shepard’s pie (he liked to grate cheddar cheese over the top of it and call it “dad’s delight”), cabernet sauvignon, vodka, swimming, fishing, and flirting with pretty women (including Mrs. RegicidalManiac, who found him endlessly charming). He loved his family, and delighted in doting on his grandchildren.

    The world is diminished by his passing, but I was lucky to know him, and he left the world better than he found it.

      1. RegicidalManiac

        Bless you, Q, and your unending well of pictures of hot, busty women.

    1. Suthenboy

      I am sorry he is gone but glad he lived a long and full life.

    2. Crusty Juggler

      (he liked to grate cheddar cheese over the top of it and call it ā€œdad’s delightā€

      FUCK YEAH!

    3. Rhywun

      He liked shepard’s pie [etc.]

      A man of good taste! ??

      1. Gustave Lytton

        Seconded!

        Condolences to the Regicidal family. A life lived in full is the best legacy one can leave.

    4. Spudalicious

      My condolences to the family, but that was a man who knew how to live life.

    5. MikeS

      Condolences, Regi’. I’m glad he lived into your adulthood so you could really get to know him.

    6. The Bearded Hobbit

      he left the world better than he found it.

      The best legacy anyone could ask for.

    7. blackjack

      Condolences. Sounds like one of the good ones. I like old people, kids and animals. The rest of you are annoying.

        1. Spudalicious

          That was awesome.

          blackjack is just another effin’ Tulpa.

    8. Count Potato

      Sorry šŸ™

    9. I’m sorry for your loss. It sounds like he was a hell of a guy.

    10. RegicidalManiac

      Thanks for the condolences, everyone. He lived a good life and left a solid mark on the world and on his family.

      And I left two of his favorite things off the list above:

      Aviation and cameras.

      So Mrs. RegicidalManiac and I are going to move our Oshkosh weekend plans up to tomorrow, where we will take a shitload of pictures and enjoy watching the war birds show off.

    11. BakedPenguin

      Sorry to hear that Reg. It sounds like he was a really good guy.

      Lost both mom & dad in the past 3 years, so I can relate. Trying times.

    12. DenverJ

      Your grandpa sounds like one great guy. My sympathy for your loss, and my congratulations on having such a person in your life.

    13. DEG

      Sorry.

    1. Neato. Once the financials around the Naptown household improve I’m looking to pick up a C&R Tokarev. Don’t know what it is, but I like the old Soviet bloc pistols. We had an old toaster my step-mother picked up at some antique store that was made in the 30s, and I swear to God between the Art Deco lines and the Bakelite it looks like the same guy designed the Tokarev and the toaster.

    Seinfeld seasons 3 – 7 : name a better television run.

    1. Northern Exposure 1-4

      1. The Bearded Hobbit

        I’m gonna say WKRP but weasel out that there were some clinkers in the show.

        1. Crusty Juggler

          WKRP was before it’s time. It was a great idea with fantastic performers. It will be forever underused. It’s like Fernwood Tonight.

          1. Crusty Juggler

            It’s 2 Night, stupid.

          2. What an awesome show, I need to revisit that. Anyone know if it’s on Netflix, Prime or the like?

          3. Crusty Juggler

            Hey grandpa, your best bet is the DVD, but I can’t speak for the quality. You can explore on youtube, as I, the Heavy Dingled Dude, as, and results are mixed, But I dig it! Martin Mull and Fred Willard ad-libbing is a treat.

          4. Crusty Juggler

            For example the Drip Daddy is right now watching an episode featuring Dabney Coleman, so it’s Dabs, Mull, and Willard!

            100, as we say. Fire. 100.

      Monty Python’s Flying Circus seasons 1- infinity

      1. Crusty Juggler

        This is not true. Monty Python is overrated trash. The movies are okay, depending on your taste, but the rest is trash. Utter trash.

        1. MikeS

          And you’re gay and your shit is all fucked up.

          1. Crusty Juggler

            True but also false.

      2. BakedPenguin

        Season 6 of Monty Python had a lot of clunk. 1-5, agreed.

        1. BakedPenguin

          Sorry, 4th season, if Wikipedia is correct. I was going by year. 1974 wasn’t a funny year for them.

      The Office (US) 2-6

      1. Crusty Juggler

        I truly do not understand the appeal of that show. I understand I am in the minority (much like I am in the minority of having a big bucket-cum giving man hog), and I get the appeal of many of the characters, and I have wanted to lick Rashida Jones’ feet for decades, but I don’t get why it is held in such high esteem.

        Silly-ish. Zoom. Reaction. Silly. Zoom. More.

        cheeky! I get it! But I don’t.

        1. Rhywun

          The “diversity and inclusion day” one was classic. But I didn’t watch most seasons.

          1. BakedPenguin

            Check out the clip from Fire Drill (note: I don’t know if that’s the actual name of the episode).

          2. Rhywun

            OK I laffed at the cat action but Dwight is an asshole, as usual.

          3. BakedPenguin

            That cat bit always gets me. And yeah, Dwight’s an asshole.

        2. BakedPenguin

          It took me a while. I’d see an episode here and there, and I didn’t get it.

          Then recently, I binged a season just to see what the fuss was about, and got into it. But if you’re not into cringe humor, it’s definitely not the show for you.

          1. Crusty Juggler

            I dig the humor, and I get the concept, but it seems like an occasionally fun show to me, not an all timer.

            And I of course don’t want you to defend it, I just can’t comprehend why the American Office is an all-timer to so many. It disturbs me.

            Like what I like, people.

          2. Suthenboy

            “the American Office is an all-timer to so many”

            Because so many spend a great part of their life in that environment. Each of those characters is a parody of someone every office worker knows.

      Any 4 years of Futurama, Family Guy, or the 3 seasons of Fringe.

      1. Rhywun

        I can’t even. You dare compare the lazy “humor” of Family Guy to Futurama?? For shame.

        PS. I liked what I saw of Fringe.

        1. BakedPenguin

          You dare compare the lazy ā€œhumorā€ of Family Guy to Futurama?

          Second.

        2. Akira

          My impression of Family Guy is that 90% of the jokes are of the “random unrelated cultural reference” type, which gets incredibly old after a few seasons. I can’t fathom how some people have been watching it religiously since it premiered and are not yet sick of it.

          1. which gets incredibly old after a few seasons minutes.

          2. Its one of those shows that you think is hilarious when you’re 12, but when you find an old rerun as an adult, you wonder how you could stand to finish even a single episode.

  30. Crusty Juggler

    Fernwood 2 Night is the Network of daytime television. And nighttime television.

    Discuss.

    1. The Bearded Hobbit

      It was the descendant of Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman which was utter rubbish.

      1. Crusty Juggler

        Fernwood was a terrible example of a show superior to those Seinfeld seasons, but for the Mull/Willard magic is something the young kids, the youth looking for inspiration* searching the Glib blogs, should watch on the youtubes.

      Andrew Cuomo; idiot or asshole? Discuss. While I sleep.

      1. Rhywun

        He is not stupid. This is the guy who railed against high taxes at the beginning of his first term. Who routinely doles out tax benefits to his buddies, who consistently fail. Who now has total control over NYC while the mayor sleeps and then has the nerve to bitch about the failures of the entities HE CONTROLS. He is pure fucking evil.

      2. BakedPenguin

        More of an “and” choice than “or”.

    3. Gustave Lytton

      Maybe she needs to find a better class of men to hang out with? The only way I’d know other guys have a cold is because they’re hacking up a lung or such.

      1. CPRM

        The only reason I’ve heard of any man complaining about a cold is because of work, where you know your voice is kind of a big deal in radio. Other than that I’ve never heard a man even admit to having a cold. “I am strong like bull!”

        1. Crusty Juggler

          Some of us apparently less manly men get the sniffles on occasion.

      2. Akira

        Maybe she needs to find a better class of men to hang out with?

        I can’t help but believe that this is the case. I’ve heard countless women express the “men complain about being sick” trope, but I’ve never actually observed it. I know I’m not particularly prone to whining when I’m sick.

        Also, is she implying that women don’t complain about periods??

    4. CPRM

      Hell, one time when I was drunk and sick and I coughed so hard I choked, passed out, fell down and got scraped up and pissed my pants. Ten years later I’m only telling the story to prove that I didn’t talk about it.

  35. CPRM

    Craziness at work, along with my own internet being down for most of the week, plus some issues with my PC meant no cartoon this week, luckily the last day of the month is Wednesday, so let’s pencil in the 31st for Hat and Hair double feature.

  36. slumbrew

    Tonight’s low-light:

    I slip while cleaning a knife after dinner and cut myself on the back of my finger, nice and deep (but right below the nail, so only so much flesh to go through anyway).

    I instantly shout “FuckFuckFuck!” and run it under cold water – it’s bleeding pretty good and I, of course, assume the worst. Paper towel, direct pressure – walk into the other room while my wife comes running out of the bedroom to see what the shouting is.

    Then I get light-headed and, for the first time in my life, pass the fuck out. Over a fairly minor cut.

    I come to pretty quickly and my wife is on the phone with 911. Smash cut to 2 firemen, a cop, then two paramedics standing in our tiny living room while they evaluate me.

    They end up giving me a band-aid.

    This is high on my list of most embarrassing nights. I’m like the anti-Suthen.

    1. straffinrun

      So, Kat was right.

      1. slumbrew

        Hey, it was hot today! And I was drinking! (sort of).

        It was odd – I wasn’t out for more than a couple of seconds & realized pretty quickly as I came out of it what just happened. It was surprising, more than anything.

        For the record, I don’t complain about colds, to the point that it annoys my wife (“why don’t you just admit you’re sick and let me take care of you?”).

    2. CPRM

      “I fell down some stairs.” eh?

    3. Playa Manhattan

      Add 8 cocktails to that story, and it doesn’t sound so bad.

      1. straffinrun

        That’s true with every story.

      2. slumbrew

        I’m ashamed to say it was just one glass of wine & a vodka-soda. Maybe 2 vodka-sodas…

        So no good excuse.

    4. Rhywun

      They end up giving me a band-aid.

      *belly-laugh*

      On a more somber note, recent happenings + the fact I live alone are starting to make me think I need to get one of those “help I’ve fallen and can’t get up” thingies. I don’t have any known issues but… if something happened, I’d be shit out of luck.

      1. CPRM

        Hahaha, Old Man With Life Alert may be as funny as Old Man With Candy.
