Future contributors?
As soon as I walked in the boardroom at Glibertarians.com, I knew I was in deep kimchi. OMWC had a twisted grin and was waggling his eyebrows at me, Mex was trying hard to look nonchalant, HM just gave me a slight shrug. Brett was gone….probably “motivating” his MethGator™ distribution chain again. SP was kicking an old desktop computer and threatening its hard drive with reformatting, if it didn’t cooperate. Banjos made some excuse and hotfooted it out of the room, while Sloopy was already on PTO. Jesse was looking a bit uncomfortable – maybe Adorphan, Inc was getting battered on Wall Street?
“OK, now what?”
“You came up for Cryptid duty again.”
“What?! I always get that – why can’t someone else do it?”
“You need to catch up on site contributions…not meeting your quota.”
“…damn. OK, but I want those things OUT of the studio, as soon as we are done!”
“Sure, we can do that.”
Right. So lets get this going, the sooner I can flee. First up, we hear from our Maritime Mayhem Correspondent, SEA SMITH. SEA, what do you have for us this evening, besides leaving seaweed and salt water all over the studio?
SEA SMITH SORRY FOR MESS.
SEA SMITH GLAD HE MAKE IT. ALMOST LATE. HAD WORK DO. TRY GET INGREDIENT FOR BARLEY WINE. BUT HE HERE AND HAVE LINK, AND ADVICE! HE GIVE GOOD ADVICE, AND FUN LINK!
- WHEN CORRUPTION GET PAKISTAN CRICKET, IT BAD! SEA SMITH WONDER IF LOSE BET ON FIXED MATCH? SEA SMITH LIKE BET ON CRICKET.
NOW GET GOODEST ADVICE!
Q: I refuse to accept plastic items at gatherings, and do without if there is not another option. Finger foods on a paper napkin work very well, as gatherings that use plastic tend to be casual. I take paper goods as my contribution, so others have a choice, also.
This is done without getting on a soapbox or offending the host. This planet is drowning in plastic, and each person can make a difference, starting with their personal choices. If one can refuse to eat meat, one should also be able to refuse, tactfully, plastic.
A: SEA SMITH LAUGH AT SILLY LAND HOOMAN EAT WITH FINGER OFF NAPKIN! SO BRAVE, BRAVE! SEA SMITH NOT REFUSE MEAT, PLASTIC, ANYTHING. HE EAT ALL. HE THINK HE WANT DISCUSS FURTHER WITH SILLY LAND HOOMAN. BY DISCUSS, MEAN RAPE.
COME ON IN, WATER IS FINE!
…
Um, thanks for all that, SEA. Now time to turn to our Senior Cascadia Correspondent, STEVE SMITH. STEVE, what do you have for our readers tonight?
WHY RUN? STEVE SMITH NO HAVE VIRUS!
STEVE SMITH GLAD BE HERE, AND HAVE RACCOON IN POCKET! HIM GIVE LINK FOR FUNNY GLIBERTARIANS, THEN ADVICE. GOOD ADVICE.
- WHY MEXICO LET AIRPLANE IN? STEVE SMITH NOT SURE THIS IRONY OR NOT. HIM PROMINENT FOREST LAWYER, NOT HUMOR EXPERT.
GOOD ADVICE. FROM STEVE SMITH. HERE. NOW.
Q: What has happened to the art of small talk? It is, or used to be, a style of conversation that exchanges small ideas and small questions, enabling people to know each other better. It should make a person more comfortable.
Starting with, “How do you know the host?” is a good idea. Asking “Do you work near here?” is less intrusive than “What do you do?” and lets the person tell as much as they want. If I have met the person before, I might ask, “Are you still working at ____?” In turn, the person would ask a question such as, “Are you still involved with your hobby?”
I was at a child’s birthday party where there were more adults than children. It was a small gathering, and I have known all the guests several years. I asked each person questions about their work, their family, hobbies, etc.
Everyone seemed comfortable giving me updates on their lives, but not one person asked me a single question. Not one person, not one question, though we did share stories related to the questions I asked. They all know I am involved with volunteering and what my hobbies are. They know me enough to ask me about my life. Except for two other adults, everyone there was a generation or two younger than me.
Am I feeling sorry for myself? Am I being selfish? Am I expecting too much of the younger generation?
A: STEVE SMITH KNOW WHAT MEAN. HIM TRY CHAT WITH HIKER, OR CAMPER…IT JUST “Aieee! Bigfoot, run!” “Argh, a monster!!!!” LIVELY ART CONVERSATION NO MORE THERE.
SUGGEST IF NO TALK BACK, ASK QUESTION, THEN HIT ON HEAD WITH BIG ROCK.
IT NICE SPEAK WITH YOU!
FREE CASCADIA!
…
Free Cascadia indeed. Last up, our CLEANSING Correspondent, ZARDOZ. What is on your mind tonight, ZARDOZ?
ZARDOZ IS DISAPPOINT
ZARDOZ SPEAKS TO YOU, HIS CHOSEN ONES. ZARDOZ FEELS A BIT LET DOWN. ZARDOZ HAS BEEN OBSERVING THE BRUTAL MASS MEDIA, AND EAGER TO OBSERVE THE DEAD BRUTALS, STACKED LIKE CORDWOOD. NEEDLESS TO SAY, ZARDOZ FOUND THE NUMBER OF THE CLEANSED TO BE TOO LOW FOR HIS TASTE. THIS HAS LEFT ZARDOZ TOO DESPONDENT FOR LINKS. HOWEVER, HE MUST GIVE ADVICE TO THE CHOSEN ONES.
Q: I received an invitation to a friend’s milestone birthday celebration, where the birthday part is incidental to its being a charitable event consisting of a mock version of a popular game show. Guests are expected to pay to attend the event. The celebration will consist of serving an appropriately themed cake at the end of the event.
I am on a budget, and have specific charities to which I donate. I find this invitation distasteful, as it appears to be a minor form of extortion. Of course, I will gracefully decline and wish the celebrant well. Would you consider this invitation acceptable and/or in good taste?
A: WORTHLESS BRUTAL! YOU SHOULD ATTEND, WIN THE GAME SHOW AND DEMAND YOUR PRIZE, IN CASH. WHEN REFUSED – STALK OUT IN A HUFF, NEVER TO SPEAK TO THE BIRTHDAY BRUTAL EVER AGAIN. MUST ZARDOZ DO ALL THE THINKING AROUND HERE? OH, AND LEAVE YOUR OWN “APPROPRIATELY THEMED” BIRTHDAY CAKE, IYKWZMAITYD. (ZARDOZ WOULD LEAVE ONE SHAPED LIKE A LIVE CLAYMORE MINE, AND ACTUALLY BE ONE THAT DETONATES WHEN THE CANDLES ARE BLOWN OUT).
ZARDOZ HAS SPOKEN.
…
Um…yes, yes you have spoken, ZARDOZ. Thanks for that. The comments are over to you, Glibs. I am getting the heck out of here.

I actually agree with complainant #3 – nobody should be “forced” to contribute to a charity against their will. Of course, they can just decline the invite so there’s no real conundrum here at all. Nut up!
Geez, it’s Friday already?
I’ve had to consult my online calendar carefully each WFH day. Whereas when I actually retire I just won’t give a fuck what day it is.

I’ve been asked that before, Sean. Don’t answer!
Ooooh,…carry on.
Usually sgammo. I snuck this order in right before they closed due to high demand.
Aimsurplus gets some of my money too. Occasionally targetsportsusa, brownells, or even cabelas – depending on deals.
I used to get a lot of stuff through AIM. Good people.
Sorry about the job situation.
Thanks. If you’re gonna be passing through the region, let me know.
I could use some back up bourbon…just in case.

I’m planning to be down late April/early May, assuming things get back to something approximating normal. There are some events I want to attend.
Like I said on Glibs helping Glibs thread, I have no problems with shipping stuff.
Oh, I noted your and gbob’s offers. I hope we don’t get that far into it…
I’m down in York County by the MD line, so if you need something I’m not that far.
Thanks JI.

I admit that I was thinking something very close to this.
“People worry what other people think of them when they would be surprised how little they do.” – Clemens
Everyone loves someone that talks about themselves all of the time.
Ahem, ’round these parts, that is “cunte”.
I’ve long since had to learn that, typically and for most of the time, no-one gives a rat’s ass about me. That goes double for the yutes, who behave as if I’m invisible/meaningless.
It’s surprisingly liberating, all things considered.
^^^THIS
Your dangerous ideas that I can’t specify are terrorizing the students of this campus in a way that I can’t specify.
Did drugs fall out of Prager’s ass?
I just heard someone say that even the people who are walking around saying that this is no big deal are super secretly scared and that this is just their own way of coping.
No. It fucking isn’t. This isn’t scary. You cunt.
And they’re all going to vote for Joe Biden, because reasons.
Just explain that you are worn out on living through the end of the world over and over.
When everything is a public health crisis, nothing is a public health crisis.
^this^
Seconded.
Man, aids is ravaging the land and Reagan doesn’t seem to care at all.
Someone needs to dig up the clip of Oprah predicting that most of us would have the AIDS by the early 1990’s.
Yeah, sex was going to kill us if nuclear war didn’t first. Growing up in the 80’s was just peachy.
Heh… Yeah, the 80’s was when herpes became quaint.
Obvious, but what the heck.
Well, Santa Claus got it.
Heh, heh, you guys rock.
Damn, how many nightmares did I have as a kid of people vaporizing in a nuclear attack cause I watched The Day After?
My mom was briefly obsessed by that movie. Ugh, mom ?
I stayed up past my bedtime and I paid the price for years.
I don’t recall if I just missed it or purposely avoided it, but I’m happy I didn’t watch that, given the number of stories like yours.
I could tell you my Nuke paranoia story, but it’s long and involved.
I’m pretty sure I missed The Day After, but I saw Testament. Not the stuff of nightmares, but horribly depressing. And, as it happens, set in a suburb of San Francisco.
I was 11 when it aired and don’t remember being at all frightened.
I skipped polio in the ’50s, too many people dying
I was 14 & me neither.
AIDS freaked me out WAY harder.
Me too. I was a little younger, didn’t understand why aides was this scary crisis being hawked on the news.
(Not a misspelling, I was young and didn’t grok)
I was at Ft Lewis when “The Day After” was shown. I wasn’t impressed. However I did get a big laugh when about a week later a unit set off a nuke simulator near the edge of post. It was a clear day and the mushroom cloud was seen by civilians living nearby. Much panic occurred, Later the Corps Commander restricted the training areas you could use those simulators in.
All I really remember about The Day After was all the adults around being Very Serious about it and making sure to let all the kids know that they were there to answer any questions that the kids might have, because Nuclear War is a Very Serious Topic and also nuclear war is bad mmkay.
That and the guy (Jason Robards?) who was in his car and survived by ducking and covering under the dashboard, which all the kids thought was the stupidest thing ever.
I think if I actually saw the whole movie I wouldn’t have been so freaked out about it. I used to creep into the hallway outside my parents room to get a good view of what they were watching, and I happened to catch the segment where it was frying people. Something about seeing the skeletons glow for a second as the bodies were incinerated somehow caught into my mind and I kept having nightmares about it.
They showed it in the Soviet Union on TV. Probably later than here. I recall making plans to watch it but somehow I didn’t. I haven’t seen it to this day.
I remember watching the news one night and the very serious news people explained that they had just pre-screened it and it was so so very sobering and important. Then it came on later that night, and it was so pathetically bad that even teenage me turned it off.
Pooh Bear needs to be pilloried in the market square for a week so we can smash rotten veggies on his fat Pooh Bear face. You aren’t getting away with this shit, Chicom, fuck you.
All right! Finally some good news in what has been an utterly soul crushing couple weeks. I got the Willys back and running. As part of the adventure I ran out of gas as my gauge is stuck and doesn’t go below 3/4 full. I totally spaced on that and of course ran out of gas on the Great Highway. Luckily my lovely wife was home and able to grab the empty gas cans from our garage and rescue me. Got a couple gallons in and a few sprays of carb cleaner and it was roaring again. Thank Zardoz. It’s been 8 damn months getting that thing back up and running right.
If you were in the Albuquerque area I would do my best to meet up so we could get some picks of you vehicle with my class-3 GI-spec 1919-A4 mounted on it.
Hell yeah. I need a gun mount on it. Here it is in all its glory next to the USS San Francisco memorial.

That is a bloody gorgeous vehicle; I’m happy you got it up and at ’em again.
I do hope it did “jump like a Willys in four wheel drive”
That’s a good song.
Awesome, thanks guys, I never caught that lyric before but I love that tune.
My wife just got one her cases featured on Volokh conspiracy. She’s all jazzed. I know, it’s way too local. She then started reading some other stuff on TOS and, after awhile started yelling t her monitor. I just calmly said “Yup, told ya.”
Your wife sounds awesome. Good job, dude.
Thanks.
I pray to every god that anyone believes in, and every god that anyone doesn’t believe in, that one day, on this site, we can all actually type; “Reason” as a descriptor of the very place we are referring to.
That would prolly result in excessive drinking, I’d think.
Can you define “excessive”?
I’m with Neph’.
I cannot define it because, every time I’ve done it, I don’t remember it.

Triple 300’s nice. I think getting rammed at sea justifies shooting.
getting rammed at sea
SEA SMITH DO RAMMING AT SEA
Track down my ass. Those were PLAN or another Chicom government agency’ folks trying to provoke a shooting incident so they could retaliate or try to dirt up Taiwan while the world’s attention is distracted.
That was the Chinese Maritime Militia in action. It is fisherman etc with paramilitary functions under the direction of the CCG or PLAN.
Not gonna lie, they have a good march.
This is done without getting on a soapbox or offending the host.
So you wrote an email to congratulate yourself instead?
Back in MIA waiting to get to Orlando. Come home to hear a curfew has been enacted for 11pm. Hopefully we can find a Lyft home. I’m sick of these ass hats making major decisions last minute. Evaluate, plan THEN execute. Asses.
Glad you made it back into the country. Good luck getting home!
Thanks.
Very little is changing day to day to justify the day to day changes.
WTF does a curfew accomplish?
A show of dominance.
Mostly this, but a guess with school being closed a reason to harass kids.
Respect mah authoritah!
The same thing as “gun-free” zones.
What do you mean?
/wonders what’s going to be closed in Ohio tomorrow or Sunday
Hoping I can get over to our favorite winery – in the next county – to stock up before they close the border. Or the interstate. (Why not both?)
You can always make your own. Much easier then brewing beer. Good luck on getting over to the winery, which one if you don’t mind me asking?
Brandeberry Winery near Yellow Springs. I am about the furthest thing from a wine connoisseur, but they have several wines that also have berry juice, and I’m partial to those. More than anything, we’ve gone for the music. (We used to play there, and several friends still do.) They also have more traditional varieties, and they’ve won a fair number of awards at various competitions.
Sounds like you would really like the wines from this place up near me. Wine awards are as big of a joke as beer awards though, there are so many competitions they’re easy to game. Not that there aren’t awards that indicate good QA practices though.
ZARDOZ IS DISAPPOINT
Because I have not panic-bought guns and/or ammo?
We just stopped for gas at Costco in Nampa, ID, and decided to go inside to check out the mid-apocalypse TP situation. The TP was wiped out, but there was a surprising lack of rioting and fighting. There were very few people inside, like what i would call a normal 10 am opening crowd. There were no lines, and the deli was still serving delicious hot dogs, but nothing else.
Coronavirus – It’s Deadlier Than You Thought
You’re either with us, or with the virus.

Yeah, it’s this.

O, jawohl!
Excellent
Let’s move past doom and gloom…
So, I’m at least 3 months past due on a hair cut. The mousse has been doing an ok job, but not enough hold on windier days. Any recommendations for hair cream? Which seems to be the next step up.
Cut your hair yourself. It’s what I do.
Been buzzing my hair to the scalp for ~20 years. Unless someone else has, uh, input on your hairstyle, there’s no excuse to find a barber.
Me and the gf have reciprocal agreements…
I like her hair long and she likes me with hair.
I was inspired to self-cut by an old buddy. His now wife put an end to that in his case & IMHO it does not suit him at all.
Have her cut your hair; Mrs JI has been cutting mine for years (with the savings going toward her own hair needs).
Agreed. There is no need for most of us to pay for a haircut… sorry to those who earn their keep that way. I do myself and my brood. The boy is the most complex, with today’s long here, short there styles. The youngest wears bangs, so that’s a pain to maintain – she doesn’t like getting it cut, and bangs are pretty much a monthly responsibility.
But the wife….. she wears her hair long. And still pays $60 to get it cut. That ain’t complicated at all. Just whack it into shape with scissors. (Ok, I exaggerate. Her hair is thick, so you have to undercut layers to get the appropriate shape. But still, between that and paying to get her nails filled, she spends more than enough to buy an entire professional barber setup every year)
I was a barracks barber in Army – $5 a pop for a Mighty Fine, High & Tight, or High Top with or without fade and I’ve been cutting my own hair for 30+ years. One of my biggest regrets in life is not just buckling down and going for a cosmetology cert. when I was in my 20s. I know a few theatrical stylists who make serious money doing blowouts and wet combs all day.
No cream, but I have a full can of Aqua Net that I’d only use if we built a spud launcher.
Hair cream is full of chemicals. If I were you I I would go with a hijab.
Water is full of chemicals, too.
This is not the 80’s. Ditch the mousse and use some texture lotion ?. American Crew makes good products.
I’m an American Crew fella myself. The light hold gel is probably not what’s called for here.
Not a Dapper Dan man?? I haz disappoint!
I’ve seen decent reviews on them.
Which one? https://smile.amazon.com/s?k=American+crew&ref=nb_sb_noss_2
I like their Light Hold Texture Lotion. It will give you some control and take away any frizz without the crunchy feeling of gel or mousse. If that’s what you need it is the best hair product out there. If you want a lot of control then get some of their pomade.
I do not not want crunchy. This sounds good.
One of those bottles lasts me about 6 months and I use a bit everyday after I get out the shower.
Yeah, that’s what’s on my barber’s shelf.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MFCKG43/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_OMwDEbMRJEAX8
Any recommendations for hair cream?
Well…
I was expecting that:)
Dixie Peach Pomade if you are southern, Bag Balm from Tractor Supply for every occasion
Beanie. Everyday. All the cool kids are doing it. Just have to be careful not to do anything else that hipsters do. One strike and you’re not out.
I’m with ya. My GF says my short and easily managed hair makes me look “too harsh”, so I’m growing it out. Not sure what the end result is suppossed to be. I have switched to Loreal Boost It volume enhancing mousse. It holds pretty well, but mostly it’s the hair getting longer so that the weight keeps it down instead of sticking straight up (which is fine with short hair but looks ridiculous when it’s longer).
I’m finally off the conference call for the night. To most likely need to join again tomorrow.
At least I have beer in hand, and beer being delivered tomorrow.
I just finished a Jolly Roger. Lager time.
Not a Major Lager?
Fat Head’s will be bringing me two six packs and a crowler (it looked interesting, a red wheat) tomorrow afternoon. I’m supposed to get my supplies to brew beer tomorrow. So that’s going to be my task on Sunday.
Nope. They don’t distribute my way and since I’m from PA, Lager means one thing.
One of the local brewpubs is considering reopening for take-out food plus growlers/crowlers. They took a survey on facebook. I told them I’d be interested in it. No word yet on whether or not they will do it. Two of the nanobreweries in the area are still open for pick-up. The Irish pub is, last I checked, closed for the duration.
No, but I just had to pimp a good label design. I’ve got three different breweries I can order beer from, and they’ll deliver it to me during this madness (one has a dollar amount, the other will deliver 2 six packs, the other requires a case order). I was hoping to make it to the grocery store today, but the 12+ hour workday killed any chance of that.
I’ve already told my work that if DeWine issues a stay in home order. I will be going to the grocery store to stock up. It’s somewhat entertaining/frightening that saying things like, “I’m going to pick up over 10 lbs. of flour” is seen as a normal reaction to what may happen in the next couple weeks.
Speaking of that… time to start mixing up some bread dough…
Yeah, dumbass just got around to closing senior centers. Shouldn’t you have shut down the seniors before f’ng o er everyone else? Yeah, I picked up a bag of wheat flour today and some yeast. Already have plenty AP and bread flour.
I’ve got plenty of yeast, the sourdough starter was very happy today. The goal tomorrow is to either get to the grocery store in the morning, or walk over to the local strudel shop (depending on when the conference call for work starts), dinner will be from a local German restaurant that the girlfriend and I have wanted to go to, but haven’t yet. They’re offering takeout and delivery for the duration.
That German restaurant looks awesome.
DEG: I’ve also got this one near me (that I have been to), who just announced a while back that they’re buying a building across the street to build a brewery. Then this place where I know the head brewer (and they make an awesome Schwarzbier).
Yeah, that looks great. I like sourdough but my wife does not.
I’m jealous. All I have near me is this place, which is a pretty good place run by Bavarian expats.
I expect if Baker issues a “shelter in place” order in MA, Sununu will follow quickly in NH.

Thread: Many who are freaking out & panicking need to get a grip, do your research, & understand that most of the virus hype + gov’t approaches are coming from a single data set projection from a few scholars @ Imperial College UK.
The projections are NOT coming to fruition. /1
DENIER!
As Biden said the other day, we shouldn’t have a president who bungles things, but instead one who believes in SCIENCE!
Somewhere, Nassim Nicholas Taleb screams in rage.
the projections are coming from INSIDE THE HOUSE!!!!!
I flopped over on my desktop ded, D-E-D. I am now in my recliner mindlessly watching a medical drama.
My life, she is exciting.
Did the desktop survive?
I could never destroy either of my desks. They’re too tough.
Challenge accepted…
err…
Nevermind.
You wanna take on my tanker?
No it’s someone else’s property. I don’t wreck other people’s stuff.
So… you wouldn’t like my main working desk. Tempered glass and steel.
What makes you think that?
I have a triangle desktop that goes in a corner. It hangs on my wall with ginormous braces and lag bolts. When we move, I’m going to put it on galvanized pipe legs so I don’t have to keep hanging it.
I also have a 70s-era Steelcase that I adore. I’m going to have to let that one go, most likely, but they aren’t expensive to replace.
If I had the capacity to come and take that off your hands, I’d offer to buy the steelcase.
But the logistics and where to put it makes that not viable.
Yeah, look on FB. In my area, I see them pop up about once a month, about $25 or so. They don’t get snapped up very quickly.
I don’t have anywhere in my house to put one that makes sense. I’d have to get my computer moved to my exiting desk and break down the “desk” I’ve been using. (it’s a set of metal shelves I’ve set some plywood on top of as a temporary measure when I moved in)
Because if I really wanted to, I could break it. I even checked the weight of my monitors before ordering them to make sure the monitor shelf would support them.

Asshole mayor wants to hurt the economy even more, shutting down all “non-essential” retail businesses, complains we aren’t all forced to stay in our homes (stay strong, Charlie Baker – not something I’d thought I’d ever write).
Actual words from a coworker today after the company has spent Zardoz knows how much time/effort/money trying to make sure production can continue and staff does not have to be cut while abiding by government irrational, constitutionally suspect and generally destructive edicts: “I feel like a lot of people aren’t really taking this situation seriously.”
My blood-pressure elevated. Then a guy I consider to be a mentor who agrees with my “let’s take a chill-pill” on the Wuflu matter said El Salvador (?) shut down everything because of one case. I added, “It seems that the rest of the world is intent on destroying their economies along with us.”
Stupid fucks I work with don’t really understand the broad picture and are slaves to msm/government driven hysteria. Of course, at least one person in my department is a Bernie-bot who clearly does not understand/appreciate that his job would likely not exist if TheBern! got his way. ///endrant
I’m glad to be working where I am. The techs are mostly blase about it and the engineers are mostly unfazed. Everybody is joking about it. And now we’re all working from home until further notice 😛
“It seems that the rest of the world is intent on destroying their economies along with us.”
The economy of most countries would not change if people stopped going to work.
Good thing about working at home, I don’t have to worry about leadership overhearing my conversation. E-mail came back “I could actually read that in your voice with the subtlest of sarcasm”. Funny because I didn’t think I was being subtle at all.
Apparently someone in my company has five family members who contracted the COVID, one of whom is on a ventilator (all in Brooklyn, NYC). I feel bad for him, glad that I didn’t bitch more in any channels that people may see.
Cryptid Sighting submitted!
‘I am on a budget, and have specific charities to which I donate. I find this invitation distasteful, as it appears to be a minor form of extortion. Of course, I will gracefully decline and wish the celebrant well.’
I’m actually pleased that this person finds the subtle extortions baked into maintaining or advancing social status distasteful.
I’d also agree with the statement up thread that publicly stating so kinda dulls the gleam of any dignity gained.
If you don’t care about a cause, don’t donate. But also don’t publicly bitch about being hit up for money cuz peer pressure.
And if you do care about a cause, truly care, then decline the invitation anyway, stay at home, and cut a fucking check. Donate the entrance fee/cost of the plate and open up the slot for some social climber. Some or most of the money they give will still go to the cause while all of yours can go directly without all that overhead involved in hosting a charity event.
Don’t make it about you.

Tom Hanks survived 4 years on an island as a castaway!
He spent a year in an airport without being able to leave ?
Caught AIDS in Philadelphia ?
He was in World War II and rescued Private Ryan;
He went to Vietnam and rescued Lieutenant Dan ?
Was on a boat kidnapped by Somali pirates ?
Survived Apollo 13 trying to reach the Moon ?
Landed a Boeing on the Hudson River✈
If that son of a bitch dies of corona virus ??, we are ALL fucked!!!
”
also don’t hang around Tom Hanks,
I larfed Spud,
He also survived the steaming pile of shit that was “Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood”.
Really? Haven’t seen it yet. Was already disappointed in Parasite.
Hanks himself was pretty good, doing a take on Rogers rather than a direct imitation.
But the movie was godawful. You’d think it would be a biopic about Mr. Rogers, but no, it was some semi-true story about a sad sack guy magazine writer (played by an actor who looks like he does nothing in real life but mope all day) who was downtrodden about his relationship with his father and it was making him a bad husband and parent. Meeting Mr. Rogers (after being assigned to write a profile on him for Esquire, of all magazines) helps him to see life in a different way. Turns out only about 10% of the story is true, and they even made up the whole father thing. And it was the sappiest and most completely unsatisfying story line this side of the Hallmark Channel. Even my wife, who is a sap for chick flicks and family movies and had really wanted to see the film, said afterwards ‘what in the fuck was that?”
This is why Tom Hanks is OMWC’s favorite actor.
I thought Roy Scheider was.
Only in his Chief Brody role.
An interesting cover. And I would like to play with her under the covers.
That is a good cover.
oof.

I’m thinking we Glibs need a “Day of Defiance” next week where we each violate one of the bans unconstitutionally placed on us by the various governors, mayors, and other assholes (I repeat myself). No need to get arrested but just do something “not permitted” and then report back what happened.
“I found the doors locked and mandered around aimlessly for a bit.”
We already have seven of those next week, just like this week and just like all of the weeks preceding.

Monday’s going to be fun. I was told to come into work, but I have a feeling Cuomo wouldn’t find my job essential.
(For the record, I *want* to keep working.)
I fully expect Governor Klansman to not only follow CA’s lead, but to (try to) do it more and harder. I plan on pretending to be Lung Pow Sicken if pulled over. My job IS essential…to me*.
*That said I can work from home. But I will likely have to run by the office for a few things if the edict is given.
What, exactly, is going to happen to me if I go out? Every day? Like I have been doing? Because I can?
No restrictions yet, but I will walk my Dog at the park no matter what, something about Slavers? Fucking Off?
“No need to get arrested” who cares? I got no place to go, and the jail should at least have TP.
There’s no bans here yet, although rural San Miguel county has implemented a cower-in-place order despite having exactly zero cases.
But, you people in NYC, what’s your problem? They can’t arrest all 7 million of you.
Word on the street is that Montrose county just found its first case. I expect full blown panic now.
‘violate one of the bans unconstitutionally placed on us by the various governors, mayors, and other assholes…’
A day in the life, my friend.
Well there’s a case of Kung Flu at my local hospital. 60ish yo woman, travel-related, not a resident here.
We have a case in the nearest city to me but I don’t know the circumstances.
There are 5,000+ cases in my city. Dunno the number of hospitalized but you can probably imagine the freakout going on.
That’s over 25% of the whole country’s cases.
City where people are living cheek to jowl?
Of course it’s a viral hotspot.
Italy is getting hammered.
That’s because it’s full of italians who hugged people flying straight in from Wuhan.
Well, there are only 190,000 people in my county, so…
Yeap… 5,000 of anything is nothing here – but most people are innumerate.

On a personal note, I think I have gained 5 pounds in the last four days, and I haven’t washed my hair.
Off Topic—Regarding empty TP shelves. I am thinking that stores have it coming in/are restocked but aren’t putting out. It may not be worth the hassle of restocking, having to ration, and dealing with aggressive shoppers. If most people are panic buying it, hold it back until everyone calms down.
Dad got a hot tip from a Walmart employee about a shipment coming at three this afternoon. Sure enough, it came and everyone walked away with the one package of TP they were allowed.

In the past half hour I have killed two tiny spiders on the wall in my home office. I do hope that they are not newborns. . . perimeter bug treatment begins tomorrow.
You’re not supposed to kill the spiders.
If I don’t, my cats will.
And your dog will kill the cats who don’t kill the spider.
And I don’t know why, she swallowed a fly.
My petite, female feline is the one that gets the fly’s (I’ve seen her grab one with her paws out of the air). The male seems to like spiders. Idk if these insect/arachnid snacks are healthy for them but so far so good.
I had a barn cat that was the most vicious hunter ever. I saw him leap from the upper rung of a farrowing gate (a skinny 1″ steel tube) up 6 feet with a half twist, sink his claws upside-down into the roof beam, while simultaneously catching a barn swallow in his mouth.
You’re supposed to spray for them.
Spiders I don’t mind… but millipedes, those things creep me the fuck out.
House centipedes bug me.
Mostly it’s line of dozens of legs darting across the floor at thirty miles an hour when I don’t expect it.
They’re even ugly sitting still.
When I was a kid, my room was in an attic. So, I figured out that if I put my shoes by the few heating vents in winter, they would be more comfortable when I put them on in the morning. One day, my foot wasn’t fitting in that well, so I pulled my foot out and shook it. At that point three fucking millipedes fell out and started running around my room.
I’ve never seen a millipede that big. The type that lives in new york is tiny.
*shudder*
Throuple?
For every spider you kill, 7 more are created. Science! or something.
Tonight’s episide of Numb3rs (Loved that show! Brainy boys make me hot!) on the Heroes & Icons channel:
What a co-inky-dink.
I suggested that we order takeout from our favorite neighborhood restaurant in order to support them during these hard times.
It turns out we weren’t the only ones. There was an hour long wait between order and take-out.
Sometimes I want to kill my neighbors, but tonight I am happy with them.
I just got Gus’s Chicken. The driver did the “ding, dong ditch.” thing. Drop the bag, knock and run. Fucking funny. They were out of bread, for some reason. Kid had to trade his PB&J for tenders, yet another sign of the end of times.
Gus’s World Famous Fried Chicken?
I’ve stopped at their place in Collierville, TN.
That’s it. They’re new (ish) out here. Great chicken.
The only issue I ever had there was biting into the chicken without letting it cool. I’m not going there for an expensive dinner, I’m going there for a good cheap dinner.
I prolly shouldn’t have gotten rip roaring drunk last night.

I got my hair cut yesterday (when it was legal just frowned on) and my stylist and I were discussing options if the dummies shut down salons and it occurred to me — licensing is theoretically about hygiene. Hours and hours of licensing for hair and nails, mostly on a pretext of ‘health’. So why are these licensed professionals with trained hygiene practices being forced to shut down? It’s so annoying, since it shows exactly how useless that claim is, when they’re treated no differently from the handbag boutique at the mall.
I brought up the concept to the girlfriend of offering to travel around to cut/dye/condition hair (she had a cosmetology certificate for the state that I think is still valid). Her response was, “It’s illegal,:

Does anyone remember that 70’s TV show with the kid who had a mobile pirate radio station in his van and had to keep moving around to evade the FCC? Can’t remember what it was called.
There was also the 80’s show Max Headroom that had a pirate broadcaster as one of their main characters.

Good question. If it can simulate “deep frying” without actually deep frying, I’m sold. I have a bunch of frozen Indian samosas that want deep frying but I’m tired of dealing with all the oil.
Hopefully one of our resident Chefs will give us an answer….
I know there is *some* oil involved – just not an entire pot of it IIRC. In fact the name “air fryer” seems misleading to me.
I thought the same until I got one. Depending on the food, there’s isn’t a necessity for any added oil.
All they are is tiny convection ovens.
@MikeS
Intersting. Will keep an eye out for later.
In my opinion; yes. Get a cheapie and try it out. (we got ours at JC Pennys for I think $40) There’s a short learning curve. Basically, take the recommended oven time and cut it in half. Some foods will exude oil, some will benefit from a spritz of oil. Some frozen foods will do better with a quick defrost in the microwave.
Thanks Mike, I saw a few cheapies and wondered if I should try, now I will…
I’ll try that!

The kidney shape of the deck would drive me nuts.

also Sheryl Attkinson is Hawt!
Gilf!
I’m surprised Atkinson hasn’t been cleansed.
This “social distancing” trend hasn’t caught on here. Neighbors are having a BBQ and it seems festive, maybe even a little raucous? Expectation the the cops show up to shut it down = zero. Folks are wiping the sleep from their eyes about this nonsense.
STOP! NO HULLABALOO ALLOWED!!! CEASE AND RETURN TO YOUR HOVELS!!!!!!
But I want 1940’s era Virginia Grey to come to the party ala “Field of Dreams”.
Drinking at home alone is suddenly hygienic.
That’s why I never get sick, My household air is Alcoholic,
Just lies around all day and hitches a ride on Bella when it wants to go somewhere? Smells familiar.
She can pull me on a skateboard but she’s only 50 lbs, give the kid a break
Lucky! My dog weighs about 15 lbs and doesn’t love me.
So I’ve been doing my part to “flatten the curve”! Want to know more?
OK shoot..
Yes.
No…wait…
No.
Maybe?
So your saying that you’re “Flat-curious”?
Yes
So your saying that you’re “Flat-curious”?
No
*sigh* doubles are so random.
Can you repeat the question?
Sexlessness and barely conversing is hygienic. Conducting business from home isn’t a euphemism for prostitution. Literally rubbing elbows is considered rubbing elbows. Down here, it’s our time! It’s our time, down here!
The Golf guys and a few old Ladies, Hot though, otherwise I’m Solo, always stroking my Wookie
I wonder how many of those GIs or w/e we called them, if we’d said, Hey, we’re sending you up agains the Huns, but you can’t fuck any of the prostitutes because you or they might have influenza, would have fragged a motherfucker. And that was back when flu could kill you. Not like now, when flu shuts down the world and everyone watches as their retirement slips away into the ether.
Some old ladies are pretty good looking, as in my age old, so Shaving, nice clothes and good hair are mandatory if you wanna get laid….
/did I just say that?
We’re practicing social distancing down here. We’ve had a lot of practice.
It’s their soft-ass kids and grandkids leading the charge. Maybe there shouldn’t have been a polio vaccine so that everyone would be aware that shit happens sometimes.
soft-ass kids and grandkids leading the charge,
And they will die first
Is there a sci-fi series involving a villain trying to reintroduce Darwinism to improve the human strain? All I can think of is Godemperor Leto, which wasn’t really reinvoking evolution so much as evolutionary psychology, and Larry Niven’s Puppeteers selecting for luck with the genetic lottery.
Haven, and the Sauron Supermen,
we were Cattle……..
The antediluvian kings colonised the world
And Cthulu is only the Gatekeeper for the Elder Gods, careful out there!
As we seem to be in a permanent state of panic here in the west, I spent the day shooting. I picked up a ’48 vintage K22 Masterpiece recently, so I took that and my ’19 vintage .32-20 Smith up into the hills for a little plinking. But, I really need to join a range, get back to working on my target shooting skills. And now, at 9:30pm I am enjoying a nice glass of the one true whiskey, Midletons.
I don’t hate people, I just feel better when they aren’t around.
No, Save ammo, the Zombies are near!
We have a foursome set up for 10 AM, let’s see who shows up, so far it’s all rebellious types and Dog walkers, INSURRECTION!!!!
Man, I got a lake house in Bass Lake rented for the first week of April. Very fucking expensive and a bunch of people are que’d up to go. Trying to figure out how much of a hit cancelling is gonna be.
Fortunately, my fun is free and close by, I feel for you richers having to cancel your fancy vacations….
/seriously, it sucks
Kinky!
I knew someone would go there, LOL
Abe says schools to reopen mid April, amusement parks are going to reopen soon. How did we manage to escape the carnage?
Bushido?
Gaman power. Also, longer intestines prevent the sars-cov-2 from getting established.
Is Japan exactly like Italy? No, it’s not. The US is. Obviously we are doomed.
CHECK AND MATE
” soft-ass kids and grandkids leading the charge”, I had an altercation at the park yesterday with a very large man and his very large Family, as I walked away, my only thought was, I’ll outlive you, Obese guy, and he couldn’t have been 35 years old, Ozy was right, Sugar kills
Buy diet tonic water.
*sips G&T*
I only eat Oreos, otherwise no Sugar, Diet Tonic Water has too many Calories for me, don’t want get over 138 lbs you know…
Not ten stone!!

This was Wendy’s song about me, really,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-EF60neguk
by Prince! ?
He wrote that didn’t he? great song,
My ex used to listen to that album incessantly when we first joined groins. She read the whole thing as “Wimmin Power” but I thought there were some pretty songs and basically , meh. Everyone is entitled to interpret Art as they see fit. Should have been a warning sign. Hell, I still listen to tunes from when I was a boy because SOMA.
I still listen to JS Bach, don’t go wobbly on me now George….
This was our song, She was a randy gal, got I miss that ass!

I don’t always listen to Chris Cornell, but when I do, so do my neighbors
Fuck Yes! Laughing hard!
I thought that was Sinead Oconner.
Google tells me I’m an idiot.
Don’t believe shit you read on the internet.
Tell you what, Sinead Oconner is impossibly sexy in that video.
YES
Liv Tyler as Arwen was stale for me. Sinead Oconnor in that video is elven like you can’t believe.
The Bathrobe Belt in the Gold-Plated skivvy? What do I win? What? Too soon?
Prince wrote the song, she recorded it (first?)
You’re gay, don’t tell me you’re so gay she’d turn you off. She’s wonderful.
?
She’s wonderful. That album is great.
Sorry. I didn’t mean to suggest you’re gay.
Homophobe
Aw jeez, I suck.
Damn straight.
2.6K people downvoted that.
What the hell is wrong with people?!
good taste?
I was honestly confused/surprised by the Prince “cover” label. I’ve always known it as Sinead’s song.
I mean, I don’t doubt he wrote it, but I don’t recall ever hearing him perform it.
AFAIK, he did not record it.
Good heavens, Miss Hayek: you’re beautiful!
(OK, we knew that, but you do have Doonesbury eyes.)
Is that not a Hot little Girl! and Like Fine Wine, she has aged well….
I went to a reunion some years ago. The number of fat, balding individuals was shocking to me and I’m not even gonna mention the guys! Haaayooooo!

Bah. You’re “as fit as fiddle” like Grandma used to say. Me too. Aches and pains but still alive and kicking. Just not as bendy/springy as I once was. Thinking yoga for the stretching bit and the leering.
Disc golf has about the hardest throw in all of sports, no kidding, about 5 rotations happen at once, you definitely feel all your muscles if you do it right, and if you do it wrong you feel it, at 56 for sure….
Would have been fun to go to school with you! I had a buddy that was into martial arts that used to win bar bets climbing up and down stairs on his hands. Ferocious sparring partner! About your size and full of gentle. Man, when you’d block a kick you felt it. Okay, his name was Corn Pop!
I was a vert Skater, Bass player and Rock Climber, i love to fly! If they close the park i will defy it, and I’m not the only one, I have nothing to lose but my Liberty at this point, HAHA!
I am hearing that sentiment and passing it on to the higher-ups!

Every sniffle and cough has me wondering if I’m infected. This sucks.
No, relax and don’t freak out, ir you are that sick you may have the “common” Flu, hydrate, eat and stay warm, you will be fine, and grab a Towel…
What Bob says. Like him I’m “Ironman”! Don’t really get sick and have been wearing the same sized pants for decades. I’ll be a big hit when they stuff me in the retirement home to die.
I’m not even sick, thank goodness. Just random stuffiness and the occasional vape-cough.
Oh STFU.
Nevar!
Yes, this is the day.

I’m currently on a country-ish kick
I used to know you, man.
I’ve also been listening to this country music.
I can’t imagine the stage prep. Mind you, Alice Cooper is still humming along although he cancelled his local show. Rebel without a cough.
Old? maybe, Glib Dogs…

Kenny Rogers, 1938-2020
I guess he knew when to fold ’em.
Yeah, I can’t endorse his facelift decisions, but he seemed to enjoy life.
I had to stop listening to Ruby. I’m drinking Old Granddad, and was growing cross listening to that song.
I was never really a Rogers fan; that over produced, pop-country of his is (to me) everything that is wrong with the genre since the late 1960s. Still, sorry to see him go.
Did you just link to your own link?
We get big trucks, we push the groceries to the shelves, the groceries sell out in hours. To be a mensch, I went in early. My reward was being told I was “full of shit” and “a gay asshole” by an irate lady who was wholly convinced that I was hiding hand sanitizer in the back of the store and lying when I apologized and explained we have been out of it for a week. On the plus side, my round trip to NOLA in 3 weeks is down to $49. I just hope I can escape Poohfluquarantinocolypse.
Being called a gay asshole. She didn’t think too deeply about that insult.
Went for my regularly scheduled 6am Saturday Krogering and the motherfuckers have pushed back opening an hour ‘To clean and restock’. Fuckers have been closed for 7 hours already whats another 60 minutes, if you really need more help bring in a few more stock boys for fucks sake. Now my beat the crowd system will be useless, any asshole can get to a store by 7am. This CCP Virus caused Tom Hanks Disease shit is starting to piss me off.
Tee hee, yesterday my union sent out a text explaining those very hours (plus the first hour of the business day is reserved to the over 60s) and that we are not to engage with customers like you, but to refer you to a manager or security.
Oh I didn’t make a fuss or anything, I went back at 7 and sure enough full parking lot and a bottleneck at the entrance, there was plenty of stuff, The mac and cheese was a little empty that was it. I’m tempted to panic buy and start hoarding not because I’m worried but just so I won’t have to go back for a couple months, people are fucking insane.
Yep, did the same here. I would always stop and grab a couple things on the way to work, or try to go early right when they opened doors on Sat. Grocery pickup is a day and a half out. I have been pissed about this for over a week.
Also yesterday I saw two people out and about with the face masks on a, first time around here (NC Ohio)
NC OH, eh? I was born in Tiffin, but we moved to Dayton when I was <4, so I don't remember living there.
Tiffin
The mask thing baffles me. People are masked everywhere here (Rockaway Beach, NYC), but they’re wearing those dust masks one might wear when cleaning the attic. A few people have fancy blue masks and one guy at the grocery had socks on his hands. Also, local brewery tap room, which has already been package beer/growler fill only for several days, has gone credit card only for fear of handling dirty Federal Reserve Notes. The nice young DID take my cash tip after I explained the whole tax thing.
Nice young lady.
It wasn’t all that long back there were stories about forcing NYC businesses to take cash because… “undocumented” [sic] immigrants couldn’t access the regular banking system.
I just want to shake these people and yell at them telling them that the masks don’t help.
I really had no intention of waking up this early, since it goes against my personal moral code to go out any further than my back porch before noon on the weekend.
Well, a good morning to you, regardless.
Thank you! To you also, even if it’s a good morning’s sleep.
Morning!
Good morning! Now I want to go out on my back porch (AKA Tranquility Base) but it’s too cold. : (
I wanted to go for a walk yesterday but it was raining on and off. Today is only supposed to be in the 40s. 🙁
Now a word from our sponsors.
I had no intention of waking up this early, but I was trying to get to the grocery store. Because people are panicking like dumbasses, I have to break my habits and store extra food.
The local Hannafords had toilet paper when it opened at 7am, but when I arrived at 7:15, they were sold out. I know because I saw people checking out with TP, and saw the bare aisle where it would have come from.
I’ve been up for a while because if I drifted off again, I may miss the guy coming at 8 to spackle my basement.
Give me one good reason why an NFL team couldn’t try to exploit the untapped market of Olympic speed walkers. You could find one that could do a post pattern.
They tried Renaldo Nehemiah. Fast as blazes, but couldn’t catch a ball.
Have you seen speed walkers walk? They could catch a ball
Yes I have, and if they want to keep the size of the Olympics down, that’s one of the sports they should get rid of.
Straff’s drunk again.
Little bit.
Due to the ethnocentric time preferences of TPTB, I’m either shitfaced drunk or stone sober when commenting.
Seems to me that you don’t spend a lot of time on the in-between. Not a bad business model.
I plan on drunk commenting before noon today. One needs goals in these times of uncertainty.
And that is a nice ass.
On the chick in your avatar? You’re just now noticing?
I’d like to think a donkey just strolled past his window.
A very pleasant-mannered burro.
Nah. I was flexing my butt cheeks as I went up the escalator. #showmustgo on.
This take on the New Warriors trailer/launch is very amusing. I’m not familiar with this guy or his channel but he seems to nail it.
He’s an AnCap, a lot of you lot would probably like him. He’s not the funniest guy, so I don’t go out of my way to see his stuff.
Are they shooting at the walls of heartache?
Bang bang!
Headline:
I want DeWine to be remembered as a one-term governor.
I would prefer him to be remembered as the former governor who was impeached from office in 2020.
That’s our only hope, since apparently Ohio law doesn’t provide for recalls of statewide officeholders. >: (
My breakfast was whatever fell out of the grocery bags. A can of meat sauce with beans, and some mandarin oranges. Zero effort, but no consistancy.
Whoa……….hope you are not one of the poor souls with a TP shortage.
No. I still have five and a half rolls.
I’ve got 20+ rolls!
Panicky people keep picking the shelves clean around here or I’d have picked up another package.
And no, a little bit of canned “chili” is not going to mess up my insides.
My breakfast was a cup o’ coffee. I’m waiting to poop so I can do my weekly weigh-in. I was down 2lbs last week.
