Yeah, I suppose. But I have a gift/curse where I usually don’t really focus on the lyrics unless I put some effort into it. The cool groove guitar work of this song has always kept me from delving too much into the lyrics.

Three hour Turkey one year.
Tried to give my one year old frozen blue berries another.
A couple months later baby carrots, slimy with rot.
She tried to give my infant with no teeth some cake a couple months ago.
Depends on the size of the turkey. The young turkey breast Dad and I had was done in three hours.

“Only when the COVID-19 pandemic required the border be closed completely did this traffic significantly diminish, resulting in the U.S. government detaining those whom Canada returned after refusing them entry and beginning deportation proceedings against them, a controversial move since many of them had cited fear for their safety or freedom in their native countries;[9] Roxham and other irregular Canadian border crossings were reopened in late 2021.”
But isn’t it really interesting that they could always have stopped the illegal immigration, they just didn’t care to? All while pretending it was impossible to do.

The bunker had shipping container boxes stacked together to create a three-level building, with even a scissor jack elevator and tunnel ladders inside. Deputies say they found 36 guns, a pound of methamphetamine, an ounce of cocaine, a half ounce of psychedelic mushrooms and 200 pill capsules. Investigators also found $240,000 in cash and $700,000 worth of gold and silver. The duo was using the stolen electricity to power the bunker, deputies said.

I don’t see how it can compete with pecan pie.
Also: substitute pinon nuts for pecans. You can’t do 1:1 so it takes a little bit of practice.
My favorite pie is the one the I am eating at this moment.
Juneberry (Serviceberry) is another solid choice.
I volunteer to be a judge to taste test all the nominated pies.
Zooooooooom!
Come agree with me on how Pepsi and McD’s fries are the best

Pepsi!?!?!?!?! This is why I don’t Zoom…very often.
I’m to the point in my life where Diet Dr. Pepper with Cream Soda is the peak.
In other news; Mrs Hobbit has a new canine friend, an 11-year old Yorkie named “Wut”.
The (lame) joke works both ways:
“What’s you’re dog’s name?”
“Wut”
(Louder) “What’s your dog’s name?”
or
“What’s your dog’s name?”
“My dog’s name is ‘Wut'”
“What?”
“I said my dog’s name is ‘Wut'”
Barrel o’ laughs. Bottom line, though, she misses her last dog.
Wut? Love it. Is Wut a rescue?
Not really; we “rescued” it from my cousin’s wife who had one “Wut” too many.
Wrong. Wronger than wrong.
And also, Dr. Pepper is carbonated barbecue sauce.
That sounds better when you put it that way.
It tastes nothing like BBQ sauce.
Well, my local store doesn’t carry Diet Squirt so I’m stuck.
I acn’t even. Real BBQ has no sauce. Sauce is for spaghetti.
Until you add sauce it’s just smoked meat.
There is talk of Freedom Convoy 2.0 in Ottawa this coming February. Y’all are invited. Even the weirdos. BBQ is difficult in Ottawa in February, but I’m sure we can get it done.
My passport is expired. I don’t think I can get into Canada.

Is closed.
LOL same thing duh
Oh fuck off with this shit.
“Only when the COVID-19 pandemic required the border be closed completely did this traffic significantly diminish, resulting in the U.S. government detaining those whom Canada returned after refusing them entry and beginning deportation proceedings against them, a controversial move since many of them had cited fear for their safety or freedom in their native countries;[9] Roxham and other irregular Canadian border crossings were reopened in late 2021.”
But isn’t it really interesting that they could always have stopped the illegal immigration, they just didn’t care to? All while pretending it was impossible to do.

Call-back to the FEE article about wearing ties. Fuck that shit! I only wear them for funerals and you know what else? They are pre-tied around the collars of the only two dress shirts in my closet. I give less of a shit about Windsor knots than I do about how to properly fold a fitted sheet. Hate wearing a tie!
Festus fucking gets it.
DD214 protects me from ever wearing a tie again.
*looks for neckwear block on the form*
Maybe he’s got a pension that means he never had to work again?
Good morning morning people. Happy advent.
Good morning to you, too.
Morning y’all. ☕
Good morning, Lack, Ted’S, Sean, hayek (are you up late or early?), EvilShel, Scruffy, rhy, Stinky, ‘bodru, SSD, and homey! My, there’s a lot of us here this morning!
Choral music on the satellite radio, chai latte in the mug. This may be my favorite morning of the week!
The soccer is getting interesting.
Go home, you’re drunk.

Hilarious.

Anyone want to adopt an aquatic turtle?
I’ll include an aquarium and some 9mm…
I can’t even, with the “author”’s easy interchange of the terms turtle and tortoise.
You have a turtle?
Yes. It’s actually my gf’s.
She saved it!! 😃
Turtles are cool. Tortoises, too.

“I collapsed,” Walton-Clark said. “As a queer and nonbinary person married to a queer, genderqueer person, our household just broke.”
I can’t parse that.
Allow me to interpret.
They are insane and ultra high maintenance, and should be added to my secret database of “People I’ll Never Hire or Associate with.”
That’s gonna be a big database.
I went to Target for some tree lights yesterday. I was thrilled to find out that I can buy Christmas decorations that are designed by genderqueer non-binary people.
I totally stocked up in case this trend ends.
I wish that I could get people to understand – there are no safe places. There are dangers that you’re prepared to handle, and dangers that you’re not…
Does the Genderqueer card trump the Queer card?
Depends. Are thy hetpassing?
I think it’s the equivalent of a wild card.
It’s a longwinded way of saying “I’m mentally ill, my husbandwife too.”

A month old story, but I don’t recall seeing it mentioned here.
An underground bunker seems like a great place to get high on meth.
I thought they recommended not using shipping containers as bunker material.
Seriously interesting how they got that built.
The ceiling of shipping containers will buckle under the weight of the soil if the structure isn’t reinforced. I’ve seen reinforced containers commonly used though.
They make for decent concrete forms. Dig a hole, place the container, add rebar around it and pour.
Whoah. I’m impressed. They can’t have been total screwups to accomplish what they did. Only mistake was stealing grid power. Idiots.
Where do the seized assets go?
To the police Christmas Party fund
At an RV facility?
Is KK OK?
What a cunte.

The CCP govt is literally locking people in, resulting in building fires from which no one can escape, and she’s whining that we can’t do that here.
It’s a cold virus. Get some rest, take some zinc, vitamin C and D, and shut up.
Sorry; misthread. Should have been new.
NOT CALLING KK A CUNTE!!!🤣
LOL.
I remember once on a board about women’s tennis, one of the commenters meant to type “Correct on both counts”, but forgot the final O. 🙂
“….and the women’s midget track team is a cunning bunch of runts!”
Lorenz is far worse than the that.
That’s the girl that cries about being doxxed in interviews right after she doxxed someone. Such a pure piece of shot that I almost wonder whether or not she’s actually doing a bit.
Pretty sure she’s a full blown psychopath
