Today’s Music: Wild Ones – Need It All
Nobody (me) got hurt, nobody (me) died, so I guess this counts as a good week. As always, it was made better by blogging! Here’s some of what I read.
Miss B smacked Bi-Polar upside the head. Kayjai committed crimes against snack food.
And Dreamshadow59 posted a beautiful, poignant and moving letter to her father , who helped raise a wonderful daughter.
I hope you get to read their posts, and everyone elses too!
And now we turn the Roving Eye of Foolishness to…well…foolishness.
Last week, we did our first ever poll dedicated to a person, Susie Lindau, as she moved on in her kicking of breast cancer’s ass. The poll asked “Yes, but what will she beat it like?
And from your answers, y’all should be doctors! (As always, my comments are irradiated in italics.)
a gang of PETA members on a mink-wearing puppy mill owner. (Madam Weebles)
(WE HAVE A WINNER!!!)
…nobody’s boobness! Terrible pun by Live Clay. Something more rspectable later
(Wait- there’s a pun type besides “terrible”?)
you beat a stepchild. (Don’t hate me, it’s just a saying! Marie Nicole)
(I don’t beat- Who have you- Please tell me they don’t have pictures…)
a Boss Hogg on the Dukes of Hazard beating another prison sentence ~WIM2Say
(Or, after seeing Daisy, Enos beating…nervermind…)
a guy watching porn beats….. well….. That One Guy
(Well, if That One Guy stopped interrupting them while they were watching porn, maybe they wouldn’t beat him!)
FDR beat Alf Landon in ’36. Ouch! Alex A.
(But Alf went on to have his own tv show, so who really won?)
cleaning a floormat after a week of camping. thematticuskingdom.wordpress.com
(When camping, I like to set my tent up halfway between the pool and the hotel bar…)
like a pinata! -So witty! Doggy’s Style
(I am NOT going to ask what the filling is.)
(But was it tasty?)
Like Rocky…Kayjai
(Not sure if you mean Rocky I or IV here. Because they are totally different effects…)
Tracy Partridge beat her tambourine.
(She was fantasizing it was Danny Bonaduce’s head.)
Congratulations to Madam Weebles for this weeks winning answer! And from the offered choices, the most popular was the kick-ass Wild Rider she is!. Which sums it up perfectly.
And the early reports are that Susie is doing well. Probably convalescing and plotting her next wild ride…
So this week, you get the poll from last week, or that would have been from last week if last week didn’t have a different poll. Or something. (Nope, the long sentence that still manages to make sense is still the bastion of SandyLikeABeach.)
Last week, I was going to ask where the hell I was while I was away. Which I’m now asking this week.
Even though I’ve been back over a week already.
head spinning yet? Great! Then you’re ready for a poll! Answer as often as you like, but answer before Wednesday, 12 June, at 2359 EST. Because that’s when this one ends.
And if you write an “other” answer with a way to ID you, I’ll link back to you next week.
And until we meet again, enjoy these!
First, if The Shining took place in my office, yeah, it would probably look like this.
And finally, TACOS!!!
Have a great week everyone!

Oh, man! I started watching the first part of that Taco video and it made me so want a taco. By the end, I didn’t really want one anymore. I think I’ll wait for some unsavory mental connections to fade, and then go get a taco and a serviette.

OK, now that I understand how the “other” answer should work. I don’t have a good answer and last week I had a pretty good one but didn’t identify myself because I didn’t get it and I’ve been too self-conscious to try it but I had a good one and you didn’t know it was me and now I can’t remember what I said.

The taco video reminds me of a British lady I once worked with who told me when she first came to America (she moved in rural Louisiana, no less) she got phrases mixed up all the time. She was talking to her mother-in-law and mentioned that she had been out earlier in the day, knocking up a few friends. Her very Southern MIL was horrified. Turns out, “knocking up” is slang for going to someone’s door and seeing if they’re home.

These were some of your best poll answers yet (and ironically, one of the shortest lists). Look, Weebles is a genius, everybody knows that,but in this instance, Live Clay was ROBBED. “Nobody’s boobness?” “Nobody’s boobness?” ‘C’mon, man! Oh, yeah, it’s awful, but can’t you see the brilliance there as well?
If the Village People had some kind of snow-guy in their retinue, I think Suzie’s pic here would qualify her for membership.
