Most of those ads just induced m/l nostalgia, or a smile, but I yelped out loud when we got to the Clairol Air Brush. All that hair! And those teeth!

For some reason, this made me think of you, bob:

CBS:DC: A recent study reveals that birds can fall in love.

Ha! You don't have to tell Great Uncle Norbert and Great Aunt Phyllis!

Seems there's been a change in the background lately. I've been meaning to compliment you on it. Today, I happened to bring up a bob page on the big screen at a small resolution, so we saw a big bunch of the background. Milady Webworker was appreciative, so I thought I'd pass that along. She was also amused by bob's childhood home.

...I found Ace...

Merciful heavens, Bruce waW, a little content warning, please!

Ideas that don't make the Hollywood cut

Remake of the Odd Couple with a hetero couple!

The slob is a male and a female as the prissy one. For added pushing-the-envelope, they are married.

The Odd Honeymooners.

I missed the part of Stuck on Stupid's story where some of the Horde decided it was all fake and ran him off. I thought it was a good story, and regardless of being real or not. Seemed like an all right guy; as I say, I missed the end of his time on here.

Some of the suspicion was that his gf had the same hash, IIRC. If you see Milady posting on her own handle, it will (usually) have the same hash as mine because it will be through the same cell hotspot at home or fixed network IP at the office. (Hope we don't get accused of flimflammery for that.)

I used to like Bloom County, in the olde dayes. I tried the new strip. It was good for one gag - penguin wakes up after a quarter-century and finds out we're much the same, ironically (e.g. Bush, Clinton names still around). After that, it was just day after day of Trump-bashing. I'm not a Trumper (Trumpet? Trumpster?), but it became boring-unfunny immediately.

Think I need to go lie down in a field of dandelions.

Things that make you go "hmmm."

#2 will be 1/2 of #1, #3 will be 1/3 of #1 and so on.

Over all kinds of analyses.

I mention it because the distribution of the candidates in the chart posted yesterday follows the Zipf pattern, m/l. Chart:

BCochran1981: You're all ugly and stupid!!1!1!

The ugly I can live with.

Just wish the stupid wasn't unfixable.

I especially like the artist's lively use of bright greens and bold cherry reds.

Sure seem to be a bunch of AT&T IPs blocked from commenting. I'm compiling a list for the hampsters.

Trying again...

Morning, Glories! Thought I'd throw my 2¢ in before the thread died.

The new Muppets show isn't on PBS. It's on HBO. IIRC.

Folks, there are still links lying around that take you to the port-1080 page rather than acecomments.mu.nu, including (last time I checked) the Archives. Avoid the port 1080 links. Debris left from the server fail a while back that Pixy hasn't cleaned up. Still.

Yay, Vic news and Poppins tales and the usual gang of Morons. My day is all downhill from here.

Think I'll risk a second cup of coffee now...

Didn't read the story, but based on what's said here...

If they thought the kid might have brought a bomb to school, why would they do anything else than immediately evacuate the premises until the bomb squad got there?

"Hey, that could be a bomb. Let's bring it down to the Principal's office while we talk about it." Sure, makes sense.

I found Waldo's tribe!

Morning, Glories!

I've got nothing to add here. I was just thinking, what this thread needs is another comment!

I really don't want to touch the horse-fondling line, but I do want to note that in my newsfeeds, Weird Universe - Fondles Horse, but not his wife was immediately after Comics Curmudgeon: The horse looks a little sad, but he knows it needs to be done

Make of that what you will. And I know you will.

United States of America responds by claiming entire Western Hemisphere is ours, because North America and South America have got America in the name!

BurtTC: I know lots of people believe God has an active hand in the day to day operations of this world. If you do, I don't know how you are not furious with Him at this time.

Occurred to me the other day, regarding the question of whether God set everything in motion in time and space and then sat back to watch, or whether God is intimately involved in moment-to-moment doin's, that the answer is, Yes. The two are indistinguishable with an Eternal Creator.

Our job is not to figure out whether God exists or not, but to figure out, as God is, why would God permit "space to destroy." (!) Supersimple answer: You would never have existed if it hadn't been this way. Are we worth it?

MTF: ...Wait, I'm confused; what century is it again? This news writer seems to think it's the 20th....

Vic: ...I don't understand your comment....

Oh, good. I didn't either. I thought it was just that the coffee hadn't kicked in yet.

Morning, Glories! Still catching up, while waking up. A full load of Vic News Network this morning. Good start.

Still Autumn this morning here in the middle of America, although I understand we'll be reverting to Summer later this week.
