Rooftop Revolving Lounge #3!

We're coming up on elections, and indictments, and I needed something to make me smile. Today on Twitter (I only read there) I came across a new nickname for TFG that made me laugh out loud: 

The Count of Mostly Crisco

I know that others of you will get a snicker out of this as well. ;)

And btw @dannyboy, Boone is absolutely adorable!

@cindy  I laughed so hard at this that I had tears streaming down my face and I had to hold my sides!!! For some reason.. it just "turned my tickle box over" as my Grandmother used to say!!!

Thank you for the good belly laugh.. I needed that endorphin release!

@cindy 

I don't know who tweeted it, but Stephen Colbert came up with that a week or two ago. New fave of mine too!

@journeywithme2, IKR? I read that and it hit my funny bone. Laughed out loud & scared my sleeping dog with my response. 

@laura-f, thanks for letting me know who to credit. I read some lawyers, some alt-gov accounts, like Lawrence Tribe, Terry Kanefield, Angry Staffer, Mueller She Wrote. My guess is I read it on either Angry or Muller, She Wrote's time line. 

@cindy You mentioned frequenting Twitter.  Do you follow Simon Rosenberg, by any chance?

He seems to be amongst the few in the echo chamber who isn't parroting the "Sky Is Falling!" narrative for the Democrats.

The drought in TX is really bad now- having to water things that would normally be fine on their own, esp in October. I happen to love big, tropical, gaudy plants. There is one part of my yard that abutts a busy sidewalk, and it's a real jungle right there.  I even go down to the bayou, and collect fallen Spanish Moss from beneath the trees, to hang from the bushes and trees in this part of the garden, for extra drama.    So, the other night, i set up a sprinkler to water my little jungle.  I knew that it would probably spray directly onto the sidewalk, but it is easier for me to turn it on first, and then adjust it as needed.

 I went to the spigot, about to turn it on, and then i heard people coming up the walk.  Waiting for them to pass.  I could hear them talking. It was a probably 12 year old girl and her Mom.  The girl was saying how "you know on Our Street, people take care of their yards! Everything is trimmed, and so pretty, and perfect! And then, you turn a corner, and it's This Mess!  Look at this yard! What is this supposed to be? Some kind of tropical rain forest or something?!?"

 And so i blasted the water on, (lefty loosey!) and drenched the little brat.

 Because i also happen to be a 12 year old.

@unk-p I love your yard.  I love that it is a jungle with big leafed plants, the gaudier the better, where all kinds of wildlife can slither and scoot around. Yards like the ones that girl likes, all trimmed and shaved, are dead zones.  I am glad you are really just 12.

@jeanne-mayell yeah, you forgot to ask me how old i was when i signed up for my account, lol 

Warmly welcoming first time poster @pat-czap to our form. Looks like you have been a member for a couple years. Nice to have you join us and I hope you find our community a caring and happy place to visit. 

@lovendures Thank you!  I've been a lurker for years and tried to join, but thought it did not go through. So a few years later, I find I was a member of this wonderful site. Duh. I have no idea what the hiccup was on my end. User error! Needless  to say, the death of Cindy's dog Ricki, caused me to post! After reading posts for so long, I feel I know so many of you. This is truly a wonderful place to visit!

I mean those unsavory weak-brown imposter logs that are seemingly produced by the millions in Satan's Try-And-Make-It-Taste-Like-Chocolate Factory.

My mother loved them, along with Necco wafers and the tooth-ripping Mary Jane's, but she grew up during the Depression when no good candy was available, so I forgive her with a full and free heart.

Candy corn is routinely listed as one of the top five most-hated candies of all time, which pains me because I have a dish of it, mixed with Mellocreme pumpkins, out every year from September 1st until Thanksgiving Day. Traditional, though, not all the disgusting variations they sell now.

So, you know how it's impolite to pick your nose? Well, there is a better reason not to do so.

It MIGHT lead to dementia.

What?!?!?!

Putting this info here because I don't think we have a science category. 

I also think @unk-p and others will have something witty to add if I place it here.

@lovendures 

Certainly brings new meaning to the phrase Brain Boogers.

(Here all week...)

@laura-f 

Hahahaha!

New medical forms to fill out will include the questions:

How often do you pick you nose?  Once a week_ Once a day_ Once an hour_ .

Do you wash your hands or use hand sanitizer before you pick your nose?  Y_ N_

@lovendures didja hear about the MAGAt that pulled a 15 pound booger out of his nose?

His head collapsed before he could eat it.

sad trombone
