THE 2023 THREAD NO ONE WANTED TO MAKE

[Duchess]

Are the GIF's I post showing up as a question mark inside of a blue box? I ask because my MAC has been showing me that with some pix for awhile now. I recently googled it in an effort to fix it but it was a worthless endeavor.

That's the only one I can't see. All it says is [Image: crying.gif].

There's some new code being used that prevents pictures from being hotlinked. I've only run into it twice but I expect it'll become more prevalent.

This morning I saw a man with elephant feet. I'm not exaggerating. It was awful looking. His calves to his feet were huge & discolored. They were bluish purple. It looked like someone had beat the fuck out of him and I really don't know how he was managing to walk. I've never seen anything like it.

They are known for the sandals (mine are at least 20 years old and function as new) but the boots are fantastic as well.

I knew the inventor of Tevas.  NAU grad, lived in Flagstaff and crewed for whitewater river companies. (He was a geology major, moved to Houston and when the oil market went bust, returned to Flagstaff to live the Bohemian life.  He was never a guide, as all of the promo materials stated.  Experienced . . . Yes . . . but not a certified whitewater guide.  Good guy . . . with model good looks and a body to match.)

Did his taxes for years.

Made most of his money off of knock-off royalties.

Always got three pairs along with my fee.

I do love Keens, though.

I jinxed myself. Had to superglue the fronts the very next day, flap flap flap. My feet have never had a tan or have had callous before now.

Don't buy that pound of licorice, Duchess. Don't you fuckin' dare.

[sally]

Don’t buy it, licorice is gross. I don’t know which one is worse, licorice or candy corn. They’re both pretty horrible.

Licorice is grosser. Candy corn is gross but tolerable.

I don't like candy corn at all. Might as well suck on a sugar cube. Yuk.

Why am I seeing so many adults expressing interest in that Barbie movie? Am I missing something?

Margot Robbie is hot af. I wouldn't mind playing with that Barbie.

I recommend checking it out just to see what all of the hype is. I hope I get to see it before heading back.

Why am I seeing so many adults expressing interest in that Barbie movie? Am I missing something?

Perhaps it's a captivating, well-written script, coupled with genius direction, cinematography, punctuated by a flawless soundtrack and A-List actors?

Or is it that Barbie presents herself as a women, but being plastic and non-human, doesn't possess XX chromosomes (or associated genitalia) . . . and is a conspicuous declaration that, in fact, appearances equate to reality?

Who cares and what difference does it make?

Who cares and what difference does it make?

It was an observation & it made me curious. I'm curious about many things. I first noticed that hideous screaming pink, there was no missing it and then I saw grown ass men & women talking about seeing the movie and that's when I wondered what is appealing about a Barbie movie. Barbie FFS.

That's Ken's job. Oh wait....he doesn't even have a shrimp.

Every time I've popped in today I see MS' name at the bottom of the front page and I think he's here. Happy birthday wherever you are MS. I surely do miss talking football with you.

If this were my neighborhood I'd be so fucking mad. I'd have to make my own sign so people would know I don't share that opinion.

I know some people feel strongly about blacks & Jews, etc. in their neighborhoods. I've never cared a wit. I'll care if you make the area look bad by not taking care of your property, but that's about the extent of it.

[sally]

I had Jewish neighbors years ago, they were nice. My son dated their daughter if that’s what you’d call it at 12 years old. Luckily no Jewish grand babies came out of the two week long relationship.
