Quote Of The Day

From the Greatest Living Englishman:

The Clarkson’s Farm star admitted that he couldn’t understand how machines can ‘spot what’s happening in every part of your body, apart from your bottom’.

‘They can photograph your ventricles and every bit of your brain, but if they want to know what’s going on with your prostate, which lives in the anus, for some reason, the doctor has to put his finger in there. I can only assume it’s because he likes it.’ 

 As funny as it is, he makes a really good point.  Why can’t scans detect bowel/colon/prostate problems?

I await comments from the Leech-People among my Readers.

Missed That Show

Proving that Brazil doesn’t have a First Amendment:

A Brazilian comedian has been sentenced to more than eight years in prison for telling offensive jokes.

Offensive, or really fucking funny?  I report, you decide:

“What show could be more inclusive? I even hired a sign language interpreter just to be able to offend the deaf-mute.”

And my absolute favorite:

“I’m totally against pedophilia – I’m more in favor of incest. If you’re going to abuse a child, abuse your own. What’s he going to do? Tell his dad?”

Apparently, the audience roared with laughter all through his set.  The authorities?  Not so much. He’s facing eight years in the clink.

To which I say:  Libertem Léo Lins!

News Roundup

There’s no time for self-pleasuring or any of that nonsense, darling;  it’s
time.


...keyword:  “if”.  And “if” I win the lottery, there will be a huge increase in the number of “climate scientists” murdered by contract killers.


...I’m so old, I thought that the Nimbus was a broom model used by witches and wizards to avoid traffic jams.


...ahem:

But enough panic.  Let’s get busy with the important stuff, like Sex News.


...in the good old mid-20th century days, this was known as “Kraft durch Freude”.

In :


...a.k.a. stopping the Global Cooling Climate Warming Change© insanity from screwing up an entire state.

From the Dept. of Tourism:


...as had the Titanic.

In our new Riots & Mayhem Dept.:


...pity the fools.  My only problem is that the TexGov has pre-emptively mobilized the Guard, thus depriving me of some potential sporting activity.


...that bad apple hasn’t fallen far from the poisonous tree, huh?


...wait a minute:  how can the rioting / burning cars thing be happening in Britishland, too?  They’re not deporting anyone.


...that’s because the Irish Gummint isn’t deporting anyone either.

And in Global Jew-Hate News:


...took them long enough.  Even Egypt recognizes that the MuBros are a bunch of filthy terrorists.

And in an opposite move:


...too bad all those old Nazi refugees are long dead, because it would have been so much fun to watch their anti-Semitic asses do an Eichmann at the end of a rope.



From the Education Dept.:


...and apparently the bonkee is “depressed and lacking self-worth” as a result of her counseling.  JHC, what a precious little snowflake.

And now we look once again at linkless   

    

Once more down :

...because one week, you’re in — and the next week, you’re out:


...in-out-in-out:  I have no idea what that means, except that she’s not bad for a semi-centenarian.

Which makes it a good time to end this silliness.

Endless Capitalist Fun

I’ve had quite a lot of fun with the Monopoly board game on this here website over the years.  In case you’re new to this back porch, or your brain is as old-fartish as mine, see here for an explanation of Poor Man’s Monopoly, here for Feministical Monopoly, here for some updated Chance / Commmunity Chest cards, and of course we have our old favorite, Black Monopoly:

Now we have this kind of Monopoly:

Going back to the original Monopoly for a moment, we now discover this seldom-exercised yet official rule:

“Whenever a player lands on an un-owned [vacant] property he may buy that property from the Bank at its printed price. If he does not wish to buy the property it is sold at auction by the Banker to the highest bidder.”

I’m interested in the terminology “…it is sold at auction” — it doesn’t say “can be sold”.

Does this mean that the auction is mandatory?

I invite the Powdered Wigsters among my Readers to debate the jots and tittles, in Comments.
