Good morning, and welcome to yet another edition of Hunky Hump Day.
If this doesn’t get ya movin’, I can’t help you.
Now for the hunks.
One of the Braves who got a hit or two.
Don’t remember who this is, but I don’t mind watching him.
To serve and protect.
Nice.
Leftover from last week.
Last, but not least, one of the pics from the mothership, ICYMI.
And that’s it for this week. Thank you for your attention, thanks to Pirate’s Cove for the links, and y’all have a good day.

I picked the wrong career.
Anecdotally, the homestead vloggers I follow on YooBoob all seem to have very warm relations with their spouses. Except for the one poor guy in Idaho who’s wife caught the unhaaaaaapiness bug and blew up their marriage, but I was pretty sure she was on her way out after watching her help make blood sausage.
Is this where we make the sausage?
ugh, meeting escalated from engineering demo to COO/President demo.
*clutches pearls
If you wear a string of pearls and clutch them a lot during the demo, you’re probably untouchable anymore.
Hahahahahaha. That’s actually great advice.
Wear a pride t-shirt.
I think that should be called a “Reverse Klinger”. Going trans to keep your job rather than lose it.
If sitcoms were still funny, this would be an episode or 6.
I wasn’t aware that sitcoms were still a thing.
I’ve seen a few episodes of Kimmy Schmidt which are hilarious but nothing else. There’s no way that show would be on regular TV. They kill too many sacred cows.
I’m leaving the pearls on the desk. Thanks though!
I left my pride t-shirt at your house after the parade MJ, so no go on that too.
I tried watching Kimmy Schmidt and turned it off after one episode. Too stupid for me.
I’m down to a couple Amazon Prime shows at this point.
I get to watch “Dino Dana”. The mom is kinda milfy, but the dad is a badly balding dot Indian who really needs to just shave his head.
Is this another one of those made up jewish holidays?
“PJ Masks” isn’t too bad, and I have enjoyed “Noddy: Toyland Detective” at times.
I’ve been watching Covert Affairs. The chicks are hot. The storyline is stooopid.
They already did cross-dressing to keep an apartment. Filed under “things Tom Hanks hope nobody remembers”.
Pepperidge Farm ain’t the only ones that remember…
No, Hotspur, this is one of the real-but-abrogated-by-Jesus holidays.
They already did cross-dressing to keep an apartment. Filed under “things Tom Hanks hope nobody remembers”.
Ah, but they had to actually fool people, much as Jack Tripper had to feign ghey in front of the landlord.
This would be a cisheteropatriachist feigning trans (very badly, like, still has a beard badly) to keep his job.
That TB Rays guy has very nice eyes. I’d like to see those eyes without a shirt.
Has anyone called Romney a **** today? And if not, why not?
I called him a cunt. Does that help?
Thank you, Clint…yes, yes it does.
Cunts are fun and useful. Assholes are just full of shit. Romney is an asshole.
We’re not going to devolve into that speech from Team America, are we?

It’s still a better understanding of politics than 90% of the theories taught in “International Relations” courses.
Life: Don’t put your dick in crazy.
Matt Lauer: Not only will I put my dick in crazy, I’ll put it in crazy’s butt and see how that works out.
Life: Dude, you done fucked up.
In Lauer’s defense, if you’re gonna stick it in crazy, you may as well stick it as far as it’ll go.
Anal + rape is a bad look. I think the butt stuff adds a zero to the settlement.
Smart chick.
Surprise butt-secks: the cause of, and solution to, all of life’s problems.
Sodomy is usually an additional charge, yes. Though I would think you could argue that Laurence v Texas should have changed that, unless the law is specifically against “forcible” sodomy in NY or wherever it happened.

Sodomy is usually an additional charge
Your mom throws it in for free, though.
On the plus side, she’ll be term-limited.
Re: Lauer
Didn’t this chick voluntarily go up to his room and continue to see him after the alleged ‘rape’ too place?

Been a long time since I delved into the high falutin urban corp type environ. The small business I recently worked for was entirely old school, all paper based. I just completed my entire new hire package using multiple online portals that were sent to me in email links. The experience also included such profile questions as
What is your favorite fast food?
If you were a animal, what animal would you be and why?
If your life were a movie, what actor would portray you?
Think they’ll get a hint after I answered everything with
GET OFF MY LAWN!!
What is your favorite fast food?
If you were a animal, what animal would you be and why?
If your life were a movie, what actor would portray you?
A) Your mom, because she’s cheap and tasty.
B) A horse, because I’m already halfway there IYKWIM
C) Ron Jeremy.
A) black coffee, nothing else is safe
B) Galapagos turtle, so no one would hurt me and everyone would be trying to get me to mate with fertile females for the next 150 years
C) John Rhys-Davies with a shaved head. He chews scenery and has experience playing a Dwarf.
I think we found out why CoAlex had to fill out so many applications.
leon just couldn’t see over the table.
I turned down 2 job offers this year, a third I told my availability was April 2, 2020 and they said to get in touch.
Yes I’m bragging. People don’t mind the Dwarf thing when I tell them that it means I’ll happily sit in my cave and forge magical artifacts for them.
I’m jealous of Leon. I’m still stuck in this jerb, and have no idea when I’ll be able to escape to something else.
Oso bait

The others were going to involve either a minimum of 2 months in Texas or daily 40 mile commutes to Kalamazoo. I’d have jumped at either if I’d been able to stay in my cave.

==========
Pretty much the only reason to watch most shows.
I actually sent the third to Alex so he could come be my neighbor. Sadly, not a fit.
A) I’m not permitted to frequent restaurants of any kind
b) Armadillo, because like me, they carry leprosy
c) Charles Laughton
40 mile commute isn’t bad, if it’s highway. I do 30 miles one way.
I should start working on my Spanish again. And by working on my Spanish I mean watching messican telenovelas.
A) I’m not permitted to frequent restaurants of any kind
That’s not true, I saw you in a restaurant once.
You were at the table in the back, behind the door. But it was in the restaurant.
Here to Kazoo is “highway” for most of it, with occasional city traffic through Three Rivers and Schoolcraft. You’re looking at 70-80 minutes in winter, on roads that are either busy or snow-packed.
That TB Rays guy has very nice eyes. I’d like to see those eyes without a shirt.
Kevin Kiermaier.
Not shirtless, but one of the most amazing defensive plays I’ve seen, started by Kevin. This ought to get your motor running…

Now that’s the way to throw the relay, although he did get a nice hop from the ball to start it.
part of playing the wall. he couldn’t do that in houston
I can’t believe I have to go to work AGAIN today. They seem to want me to keep going back there, to labor for their filthy money like a commoner.
How long can this go on?
Seriously, tell me. I have a lot of trust issues when it comes to the durability of careers. Can I count on this? It’s scary.
I just want to be able to make enough money to live decently on. I’ve given up on the concept of ever retiring.
Laura, you can always go back to Lowe’s.

text from Hannah last night:
“I just watched a trauma patient come in with a gun shot wound to the chest, an acute care surgeon came in, ripped open his chest cavity, tore out some blood clots and said “yea hes dead” within like 3 minutes “
My Actual answers…….
Diet Pepsi.
A Owl, they live in the country and mind their own business
Bruce Willis cause he doesnt seem to take himself too seriously. YippyKiYay….
Doesn’t that happen pretty much daily in a Detroit-area ER?
I think it was the speed with which the entire thing happened. I don’t know also if she’s always assigned to the trauma cases. She could be following the doc around who is checking for UTIs and EEE.
She’s always in the ER. but maybe they wait a bit before they assign them to doctors who are handing more complicated cases?
Isn’t EEE the sound you make when you have a UTI?
Man, the whole Hong Kong situation is really ripping the masks off American businesses. Anyone who dares to criticize the Chinese government finds themselves facing the wrath of our corporate overlords.
Must’ve been a hella good shoot ballistically. They can do amazing shit with GSW’s nowadays.
Just got email from Director saying my boss is now the acting Security Director for the company along with his regular duties…..interesting…
The commenters at Insty are having a field day.

Maybe, just maybe, it wasn’t a good idea to enter into deep economic intimacy with a massive totalitarian slave state.
“staring into the abyss,” etc., and so on.
The idea that we’d somehow nobly guide them into economic and political freedom while reaping the benefits of cheap labor has been put to lie.
Time to cut ties.
Used to be that we sent China dollars and they sent us cheap shit for WalMart shelves.
The dollars were worthless, so we won that round. Time to leave the casino.
We’re going to pay. Just depends when.
Eventually the slaves will want to be free.
Used to be that we sent China dollars and they sent us cheap shit for WalMart shelves.

I’ve never bought that argument. The dollars were always worth something, at least to the Chinese. The question is, what were they worth, and why? The free-trade uber alles folks could never properly answer that, because if they did it would lead to the conclusion that we shouldn’t have free trade with China.
So much of fundamental industry has moved to China… they’ve literally seized the means of production on a global scale. It would take a generation to get it back, assuming you could convince a millennial to quit their web start-up and become a middle manager at a steel mill.
Some of it has already left China. Just saying.
The dollars got smaller the longer they held them — that’s incontrovertible — so the only thing to do was buy things sold for dollars. The hope was that it would be US products (and it was to an extent, corn and pork and coal), but it would appear that a lot of it was congressional and corporate influence.
That’s my point: the dollars weren’t worthless, they had value to the Chinese to buy certain U.S. products, but also to buy influence both at here and abroad. But once you acknowledge that reality of the latter, then the question becomes whether we should continue to enable them to do so.
ooo we’ve got a live one in the Argument Room!
Hell, of course the Chinese use US taxpayer dollars to lobby against them in Washington. So does everybody else, it seems.
Proving once again, the spigot needs to be cut off. I’m sick of being strangled at my own expense.
Doesn’t matter how zippy the turbo VW is. There’s nothing like driving a 4WD V8 Truck!

They’ve been exporting America’s wealth for years, and profiting off of it.
Lots of analysis on theconservativetreehouse.com I don’t know how accurate they are, but they seem to do a good job with the economic aspects.
Also, everybody is freaking out because Trump is pointing out exactly how the politicians are getting rich off of the influence peddling.

My mom’s shower is leaking. Worst case scenario is that the shower pan needs to be replaced.
Today she got a $32,000 quote.
Is that for a new mobile home to go around her new bathroom?
I don’t know what my former landlady paid for the bathroom reno at our last house, it had old tile around an old tub that had pulled away from the wall and leaked with every shower. Pretty sure it wasn’t 32K.
Contractors see a little old lady and swing for the fence.
It is fairly common.
Someone else estimated 2 guys for 6 hours.
It was 30 to 40 thousand, not 32 thousand. Imagine that, a $10k swing! That whole thing pissed me off so badly. I told her that from now on when she ever needs work done, Scott should be there with her for the quote. No way that POS would have pulled that crap if her son were standing next to her.
She told me she was so upset about the supposed cost of this repair, she was missing sleep. Grrrrrr…..
I hate that. Unscrupulous garage owners used to pull that on Mrs Jay. She would give them my card (General Manager of Advance Auto) and the bid would go down.

I read that one aloud to Mr. RFH, good job.
Kudos for a good season RFH
Yeah, Jay, here I was looking forward to coming home and watching the Braves game, and I ended up working overtime and not being in much of a rush.
Oso, now the front office can focus on whether they are going to ban the chop or not. Phbtfthtt.
That lasted, umm, none at all.
Hellsley was approached with the question, not sure how irritated he is by it.
“I just watched a trauma patient come in with a gun shot wound to the chest, an acute care surgeon came in, ripped open his chest cavity, tore out some blood clots and said “yea hes dead” within like 3 minutes “

Only saw that a couple of times as an intern. We mostly got blunt trauma not penetrating trauma. By the time the rib spreaders came out it was mainly to give the senior resident a chance to try the technique in case they would need to do it on their own in the future. That must have been equal parts fascinating and horrifying for Hannah.
See, they jinxed themselves the same way they did when they took Chief Noc-a-homa out.
Some guy that used to be here posted the link on Twitface about the Braves front office caving on the tomahawk chop. Undy Arsitty. H2 on twitface.
Good ole Undy.
Haven’t seen him in a while,
Ha! Pepe thinks I can be lured by balloons and Doxie pupper video.
Didn’t even need balloons.

Breakroom philosophy was all about allergens. People freaking about my multiple allergies. We recently dropped a demo to an nut allergy. he was drawing two paychecks for working the MIDDLE.
I missed that Phil Niekro threw the first pitch. Should have kept him in the game.
Co-worker’s daughter has a nut allergy. She has never had a doughnut or a bagel because her mother is so afraid of nut contamination in the bakeries.
