No ifs, ands, but butts. Awful offal out of the Oval Office - sweet tweet retreat. Is this a Rump roast to the Stars (soon to be) behind Bars replacing the missing Trump steaks? Is Kimmy auditioning for Melania/Melanie's place? that'd make Kanye one big sport or 1 big suckah (bet it pleases Donny's white base - taking back 1 of our women, even though under normal circumstances that Rose Garden wall'd keep out Lebanese refugees from LA too).
And btw, who knew "Baby got Back (but Trump got a hairpiece)" would be an anthem for the Z-Gen or what's left of Gen Y. Life's full of (unwanted) surprises.
(and none of this makes me laugh like "Kim Thong Un" - I'm jealous. But imagine one of these 50 foot tall big boys in the DMZ - Trump's version of détente deserves a Nobel, or at least a Michelin star... okay, a Razzie then)

Sigh, betcha you think it's just a Southern thing, but the Big Boy parking lot on the Southwest side of Milwaukee was where we few dopers ("freaks") hung out away from our lower middle class surburban high school. When we didn't have time to hitchhike down to friendlier parts, that is. And as a child, when McDonald's was still a drive-up hamburger stand, it was the only place my parents ever took us "out to dinner." They had comic books for the kids, which I really looked forward to, I would read them while my mother yelled at my little brothers for fighting and spilling their milk. The burgers were fabulous.
Enough nostalgia.
I just can't get over laughing at the grin on Trump's face in the photo! It is otherwise indescribable.

Oh, so you thought I only did Southern, did you? What was that summer camp in Wisconsin I went to, where got stung by my first bumblebee... and those comic books, yep, about 20 per kid sitting in the back seat long enough to keep from fighting on the way home... yep, they had them everywhere back in those days, long before Denny's and IHop. And McDonalds was in low single digits? 2 billion? 3? good times before we worried about grease.

You must'a been messin' with a bumblebee, cause they don't sting less ya do. Honeybees'll get ya good, though, and lay on a hundred times a'hurt. Chase ya all cross the yard, they will! ;-)
Keep talk'in 'bout Micky D's and I'll have to do a link.

Blame the victim, eh?innocent, like now, never starts off good w "there I was sitting in a bar minding my own business". But still, twerent no honeybee - already knew abiut them. Big Black, like the band. And Mickey D's to Mickey's Big Mouths - a smooth transition.

Them big black one's, gotta watch 'em. (why does it seem I need to say I'm talkin' 'bout bees??) But they don't care much what you're doin', so long as you don't bump 'em. They bump pretty easy. So yeah, your own damn fault if you don't notice a fat, big-ass black bee claim'n its space, dude. Damn.

Yeah, I just wasn't very woke as a 4-year-old or whatever. That'll learn me.
So when this band came along, it restimulated all sorts of engrams. Memo to little self from your future: ....
