Saturday evening, that means links!

Oh, yeah.

Bowl season, as meaningless as it’s become with the playoffs, is still football. And my beloved Broncos fired their coach, promoted the DC, and blew out their final three opponents to end up in the Gronk Bowl. Too bad the starting qb and #1 receiver are already at other schools. I friggin’ hate the portal.

 

Links anyone?

 

A MOAB dropped on the Iranian Supreme Council would end all of this.

 

“Subtlety” is not in Florida Man’s lexicon.

 

That didn’t take long. But would it have been any better if it hadn’t been “gay” sex?

 

This is totes not bigotry.

 

Bidenomics…

    Maese-Czeropski, who appeared in a 2020 campaign video with Joe Biden, had shared his own statement on LinkedIn Friday night, insisting he’d never disrespect his workplace.

    He wrote: ‘This has been a difficult time for me, as I have been attacked for who I love to pursue a political agenda.

    ‘While some of my actions in the past have shown poor judgement, I love my job and would never disrespect my workplace.

    This is no different than having a few too many and copping a feel from that girl from Sales in the copy room at the office Christmas party. Can’t we all just look the other way, for the sake of the principals involved?

    • Aloysious

      This is clearly a case of out of control Republican pouncing Islamophobic climate change.

      And if we’re gonna go after the Mad Mullah’s… I would like send them some blue haired body positive Stop! Oil! activists.

    The plague caused all that homelessness.

    • rhywun

      You misspelled greedy landlords and stingy Republicans.

      • Chafed

        Didn’t they cause the plague?

    Adolf J Trump for President

    Former President Donald Trump doubled down on language condemned for its ties to White supremacist rhetoric, saying at a campaign event in New Hampshire on Saturday that immigrants are “poisoning the blood of our country.”

    The comments mark another instance of Trump using increasingly violent rhetoric in his campaign messaging. At his most recent campaign event in New Hampshire prior to his appearance Saturday, Trump used the word “vermin” to describe his political rivals, drawing broad condemnation, including from President Joe Biden, who likened his comments to “language you heard in Nazi Germany.”

    Trump told a crowd gathered in Durham, New Hampshire, on Saturday that immigrants “from all over the world” are “pouring into the country,” reiterating a phrase he used previously that sparked outcry from the Anti-Defamation League.

    The ADL should copyright all those dog whistles and collect royalties.

      I’d love to know what he actually said in context but I am too lazy to look.

      • The Hyperbole

        What I saw was his usual Incoherent word salad, you can find in it whatever you’re looking for.

    Waiting in the parking garage to get out, post TSO. Just chillin in the car poking around on our phones.

    They did a death metal version of “In the Hall of the Mountain King” and I suddenly got inspiration for my Krampus book and spewed out 1,000 words on my phone.

    • Spudalicious

      Nice.

    • hayeksplosives

      Nice!

      Glad you and your good luck charm hubby got a Christmas gift early.

    • Tonio

      W00t!

    • Aloysious

      Jelly.

    • Pat

      spewed out 1,000 words on my phone

      I have no idea how anyone can type at length on a touchscreen keyboard, so that alone is worthy of respect.

      • UnCivilServant

        She built the phone into a Commodore 64 chassis, so it has a full keyboard.

      • Pat

        Big if true.

  5. KK, Plump & Unfiltered

    Contest at 10pm ET, but feel free to join whenever

    • Mojeaux, font of all evil

      It’s gonna be another hour before we get out of this garage, so may join Zoom from the car again.

    • hayeksplosives

      Hey, KK, I’ll throw in a $25 Amazon e-gift cert to sweeten the pot!

      Seems to be a simple matter of sending a link to the email address of the winner.

      I’m good for it. 😊

    Which NYS thruway locations have Chick-fil-A? I’ve never seen them driving up I-87 to Lake Placid. And all those locations should already have multiple businesses (never mind most of them being closed during COVID). Definitely bias.

    • Lackadaisical

      I think on 90. Nevermind all the spots that close stupid early or open stupid late … Let’s go after the one popular spot.

      They pulled all sorts of shenanigans trying to keep them out of wny many years ago.

    • Not Adahn

      I87 is the Northway. I90 West of Albany is the Thruway

      • Not Adahn

        (This was part of what they taught in NEO when I came to work here).

        The thing I hatehatehate about the Thruway is that they’re doing their best to give the overpriced plazas a monopoly on food.

        On I87, the exits have those “food at this exit” indicators. On the thruway they do not.

    For our shotgunners:

    I’m seeing Federal FliteControl around (under the “LE” designation). Seems to be pretty available now. Not that cheap, but if you’ve been thinking you wanted some, now’s probably the time. BulkAmmo and Lucky Gunner both have it in stock.

  8. Fourscore

    I received a mysterious package from Amazon, addressed correctly but no acknowledgement of who had sent it. Fruit, other good things to eat. I queried those family members most suspected but all have denied it.

    I can’t believe it would be from a Glib but a lot of strange things go on around here. I want to thank the person that was nice enough to do that but no idea who it might be.

    I’ll wait until I get an email from someone, asking if I received an anonymous gift.

    • Sean

      No hot peppers. Wasn’t me.

    • R C Dean

      *looks around*

      Yeah, that was totally me!

      What did I send, again?

    • Pat

      Anonymous gift giving is one of the greatest pleasures in life, IMO. That said, it wasn’t me.

      • Fourscore

        That eliminates 3 of the usual suspects. Now I’m suspicious of all those that didn’t deny culpability

      • Aloysious

        Check for fingerprints. If there are none, that points to Uncivil. He wears gloves.

    “But would it have been any better if it hadn’t been “gay” sex?”
    Absolutely, I’d be able to beat off to it if it wasn’t…the disrespect of the institution that deserves no respect gets me hot as fuck but, considering the participants, I just can’t quite finish.

    • Sean

      Homophone.

      • Beau Knott

        ALOL

      • Stinky Wizzleteats

        You mean pressured into it but not thrilled about it or typo? If the former well done.

      • Tres Cool

        Oh deer!

    • R C Dean

      If it was hetero, the outrage would be undoubtedly be moderated by how hot the chick was.

      The fact that no one is saying ,”Yeah, but c’mon, look at the ass on that guy! I mean, who wouldn’t?” tells you that the soyboy bottom needs to hit the gym. And maybe eat a steak.

      You’re just not all that, bro.

      • kinnath

        How much ammo should a guy keep on hand?

        Asking for a friend.

      • The Bearded Hobbit

        I’d say 1000 rounds each of your primary rifle, pistol, shotgun, and .22.

        As a start.

      • R C Dean

        Sounds about right. I get twitchy below that as a par level for ammo inventory.

      • kinnath

        I am comfortably above that (except for the shotgun).

      • Gustave Lytton

        As many rounds as you might need and one more.

      • Sean

        “You don’t have enough if you ask that question.”

        -My friend

    If ass raping is disrespecting the Senate workspace then it has been going on largely unabated since 1788.

  11. R.J.

    Is that 10:00 Eastern, Central or Pie Time?

  12. JaimeRoberto (carnitas/spicy salsa)

    That guy should have been fired for having a hyphenated name.

    Link for the zoom?

      Scroll up to where it sez GLIBZOOM TACKY HOLIDAY ATTIRE CONTEST and go from there.

    “Subtlety” is not in Florida Man’s lexicon.

    I wondered how much damage Visine could do as a poison, thinking it probably wouldn’t be a great choice anyway. Turns out I was wrong:

    A debunked urban legend claims that a few drops of Visine will cause harmless but debilitating bouts of explosive diarrhea, similar to a laxative. However, symptoms of Visine’s active ingredient tetrahydrozoline hydrochloride can be severe, and can include:

    Dangerously low body temperature (hypothermia)
    Blurred vision
    Nausea and vomiting
    Difficulty breathing or cessation of breathing
    Elevated blood pressure (hypertension) followed by sudden low blood pressure (hypotension)
    Coma
    Seizures and tremors
    Death

    Oral ingestion of Visine warrants immediate medical attention or a call to a poison control center.

    The more you know

    • rhywun

      Yeah but how many gallons does it take?

      • Ted S.

        55?

    If gay sex was the only thing that happened in the senate chambers the world would be better off. Throw in a Mexican and some weed and this country would be libertarian!

  16. Mojeaux, font of all evil

    I may Zoom on the way home from the restaurant Dude and I are at.

  17. KK, Plump & Unfiltered

    Congrats Jimbo, winner of ugly Christmas sartorial splendor, in a very close vote

  18. whiz

    LOL, just saw a commercial for Michael’s that had an ugly Xmas sweater contest as its theme.

  19. Zwak says the real is not governable, but self-governing.

    God Damnit! I am packing up to go to the range tomorrow, and I cannot for the life of me remember where I put the case of Eley Match .22 I bought.

    • Sean

      Check your couch cushions.

  20. Beau Knott

    Good morning all!
    Some Jethro Tull, including the first of the holiday pieces.

    Broadsword.

    Ring Out Solstice Bells.

    Share and enjoy!

  21. Not Adahn

    Good morning!

    My best batch of duck hash yet for breakfast. I made sure the get the potatoes deeply browned and crispy before proceeding.

    • dontreadonme

      That was nicely done!

  22. Fourscore

    Good morning! Beautiful warm day. It’s been a great fall, looks like we’ll be having a brown Xmas, lakes still aren’t ready for ice fishermen.

    • Gender Traitor

      Good morning, 4(20), dontread, Sean, NA, and Beau!

  23. R.J.

    Who won the sweater contest?
