Hello there imaginary friends.
No one needs to hear me talk this week. So I’m not gonna. Well not much at least.
For the most part it seems all of us are holding our own (no pun intended). And I’m happy for that. I wish all of you and yours the very best of course. And I hope when all of this passes I’ll be able to see youse eye to eye again soon.
There are no sports to speak of so we’re just gonna skip that. Oh wait, maybe I was wrong…
Nope I was right. So no moar sports talk. Yes part of that is because I’m lazy and want to take a nap.
That also means it’s a weird-ish theme this week.
But Let’s dance.
But HEY HEY HEY HEY!!! HOW ‘BOUT A SONG????

Something Random
Ooops, hang on…

OK, sorry, I’m back.
As I was typing this out the phone rang. Robocaller. Thought once again I’d be stupid enough to give them my credit card information. I always ask them certain questions. Which questions I ask depends upon what mood I’m in. But this time I asked where they were located?
Liar on my phone: Atlanta, Georgia.
Me: Hehehehe…. Now I gotcha I thought. So I asked…. “What major Interstate Highway runs straight through Atlanta north to south?”
LOMP: I don’t know that.
Me: Then how do you get to work? And do you think I’m stupid enough to give my financial information to some jerkoff who is in a calling center in Pakistan? Get a real job.
LOMP: Fuck you. [click]
I don’t know why I bother screwing with these people but it just amuses me. When I can get them to curse me out? Or lose their temper so much that they tell me they want to come fuck my wife or my daughter (happens more often than you’d think). Well good luck with that dicknose. I don’t have either. I once had one tell me he was going to come fuck my mother. I laughed because my mother would kill his ass in a heartbeat.
I’d actually kinda like to see that truth be told.
And yes, that is me on the right. I’m working that ‘Fro goddammit.
But seriously, scams are ramping up. Please remember that banks and credit card companies will not call and ask you for your information. Guard yourselves against that.

OK, Now Some Sexy

Have a nice weekend everyone. Stay safe.

Caring about stuff is stupid. Here are some tits.

Helen Mirren, however, is fantastic in ‘Anna’
Helen Mirren is fantastic.
FIFY
You’re not wrong
There are still shots from certain movies that I am not allowed to post here. That woman, daaaaamn!
I learned today that the Scorchers only recorded this song because the lead singer told the guitarist that it was an original, and not a Bob Dylan cover, because otherwise the guitarist wouldn’t have played it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eyv6TWeJu0Y
It’s a kickass song, but that story makes it even better.
Eso eso
Is that “The Attack of the David Nivens”?
My all-time baseball tournament continues, with the ’63 Dodgers sending Sandy Koufax to the mound to teach a lesson to those cheating 2007 Astros in the Jack Buck Regional.
I probably should have DQ’s the Astros, but I had a rule about at least one entry per franchise, and we can’t abandon the rule of law unless Trump decides it’s cool.
What year did you use for the Mariners? 95?
’01. They’re the 7 seed in the Jack Buck Regional, set to take on the 1966 Orioles.
You know what’s not fun?
Having to explain to people that just because you were at the hospital for a reason other than covid.
Fucking kidney stones. I’ve had em before, this one was particularly bad, fucking needed morphine. Doctor says it’s too much soda, shouldn’t be getting stones at my age, but I’ve drastically cut down on that. I blame my bad genetics. Mom was always having those, and won’t touch anything carbonated.
Anyways. Here’s some sexy Friday in spirit.
I’m sorry, but this is a man-focused sexy Friday
You shut up.
My dad had his first kidney stone when I was seven or eight years old, it freaked me the fuck out to see my hero (he wasn’t James Bond or a secret agent, but a military intelligence officer at least, and I’m an only child) actually crying in pain. He must have been 29 or 30 years old. He had several more over the years. Glad I didn’t inherit that particular genetic trait.
My dad literally had his first one last summer. I had 2 before I turned 30. He refused to take my advice on it.
After taking my 4th shower in about 2 hours, as direct hot water was the only thing to subside it.
My dad was real Frank about not going to the hospital. Dropped me off in front and waited outside. Seems smart till you realize I could barely walk. Like they could have signed us in through car window, but nope I had to take the long walk.
‘Anna’ is on HBO. I liked it better in 1993, when it was called ‘Point of No Return’ and had Bridget Fonda fucking up canned ravioli or some shit.
Or the original series of “La Femme Nikita,” with Peta Wilson kicking ass and not bothering to take names.
That too.
The original movie La Femme Nikita was really good IMO. Agreed on that show.
Oh, I forgot about this one from last night.
if she was at your house last night and you forgot about it you really need to go to the ER and get your massive head injury checked out.
I have a ton of photos I’ve downloaded from Instagram over the last week, and upon reflecting which ones to share, I have concluded they are almost all shit.
Seriously, Rachel. If I wanted to be lectured by a lesbian on the verge of tears while questioning everything she had done that had led her to this point I’d have paid a lot more attention in grade school gym class.
If all the east Asian textile factories weren’t shut down, I’d put that on a banner.
She’s a Red Scare Russiagate grifter. She can get fucked sideways.
Why are you watching? While I agree with many of her points I cannot stand watching her and don’t. That actually goes with most talking heads.
She came on when I turned the TV on. I put on MSNBC during the day for updates, generally question every decision I’ve ever made within 5-10 minutes, then turn the TV off and start drinking.
SOMEBODY IS MAKING HORATIO WATCH IT!! HE IS DUCT-TAPED TO A CHAIR!!
*Apparently with one hand free on the keyboard.
BUT STILL!
I don’t bother with turning the TV on, I just go straight to the drinking. I get enough outrage just looking at my Websites of Dissent during the day.
A lot of people try to draw an equivalence between MSNBC and Fox News, and I generally reject it. Fox is willing to tell flat-out lies. It has no shame at all.
But one thing there is in common is that people watch them expressly for the purpose of getting riled up. I can tell which of my friends has been watching too much Maddow/O’Donnell/etc. by the increasingly angry tone of their texts. And it’s like, hey, I agree with the substance of all of your points, but — well, I agree with all of your points, so why are you yelling at me so to speak? If your outrage at Trump is fueling you to volunteer for get out the vote efforts or to donate money to the Dems, great. If it’s fueling you to write angry texts to like-minded friends, then… maybe you should chill, for your own mental health?
Sorry, got a little off-track there. Basically: Maddow is fine in my book, but you have to limit your exposure for your own sake.
It’s now news, it’s just commentary that I happen to agree with. But she’s an over-the-top sensationalist.
For straight news on cable I go to BBC America. It’s so newsy it’s boring.
If they wanted anything to change, they wouldn’t be watching cable news at all.
Don’t they call that “snowballing” on Youporn?
Is that the Captain America Chris Evans? Doesn’t he have a staff member to walk his dog?
Based on some snippets of interviews it seems like he actually loves the dogs. Can’t blame him on that one.
Agree 100%. My old girl has become quite annoying as the days pass, and some days it’s like “Off to your final vet visit tomorrow,” but then she has a good day, and I’m like, “Stay of execution, at least till we have to go back to the office.” Poor old girl.
Sorry, man. I’m still getting over my last pooch. I will get out and get another here sometime. Hope she goes peacefully.
Again, fucking kill me. She is a combination of retarded and Keith Richards.
Wait; Kieth is cool….. and made it through a heroin addiction like a champ.
I’m sure Rachel Maddow is a lovely person and smart reporter, but I will be goddamned if I spend an hour watching her try not to break out into braying sobs every time she mentions that people have died in a pandemic.
I’m legit surprised she hasn’t been hospitalized for dehydration.
Oook.
On all call with my wife’s family. My mother in law just defended the assholes in Minnesota protesting. I am about ot go on a kill spree. how can one fucking person be so fucking retarded?
i mean
This man needs to be institutionalized.
Instead, he’s going to get re-elected.
Or seize power like a Central or South American strongman. But he’s really too stupid to even do that competently.
He was too lazy to do it to Venezuela, ffs
I rather enjoyed this piece.

As a follow up question, how can so many people be so fucking retarded? Perhaps you can suggest to her that if it’s such a non-threat, maybe she can volunteer at the local hospital to help out when the bodies begin to pile up. I’m sure the candy-stripers would welcome the assistance when it comes time to move the corpses down to the basement incinerator, and obviously there’s no danger, according to FOXNews and OANN world.
It’s not complicated, but explaining it would make me sound even more insane that I am
Because they are selfish cunts with no regard for the lives of others and, in many cases, their own.
There is no negotiating with these terrorists.
Sephiroth as a Powerman 5000 rip-off
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdV_bzJgRxE
Comedy wet is like comedy boner.
Much ado about nothing, eh?
Gotta think a lot of Sephiroth cosplay is being repurposed as Geralt cosplay and then immediately again as Sephiroth cosplay this year.
/nods knowingly
//whispers off stage “Guys! Guys! What the fuck is he talking about?”
“Is this the rebar pilfered from the other project?”
I bet that fucker tips over the Porta-Potties too.
I started playing the Mad Max game on PS4, and I gotta say it has been hilarious and fun so far. The opening scene involves you stabbing a running chainsaw on the end of a staff through a Warlord’s fivehead, and it still not killing him.

Kinda cool as a preview of the future that Immortan Don is running our country today.
*Sprays face with Cheez Whiz*
“I live! I die! I die again, this time from COVID 19!!!”
It’s a very good game, with about zero happiness from start to finish. Very on brand.
Mean Girls is my Star Wars.
Kevin Gnapoor: dream son-in-law
Shame walk the next day, bad hangover, etc.
I just finished “Uncut Gems”. Gonna guess the pitch was “an R-Rated ‘Bad Lieutenant’”.
I got halfway through it and didn’t pick it back up. That movie made me stress the fuck out.
I found the first hour tedious and the rest was assessing if I had better plans. ??
Noted. Being a big Kevin Garnet fan, I think I got what I wanted out of it.
This was the only The Bad Lieutenant IMO.

Yeah, I knew about that, just being obtuse. Nic Cage will never measure up to Keitel.
Agreed. He was good early under great directors, but the hair implant standard Nic Cage Character (TM) sucks.

FF7R down. Looking forward to a whole new generation of kids using screennames like xSephirothx and such.
Cloud vs. Sephiroth could really just be its own genre at this point
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ws7BeK6DS0
All I’m going to say on the topic.
Final Fantasy 6 is the greatest video game ever made, and you can’t blame them for sticking with what works. Of course, Sephiroth’s lore gets super wacky compared to Kefka, but he doesn’t succeed in blowing up the world, which definitely counts against him.
Well you’re definitely right there. My hate for 7 is mostly that the majority of its fanboys never played 6 and find it very overrated by comparison. I’m also a big Wild Arms fan and hate that people call 7 the first 3D RPG.
Fun fact: I have a picture I took with a Cloud cosplayer at Comic Con a decade ago where I’m holding a sign reading “Final Fantasy VII Sucks” and him realizing what it said as the picture was taken. It’s very cherished.
FF7 really came off the rails at the end, but death, taxes, square rushing production, etc. Otherwise, it belongs right up there with 6. Came out in NA a week after I turned 14, after I’d spent my middle school years playing 6, and I’m not going to pretend that for all my making fun of people for idolizing it in high school that I didn’t play it through probably 5 or 6 times. Says something that for all they tried to shove Lightning down our throats for 5 years, they couldn’t come close to knocking the big fuck off sword boys off their pedestal.
One-Winged Angel… at church?

That fucking description
NO ONE DENIES THIS!
As a high school friend once told me, “It’s only gay if the balls touch.”
AHAHAHAHABAVABA
In the Navy, we’d say “It’s not gay if you’re underway.”
I bet he gets lucky.
tWBS, you may enjoy this guys youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCm22FAXZMw1BaWeFszZxUKw
Makes sense actually, with nothing else on, I’m watching the WNBA Draft. Which is kinda lady-gay.
Another one I saw at the base theater, Fort George G. Meade, MD. Had the comic too. I think James Franciscus was partial inspiration for Troy McClure.
And Oscar, of course. What can I say. I’m weak for the classics.
Dude(s)
I wish you would stop body-shaming me with all these pictures of virile young men.
This guy too
Nice post. Could use some Ricky Martin
