Imperial system all the way – Sunday evening thread no Litre

Evening,

As Litre is unable to wow and stun us with his wine knowledge, I decided to step up and do the open thread post, unfortunately for you and the English language.  There are no NFL games tonight and the dirtfootball game on ESPN is between two teams that are only involved with nation telecasts 95% of the time (fuck you MLB tv, please show more games that do not involve these two teams) and the leastest of lesser footy (MLS) has two games, there is fuck all for sports on the telly (I bet Telly Savalas head would have made a great projection screen).  So read a book, binge some great shows, get relaxed by, either the drink of your choice or other substances, listen to early YES through some great headphones, or binge eat all the Ben and Jerry’s in your freezer.  If you really, really are desperate for something to do, you could greatly confuse and terrify your families by actually paying attention to and interacting with them in a meaningful way.  Since the NFL season is getting ready to start, this might keep them from trying to demand your attention when it should be focused on the games and the kommenting.

Speaking of the NFL season and Kommenting, I would like to introduce the use of a new acronym in the DFO lexicon –  KUI or CUI, K(C)ommenting Under the Influence.  I know that we already have bourble, but that seems to be related to drinking bourbon or whiskey exclusively and I feel that freezer vodka enthusiasts and those of us who love to partake in edibles have been left out.  I like to think of the clubhouse as inclusive, unless you show your metaphorical ass by attacking or belittling another member (remember you can belittle someone’s member, just not the member).  And now that I have the necessary word count, I am out of here to make a blueberry pizza and maybe KUI later this evening.

Awaiting Hippo’s review.

King Hippo

Needs more friends obviously

rockingdog

Found a funny;

every ikea should have a Beast somewhere inside. such as a minotaur or a hostile bird or a dog

Brick Meathook

Is anybody out there?

Mr. Ayo

Have you finished Sunday Gravy yet?

yeah right

A note to future generations.
You’re not going to win the lottery.
There is no magical money that will save your ass.
The only way to keep viable is to spend within your means.
It’s not hard. It’s basic math.
Your phone has a calculator.

Don’t be stupid. The rest is up to you.

I’m not getting rid of the pcar no matter what you people say.

The funny thing is that when you’re young, it’s way, *way* easier to have fun without spending much money.

Dunstan

Look, those purchases at the liquor store today were necessities.

Be sure to live-blog your sponge bath from the hot nurse.

Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep

We have arrived in theeeeee Columbus Ohio. I keep asking if anyone remembers a Herodotus (who may or may not be an ancient Greek) or a magical pony named Redshirt who was in theeeeeee band. No luck yet, but these Yankee folk is giving me plenty of personal space.

Try using my given name, Kirk Herbstreit.

Dunstan

Had some friends over paella, and they just left, leaving me with the crucial decision: keep drinking, or … never mind, I’ve answered my own question.

blaxabbath

Bet they paired well with a nice chianti….

Dunstan

Prepositions are pesky things.

Mr. Ayo

Not the Kay-Rod Cast I hope?

yeah right

I can give recently divorced suggestions.
I’m skilled at that shit.

litre_cola

Thank you for filling in, much appreciated. Other commitments came up all weekend.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I gave blood today!

I like to pretend that some of it ended up in Brick and I will soon have access to his dreams. Like in Nightmare on Elm Street but…wait, no, probably more like that Rick and Morty <i>Inception</i> episode.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Also, I thought to myself WWtWBSD while chatting with the foxy little medical technician. In the end, I did not end up doing what he would have done.

Dated her for a bit only to find out she is. BDSM QAnon member?

Brick Meathook

The young nurse who takes my vital signs is absolutely gorgeous and man is she built just right (boner joke here)

How much longer before you make your escape?

Brick Meathook

Tomorrow

yeah right

That’s a boner inducing image for sure.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Not sure if this helps, but what I have been doing lately to reduce clutter in the kitchen is to just toss stuff into a storage bin and put it in the garage. The Dr. Mrs. has yet to notice the absence of a single thing I’ve made disappear.

Mr. Ayo

Organize all 3 of her closets.

I find escalating is the best solution.

Horatio Cornblower

Mouth shut, move it back three days from now.

Start a controlled burn in the hoarders room.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I’m starting to feel guilty about making all those jokes about how all Joe Burrow’s talent was concentrated in his appendix.

That sounds delicious, but too much work for my current state of impairment. I’m going easy and quick here

Blueberry pizza? That sounds good. What goes into that?

ballsofsteelandfury

Wait, seriously you’re making a blueberry pizza?

Is that blueberry in the dough or as a topping?

ballsofsteelandfury

Also, to insult your member, you fuck that blueberry pizza with that dick ?
