Here we are at incarnation Seven of this delightful blurty thread.


From the first version: Look!!!! Another blurt thread!!! Like it, or trash it, or whatever. Caring what you do is for pussies.

And the second: The Semi-Consolidated Leakage Thread, round two. It seems we didn't sneak the old one past management. Piffle!!! As before, it's a blurt thread, just not one of the ones that the "cool kids" use. Social acceptance is relative, it seems. Like it, or trash it, or whatever. Caring what you do is for pussies. Pictures of hawt wenches, hawt cars, and random roadkill - suit yourself. Management's rules apply.

And the fourth: Allah damn right. Okay, we have like 6 posts left on the old thread, so here's this one ahready, so we don't get ambushed when the Nazi minions report it . . . because they can. Cars, sarcasm, ramblings, weasels, asses-n-tits, Harleys, guns - lots of guns - and ammo, too -


So one should have Teh Point by now. Blurt, whatever, but our usual topics are . . . diff'runt, maybe. Because caring is still for pussies.


And we all know how intensely that Jesus hates a pussy . . . .

The old is is already reported to the harpy in charge, which is another stroke of Pure Genius.


I wonder how many Mensa members posted in it . . . . :rolleyes:


Did I leave Sarcasm out of the opening blurb? Pity that.


Spiritual matters are difficult to explain because you must live with them in order to fully understand them.

Perhaps for version 8, we want to mock Allah and the Gawd deniers in a very serious and hard-hitting proselytizing kind of way.


By right, mock Allah - fuck a big bunch of Islamist Hell.


Speaking of which, it's past time to light some josh for the morning meditations . . . .

Looks like the rain out there to start the day.


Hell, it's the weekend and I'm off, so what in diddle fuck else is it going to do?


Got four daze off next weekend. Have a sleep study to participate in.


I wonder if I'll get one of those way cool throw-back jet pilot's air mask thingies . . . . :rolleyes:

Sleep study?


Surprise, we get rain today too, again, as always...


Saw my first hummer at the feeder yesterday.
Looked like a female, I didn't see a red ring.
She looked pretty rough too.

We're probably just a way station at this point,
but I hope she gets a good rest and plenty to eat
before movin' on up (to the north side)...
 
Humans float - kinda.


So, maybe.


I dunno - ask someone with tits.

In one form or another, all tits are paid for.



Does that make me a cynic?



The term I would pick is "realist."

Jesus paid for them.



Or their former pimp did . . . .



:rolleyes:

Here's a good question for this morning. Something to offer for thought, but not for trolls
(that's why 'here')...


Caprock Academy, an academically accelerated charter school in Grand Junction, Colo., has the generous policy of giving every student in literature classes new copies of every text studied. (In neighboring public schools, the books are typically loaned to students and must be returned unmarked.) The intent is that Caprock students, many of whom could not otherwise afford to buy the books, begin to build their own personal libraries of great literature and become lifelong readers. The policy also enables students to annotate the texts.

Many students cherish the books and take good care of them, but some do not. In the spring, on the last day of school, one can walk down the hall and find discarded texts on the floor by the lockers and crammed in the big trash cans at the end of the hallways. The books are tossed amongst the flotsam and jetsam students have emptied out of their lockers in preparation for summer break. Some have broken spines and torn pages. Other copies are almost in pristine condition. The high-school English teachers call these books “orphans,” and we rescue them from the trash. What is interesting, however, is which books get thrown out.

Caprock Academy offers a classical education, and students are given approximately six books a year in core literature classes. For example, freshmen read The Epic of Gilgamesh, Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey, Sophocles’ Three Theban Plays, Hesiod’s Theogony and Works and Days, and Aeschylus’ Oresteia. They also study Virgil’s Aeneid in Latin I.

Although the evidence is anecdotal and fluctuates a bit year to year, certain books appear in the trash with greater regularity than others. Emerson’s Essays and Poems, Hesiod’s Theogony and Works and Days, Virgil’s Aeneid, Milton’s Paradise Lost, and Stowe’s Uncle Tom’s Cabin seem to get orphaned more than most — four to seven copies of each out of roughly 40 students per grade level. To be sure, Homer’s epic poems are thrown out as well, but not in the numbers one might expect. Many students like and keep their copies of The Iliad. This begets the questions how — and why — does Homer’s 3,000-year-old epic poem speak to Generation Z?
