Why is a dog’s sound called a “bark” instead of an “ark?”  Dogs don’t make a “b” sound when they ark. 

thats an onomatopoeia.  one of the coolest words in the language.

A little background. I'm 50, have a relatively youthful face, and a head full of grey / white hair.

 

So I went to our LA office. I don't have a key, so need to sign in at the security desk. The 2 guys at the security desk look up and start talking about my hair. Amongst the comments:

"Damn, that's some good looking hair"    Thanks?

"Do you dye it or is it natural?"     It's natural.

"Have you ever gotten compliments?"     Yeah, over the years.

"Any from young women? Because I bet they'll your hair."     Not really, no sugar babies have approached me to be their daddy.

"Aw man, you need to step up your game with the young ladies."     My wife will kill me if I stepped up anything.

 

Thought that was a funny exchange, especially the last parts. I'm ugly, maybe a 5 on good day, but I got my hair going on for me. Which is nice.

I was at a pretty decent restaurant.   Went to the bathroom to take a piss.   Doing my thing and I turn around and this dude is right behind me.  Mind you there’s two open toilets but he’s waiting for the stall.  Are you not supposed to pee in the toilet?  It was awkward and creepy

Was this the guy?

might be the greatest paragraph on wikipedia:

Quote

There has been social media debate over the precise definition of sandwich, specifically whether a hot dog or open sandwich can be categorized as such. In the United States, the Department of Agriculture and the Food and Drug Administration are the responsible agencies for protecting the definition of sandwich. The USDA uses the definition, "at least 35% cooked meat and no more than 50% bread" for closed sandwiches, and "at least 50% cooked meat" for open sandwiches.[4] However, the same USDA manual determines the burritos and fajitas are "sandwich-like", and frankfurters are "sandwich type", while stromboli is explicitly excluded. In Britain, the British Sandwich Association defines a sandwich as "any form of bread with a filling, generally assembled cold"; a definition which includes wraps and bagels, but potentially excludes dishes assembled and served hot, such as burgers.[5]

Well dropping your pants and underwear to your ankles while at the urinal does seem a little like an invitation.

I ran into the dumbest employee at Home Depot today.

I went in to get baseboards for the renovation. 2 each 7’ boards. 2 each 6’ boards. The 7’ boards are clearly the same length, but he measured both of them to be sure. He then measured both 6’ boards…

Then he did the math: 2 x 7 = 14.   2 x 6 = 12.

14 + 12 = …  he pulls out his phone to add those up because he didn’t trust me when I said it’s 26.

 

I guess if my brain ever regress to an 8 year old state, I can still get a job at Home Depot

Had a dream last night that I got picked up by two tatted up biker chicks.

I'm in their apartment trying figure how to instigate a threesome. 

They start lezzing out and I'm just watching them, and one of them yells to me (in the most redneck voice - think Teeter from Yellowstone) "What'urrr you, STOOpid? Get da fuuck in here!"

So I did as I was told. It smelled like Jack Daniels, Skoal, and an old baseball cap.

The idea of ferris wheels being tourist attractions is so fucking stupid. 
 

That goes not just for London but many other big cities too - which already have things more significant and interesting than a dumb amusement ride. 
 

Ooooh big hoop thing. Whoopee.

All that remains of the Tropicana…in just a little over 24 hours these two towers will be a pile of rubble.

I think robins are coming through again on their way South?  Those pretty birds last spring, now look rough.  Think of the hot girl from high school who always had that dark tan.  You see her thirty years later and think, what the fuck happened to her?

Grackles always look like that. Drunk, methed-out bums with feathers missing and one eye, hanging out in the parking lot of Walmart.

I'm still pissed at my beloved deceased dad because he could look at my algebra problems in high school and tell me the answers off the top of his head😡

Today I learned that exotic, invasive iguanas are a huge problem in Florida. Escaped/released pets have bred their way to being an ecological disaster. 

So Florida has allowed people to kill iguanas whenever they see them. Of course PETA is totally against it. 

I also learned that some people are eating the iguanas.

They say the plastic straws strangle sea turtles. Now I have to go out and choke them one at a time. 

 

On that note, the contractor doing work on our place had hens, but now that he's also doing work on his place, gave them away, including two in our backyard.

We now have a huge pot of chicken broth and one very upset chicken looking through the back window wondering why her buddy never came back outside.

In SoCal, there's a few flocks of wild parrots. Same root cause.

My dad is 75. Around five years ago he discovered voice-to-text and he never looked back. 
If we read his texts really fast and out loud, we can usually understand him. ❤️

 

My Dad's dyslexic, so he's been trying to make speech to text work since the 1990s. Once in a while, I'll get a text from him and you'll see a common speech to text typo. But it really helps him out.

First time Siri started talking without prompting to me on my cell phone years ago, I told it “Siri, shut the fuck up”. 
Haven’t heard a peep out of it ever since then, thankfully.

meanwhile that bitch has been recording you ever since. Some call center in India keeps getting the ravings of a pissed off dude.
