The Thrill Of Mucus
I have a cold and am feeling less than my usual scintillating self. I am therefore declaring an open thread. You know the drill. Share links and bicker. And send biscuits.
The reheated series and greatest hits are there to be poked at.
How do I email jaffa cakes?

I was hoping for some of these, actually. I’ve heard they have healing properties.

Not parody.
Happy October!

Ohhhh those do look good. I have been able to find Hob Nobs and Tim Tams in supermarkets here in the States, but not those!
You need to set up a biscuit button on the site so we can send you some 😛
On second thought – you’d probably be inundated in minutes.

David, I suggest you load up the Scold-o-Mat 9000 with Vick’s.
RIP Jessye Norman, 1945-2019. A most magnificent voice indeed:

Again, I marvel at how much mucus the average human head can produce. I may keep it in labelled jars.
the average human head
And yours is above average?
I have been able to find Hob Nobs and Tim Tams in supermarkets here in the States…
The US Tim Tams are nowhere near as good as the real deal which can be had from these folks in Ohio who sell the real deal Arnotts from Oz. Try them, you’ll thank me later.
And yours is above average?
It’s not an unusual volume, you understand. I don’t have a comically misproportioned head. It’s just currently exuding a phenomenal amount of mucus. I ought to be dehydrated.
“I may keep it in labelled jars.”
As a dip for the other bar treats?

There’s a vacancy in the kitchen, if you’re interested.
Did you know that one can measure the size of one’s head by sticking it in a 5 gallon bucket, filling that bucket with water to the 5 gallon mark, removing one’s head, then seeing how much water is left in the bucket and subtraction that amount from 5 gallons? It’s science! It’s fun! And if one uses salt water, it can help with any sinus congestion one might have. Also, the male duckbill platypus has poison spurs on its hind legs. Ooh, and the drummer for Def Leppard’s only got one arm. This internet is a fascinating thing.

Don’t mix it up with the Hump Fat.
All they had to do was not be totally insane.
If you want to understand how the peach emoji has come to represent both the potential impeachment of President Trump and a butt, you must first look to the ancient Sumerians.
That’s an actual sentence. From the article. From the Washington Post. Knowledge is power. France is bacon. Stupid, stupid world.
People getting their rocks off in San Francisco.
A fair solution to homeless encampments in front of your home.

Also San Francisco, woke, just NIMBY.

When you need to talk about identity but don’t have one…
Clanton, AL, and Gaffney, SC, the two sexiest Sumerian towns in the South…
David, I meant above average in excellence. 🙂
Also San Francisco…
Sort of looks like a rainbow beanbag chair inside a human-sized litter box. But I’m betting that’s a rock.
…and Gaffney, SC…
Yes, Gaffney, SC home of the oddly erotic peach water tower. I see they have a bench below it for any one who may want to don a trench coat and, ahem, take in the sights, so to speak.
What?
re: Clanton, AL, and Gaffney, SC and the peach emoji: I just assumed they were all Allman Brothers fans…
“I am an empowered feminist, do not sexually objectify me.”
Also don’t click that link anywhere near work.
Don’t mix it up with the Hump Fat.
You could coat-tail Hump Fat’s premium branding.
Spreadable Hump Fat.
Hump Fat Lite.
I Can’t Believe It’s Not Hump Fat.

That was the first thing I thought of.
The best thing about the left is their firm grasp of science.
“I may keep it in labelled jars.”
When a friend did a long stint in hospital many years ago he noticed they had these jars neatly labelled ‘sputum’. It so impressed him that he used it in illustrations in later artworks.
Ever heard of the “cotton ceiling” ? Yeah, me either, but our favorite bicyclist will put us straight, or maybe not.
You might want to re-think those Tim Tams boys.
Ever heard of the “cotton ceiling” ?
Yep, a term used by male autogynephiles like McKinnon to excuse their attempts to force lesbians into heterosexual acts.
Toxic whiteness.

Where else but The Guardian ?
Well, OK, most other MSM, but according to the alluring Miss Williams, fitness will also make you (gasp) right wing.
We would be totally adrift in a Sargasso of ignorance without experts like zer to guide us.

Ahem.
I see I’m going to have to start taking attendance.
Like this place isn’t such a palimpsest of insanity one can’t miss one bit, Mr. Reheated Greatesthits…
By they way, the door to the regroover seems to be stuck.
The Thrill Of Mucus
Scene from Ghostbusters: “I’ve been slimed.”
[ Wipes nose, emits feeble hooting noise. ]
‘A vegan who says she was served a pork sausage roll that she thought was meat-free claims she has been “traumatized for life.”‘
https://www.dailywire.com/news/vegan-claims-sausage-roll-traumatized-her-for-life
she has been “traumatized for life.”
So, totally OK until told, but now “poisoned for life” (though she ate meat till two years ago).
a) Histrionic;
b) Looking to make a fast
buckpound;c) a total wackadoo;
d) a&b;
e) all of the above.
“My body is poisoned for life now, you know,”
Um, she’s only been vegan for 2 years…how’s that work?
It’s not only the British that are animal lovers.
Today in racism: your grocery store’s international food aisle.
Who the hell is this Chang chap (aside from being a millionaire restaurant owner), from Wiki…
I see where his resentment comes from, the hardscrabble back nine of the Arlington golf courses, the gang wars of Georgetown Prep, and the mean streets of Trinity College.
Of course our local international aisle features British, German, and Jewish sections, so you wypipo in those categories can cash in on the raycisism gravy train too, I guess.
I think I noted this here on this very site a year or more ago. Just why is the spaghetti and pizza and such with all the white people foods but if I need taco seasoning or soy sauce I need to go to the “international foods” section? And on top of that, the UK gets its own section OF AMERICAN FOODS. Really. Why are Heinz (a fine Pittsburgh company) beans in the extra-special-but-not-international UK section but Heinz ketchup is with the other white people foods? Hmmm? I use soy sauce to marinate my steaks, not just for take-out sushi. It’s an outrage, I say.
The aisles, he adds, are an echo of “1950s America, which was not a particularly good place to be, especially if you were Asian.”
If he thinks America was a bad place for Koreans in the 50s, I can’t wait ’til he finds out what Korea was like for Koreans in those days…
Come to think of it, his dad’s family wasn’t particularly kind to my uncles when they visited the peninsula, back in the early 50s.
