Friday Ephemera (795)
It did not go entirely to plan. || Totally normal. || Itsy-bitsy. || Mrs Critchfield has a backyard business, 1953. || On the Batman effect. || Today’s words are body language. || Boasting of overcharging people based on their race. || Boob correction and other minor fixes. || Or maybe you could use a good moisturiser. || The more, the merrier. || The woman who moved her house 100 miles, 1975. || If size impresses you. (h/t, Elephants Gerald) || Chunky snow. || Incoming. || She has a racist chair. || On stealing $20, at knifepoint. || On deportations and legal creep. || A lively discussion regarding pizza – and $1. || The unspanked at large. || Puzzled look. || Coping. || Safety first. || Four Guineas a week and free hot water. || And finally, it’s waterproof, super-handy, and the edges are adhesive.

And in context of thing stolen from Ace, and previously mentioned personality tests, if I were a villainous dictator type I would be Herman Goering. Hey, you can do worse. Gotta love the quote.
Added: In fact after some further research, going forward I would like to be addressed as Der Dicke.

I’m getting some incoming traffic from Facebook, but as I don’t have a Facebook account, I can’t see what it is.
See, this is why I should be given godlike powers.
It might be from here, based on a hasty google search. Just a collection of links without any commentary at all.
Does your trackback info give URL’s of the originators?
Yes, usually, but not for Facebook.
[ Waits for freakish lab mishap, exposure to cosmic rays, etc. ]
Thanks, by the way.
There are many reasons why Facebook is called Fecesbook.
Police officer: You have drugs in your pants.
Drug dealer: These aren’t even my pants.
Beware the black face of white supremacy.
The one I most vividly recall, from an episode of Cops, “This isn’t my bra.”

I did that dictator personality test and came out as Mao Tse-Tung. Apparently this means I’m barbed and acerbic in addressing people. Well, I did once have a girlfriend named Barbie, and I once visited Serbia, so it’s pretty close.
