Ever just want to tear your hair out, or someone else's? If you cannot restore a sense of balance, you will run away from home? Just want to say some things without the constraints of staying on topic? Well, this thread is for you! If you just need a short break to let it all hang out, be a brat, then come on, you can do it. No holding back! Go for it, you can do it.
She asked what for - I said for cleaning your dirty bottom
So she looked at them, and parroted me word for word
Thank you for cleaning my dirty bottom
We still need to work on her saying it with sincerity
What full moon?
What are you tawking about?
Lol.
Blame it on the full moon
Meetup tonight to get it all out on the brat thread! Look forward to seeing absentee caregivers and past caregivers regaining their lives, posting here.
Love you all!
I messed up my now frequent appointments this morning, and missed one but rescheduled. I feel really bad that I was so bad in real-life!
Feeling badly.
The son replied that he could not help but don't plant the potatoes this year that is where i burried the 4 million
At 4 am the next morning a bus load of policemen arrived armed with shovels and began digging in the potato patch.
After a few hours they left empty handed.
The old man was very puzzled and contacted his son.
"Sorry Dad that was the best I could do from here so go plant those d*mn potatoes"
Chim chiminy, chim chiminy, chim chim churee........
I believe the wolf in red riding hood met the axe of the rescuing lumberjack, sans pictures of course.
If only the 3 little pigs could fly.
And why was it always Minnie tied to the railroad tracks, and not Mickey?
Ursula the Sea Witch was my role model - "well yes I've had the odd complaint but on the whole I've been a saint - !" What a gal! What an entrepreneur! What a realist!
Dino is furry because he's supposed to be friendly. But if they wanted to make him that friendly perhaps they shouldn't have made him T Rex shaped. Mind you they probably didn't expect literal-minded grandfathers to be left in charge...
Every little girl's fear is that the prince won't find her as she sweeps out the fireplace once again, as her rival step-sisters try on the glass slipper, almost breaking it.
And that, folks, is why we bring home the bacon, fry it up in the pan!
And why did the dino have fur?
Hilarious, the rabbit vs. dino story!
Seems you have the version where there were 3 pigs at the end, building the fire. But the original version has each pig #1 & 2 eaten by the wolf. The version I recall is that they ran to the 3rd pigs house of bricks and survived. My dH recalls the story was read at school, after first claiming he had never heard the story at all.
In later days, we have Mrs. Wolf bringing home the bacon, frying it up in the pan, because she
is W. o. m. a. n.!
I do try not to lap up stories about my ex husband's failings, but this was a classic - Son and DIL were sighing and eye-rolling over it at the weekend. Ex and (lovely) wife were visiting when Son and DIL heard piercing screams coming from the sitting room and rushed in to find 2 year old (today!) granddaughter sobbing over her cuddly toy rabbit and Ex with his hand behind his back looking guilty. They demanded an explanation, and he sheepishly produced the furry glove puppet dinosaur he was holding. It emerged that the play story had gone badly wrong, and no! Dino does NOT have rabbit for dinner!
As Daughter 1 would put it "Daddy, what were you *thinking*?"
There was a long running ad. campaign for Heineken beer that had the strapline "refreshes the parts that other beers cannot reach"; and back in the '80s one of the series featured a cartoon that opened with Mr Wolf exhausted and panting as he tried to blow down the brick house. He reaches for his Heineken, glugs it down, rolls up his sleeves and blasts the house to pieces - "thereby enabling Mr Wolf to bring home the bacon to Mrs Wolf" as the voiceover explained.
There were complaints to the Advertising Standards Association and it got withdrawn.
3rd pig built his house of bricks, and the big bad wolf could not huff and puff and blow his house down, not even by the hairs of his chinny chin chin. The end.
Everybody already plucked their chin hairs anyway, right?
At a loss here on how to proceed with respect for American Indigenous Peoples.
On one hand, there are cowboy movies still showing on t.v.
On the other hand, I must apologize for calling the other actors "Indians".
So now I am sorry for making a joke at all.
Maybe I should have said: Cowboys and other peoples on horseback.
However, I am sure the truth was never shown in the movies anyway, and these were actors, afterall.
How sorry is that?
I remember back in Los Angeles, I interviewed for a local office of a company that was a Japanese company. They seemed... surprised at me. Like they didn't understand how a woman would be their sales person. But, they gave me the interview, and I think I flubbed it, anyway. I liked the idea of the job because I wanted a reason to learn some conversational Japanese lol. I have a friend who lives in Japan now. He says if I want to teach English there, he could help me get a job. I find the idea of immersing in another culture very interesting. Life is short: why not live in multiple cultures? Much easier said than done, of course!
Ohayoo! Hai, genki desu. Sore wa 8:30am de aru. Anata wa?
Watashi wa yoi hi o sugosu koto nozomu!
ABB, I know practically nothing about my native language. We grew up speaking only in English. My dad, in his old age, was reverting back to his native tongue. Several times, we had major communication problems. He was forgetting English. I don't understand our language at all (very similar to Spanish). However, he was stationed in Japan and Germany. So sometimes, he would talk to me in those languages. I took Japanese classes in high school, majored it in college. I understand Japanese more than my native one... so dad and I would talk broken Japanese when he forgot English.
He would say jokingly about his body's itchiness (using a play on words): I'm very 'ITCHY-ni-san-shi-go'
(The Japanese count Ichi, Ni, San, Shi, Go, Roku, Nana, Hachi, ...)
His house was made of sticks. (would never have lasted the winter!).
He was also eaten by the big bad wolf.
It's okay...MsMadge is often speaking in another language, I understand!
Please don't say anything about a hat covering chin hairs....everybody knows where the chin hairs are. She will come around ok, once the smoke clears. Lol.
As for me....I lost my tweezers again...scissors, hair brush, vitamins, but they will show up by the time I really need them!
There is no evidence of Autumn here.
Let's ask Cwillie!
"Oh it's going to be a long, lonely summer"!
Unfortunately, the holiday has all the hotels full.
Hubs is at work.
I am juicing organic celery, eating blueberries.
It's 100 here and 112 in my hometown in California. Is Autumn coming soon?
