Anytime boys... I'm just kicking myself this morning (as I posted in SS) that I/we forgot to take a flip-the-bird pic.

No need to start a new thread, so I'll just bump the hell out of this one - again, with my annual gift to every DTF'r.


Let the airing of grievances begin.  No feats of strength though ... I'm physically distancing from everyone this year.   :lol :|

I WISH I could have that.  Bears, though.  The guy who used to own my house is the scourge of the neighborhood because he fed the bears that would come around.  I don't want to be that guy.  :)

I bought two of these for my then future wife back in 2000, just before I moved to Baltimore.  Brian Billick must have made a few thousand from that motivational ploy that year, and the years that followed.

My airing of grievances right now would be that my wife, after breaking her left ankle last year, broke her right wrist on an uneven sidewalk doing a community function because someone didn't show up to do it.   :censored  The surgery didn't go so well initially, but now it seems everything is set (pun intended).

I will say, that unlike last year at the emergency unit with 26 people around, some unmasked, and a thirteen hour ordeal before she was sent home, this year was different.  We're 'boosted', all were masked, and she was home four hours later on the day of the incident.

Other grievances in regards to others' actions would be too much to post here.  No 'feats of strength' desired ;)
...going along with Dragon Attack's Queen thread has been like taking a free class in Queen knowledge. Where else are you gonna find info like that?!

Joyous Festivus to one and all!

My chief grievances are all COVID related, and probably bear no further repeating.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

I don't get it.
Par for the course
I don't even know what Festivus is.
Still par for the course

FFS, mrs.jingls has never watched an episode of Seinfeld, and SHE gets it.  If he wanted to get it, he would ... just like putting carts away.  After three + years, it's a pretty clear sign that he doesn't want to get "it".  Basically, not getting "it" is life's little shopping cart for Tim.  :lol :lol 

It's like that Abe Simpson bit ... "I used to be with "it", now what I'm with, isn't "it""

Except Time was never "with it".   :rollin :rollin
