I’m guessing the reasoning for the staging on the truck is for ground isolation. I like the rope to angle the staging closer to the pole. The guy on the small aluminum ladder is probably the one that gets zapped, then the other guy laughs so hard he falls too. You might be a redneck if….
Wow, I didn’t see the rope at first. That makes it even worse, this is actually intentionally built like that… despite there being so many ways it can go wrong.
Well, that’s a first for me. I read all the way down to here before I realized I hadn’t even looked at the fail, and didn’t know what this comment meant. Weird. It better be good, now I have to scroll all the way up there.
Wait, was I supposed to look at it? All the speds at the bottom say nobody talks about the fail anyway, so I was going to see if I could get by with not bothering.
Thank god, I was wondering where that had got to.
Do you also have the shellacked hallibut and the red pen? Just wondering… ’cause I left them lying around here somewhere while I was away…
…I might have, err, used those all up already, Admiral. *hugs!*
I’m glad it’s still in Lunchbox’s pants, probably the safest place for it. Not to insinuate that nobody would dare go near LB’s crotch, of course…
*sends off a new shipment of red pens*
The innuendo machine has been difficult to fix because nobody seems to have the right spanner for those nuts. Now they’re all stripped.
Well, it seems many people, both male and female, have been trying to get into LB’s fire gear. He has fought them off valiantly but the job seems to wearing him down somewhat. Perhaps we could send it to the Large Hadron Collider peopel and let them use it as a Proton Beam target?
Yes, she was a bitch, but damn she was sooo hot and so magical like you had to ignore it even as the pain of your soul being dragged through broken dreams made you bleed more love than all the world’s kittens could purr back into you by enternity’s end.
Just the thought of her makes me want to cross stack small wooden blocks and yell “JENGA!” (whilst wearing nothing but a cowboy hat, but you don’t need to know that).
For no other reason than “moist” is, in my opinion, a repulsive, unpleasant word, I will use this space to ask: are anyone else’s comments being eaten quite often tonight by the apparently ravenous blogmonster?
It’s odd you say that: “moist” comes up often in my house as being an unsalivary word, something that had never occurred to me. However, have only noticed incorrect nesting today – no abducted posts.
Swearing is certainly established (culturally) as a (required) sin.
Cursing, however, is not.
The word “moist” did not subjectively qualify until recently (as either) whatsoever, lol!
There are entire websites dedicated to this word. Apparently thousands of people consider the word “moist” offensive. I, myself, think it is a lovely word.
This argues fruitfulness and liberal heart:
Hot, hot, and moist: this hand of yours requires
A sequester from liberty, fasting and prayer,
Much castigation, exercise devout;
For here’s a young and sweating devil here,
That commonly rebels. ‘Tis a good hand,
A frank one.
Say that upon the altar of her beauty
You sacrifice your tears, your sighs, your heart.
Write till your ink be dry, and with your tears
Moist it again, and frame some feeling line.
from O.Fr. moiste “damp,” from V.L. *muscidus “moldy,” also “wet,” from L. mucidus “slimy, moldy, musty,” from mucus “slime”, which in turn is from PIE base (s)meug- *”to slip, slippery, slime” (cf. L. emungere “to sneeze out, blow one’s nose,” mucere “be moldy or musty,” Gk. myssesthai “to blow the nose,” myxa “mucus,” mykes “fungus”).
If that’s what pleases, then good luck I suppose.
Realized possible misinterpretation only after I’d pulled the “trigger”; glad you didn’t catch it before the correction.
Methinks in thee some blessed spirit doth speak.
Her powerful sound within organ in peak;
Thy life is dear; for all that life can rate
Worth name of life in thee hath estimate;
Youth, beauty, wisdom, courage, all
That happiness and prime can happy call:
So make the choice of thy own time, for I,
With resolved patience, on thee still rely.
I do presume, sir, that you are not fallen
From the report that goes upon your goodness;
An therefore, goaded with most sharp occasions,
Which lay nice manners by, I put you to
The use of your own virtues, for the which
I shall continue thankful.
These are Government Type Maintenance Workers! They are changing a light bulb! Can’t you tell? A typical team of 5 guys: 1 supervising from afar, 1 lazy guy doing nothing but watching, 2 in danger of killing themselves, and 1 ready to turn on the power as soon as the top guy touches the socket! (“Hee hee! I shocked ol’ Bill agin!”)
*must be a joy-killer* They are trying to replace the bulb and cover on a high lamppost. The trouble is, the ladder they’re using seems to be compromised of several unsteady ladders, and moreover it’s based in a pickup truck. The fail is that it seems at any moment the ladders could come tumbling down.
The second half of your sentence sounds like the punchline to a story I tell about the time my brother tried to change a tire on my car after drinking a fifth of Crown.
“Hey Bubba, I saw these native folks on discovery channel do this funny thing with some stuff called bamboobs, I reckon if we got together some two by fours we could fix that thar busted light in the schoolyard.”

A haiku! Very nice. I’m not good at those.

Glad to see that my
wonderful idea has spread

Haiku wtf?
It’s 3 lines of words without rhymes and without sense, wooow! You haikus suck big time!
Et à propos, arrêtez de parler l’allemand sur un site anglais, bordel de merde!

I think that was French.
no, that was the translation of the french above.

it doesnt say that……….. it says “”"But not,

My gosh, then let the honey flow.
My, did I take something negative from that.
My French is not so sharp.
Haiku fail!
I prefer the more literal “Bordello of Sh!t.”

It is not too hard,

though it does take skill.
Another haiku…
What a wonderful new theme
For me to poop on.
Jack Mehoff likes gum
Mix in the spearmint flavor
Extra minty sperm
Just 3, 5, and 3
Does not a haiku make.
Elegance is key.
And all great poets
Should count syllables in poems.
Bucket is in order.
Hanging drapes, oh no!
A table, a backwards fall
Potato so deep…

Oh the never-ending shame
Mash for dinner.

Must gouge out potato eye

They’re not dead, they’re just pining for the fjords.
Eek, I hope it’s not the killer rabbit of Caerbannog!
‘Sokay, Loz. I’ve got the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch, just in case…
Thank god, I was wondering where that had got to.
Do you also have the shellacked hallibut and the red pen? Just wondering… ’cause I left them lying around here somewhere while I was away…
the shellacked halibut was used somewhat and may require more shellack, but the red pen was lost or a troll ate it.
Oh
it’s probably for the best I guess.
Who’s got the innuendo machine? It seems Ryannon and Mookie have taken custody of it…
What, you didn’t get the red pens I sent you for Christmas?
Welcome back.
*offers hug*
It’s still safely tucked away in Lunchbox’s pants
(it’s had to be repaired a couple of times due to overload…).
I’m glad it’s still in Lunchbox’s pants, probably the safest place for it. Not to insinuate that nobody would dare go near LB’s crotch, of course…
*sends off a new shipment of red pens*
The innuendo machine has been difficult to fix because nobody seems to have the right spanner for those nuts. Now they’re all stripped.
The red penis stuck in the copy machine, Loz.
*hides spanner behind back*
…What? Honestly, it’s more fun without it!
Well, it seems many people, both male and female, have been trying to get into LB’s fire gear. He has fought them off valiantly but the job seems to wearing him down somewhat. Perhaps we could send it to the Large Hadron Collider peopel and let them use it as a Proton Beam target?

Thanks Mookie, can always rely on you to produce the goods!
Mookie didn’t produce it but stored it.
I inspect the innuendo machine on occasion to make sure it is still functioining.
I hope you apply adequate lubrication.
All I have to do is talk dirty to it and the lubrication magically appears.

If they stack it too high, it’s gonna fold!

It’s definitely a flop, whatever it is.

And he doesn’t have a boat.

Why does this remind me so much of Jenga?
I once dated Jenga, she made a real impression on me as well!
*still hurts*
Did she pull out pieces of your soul in a stragetic manner until you were a broken structure of a man? What a bitch.
Yes, she was a bitch, but damn she was sooo hot and so magical like you had to ignore it even as the pain of your soul being dragged through broken dreams made you bleed more love than all the world’s kittens could purr back into you by enternity’s end.
Hm. I can’t imagine who could do such a thing to a man. *is uh, not shifty*
*changes subject* So, you like Ents?
Just the thought of her makes me want to cross stack small wooden blocks and yell “JENGA!” (whilst wearing nothing but a cowboy hat, but you don’t need to know that).
Ok, I climbed to the top… now where is that basketball hoop I needed to jump into?
I don’t have a basketball hoop, but I found this shot glass. You’re going to need to tuck your chin a little more, though.

Your spirit does not contain alcohol but makes be to be high.

The fail here is putting the new Shamu training tower where there is no water. This sets Shamu and his family up for fail everytime.
Yes… manufactured fails are no fun at all.
Tom and PETA will be all over this.
Hehe. I just thought their Eiffel tower was a tad mismatched
*high-fives*
*roffle!*
It’s okay–Shamu and family jump into a moistened ShamWow.

I’d never press my face up against a Creen. Too dangerous.
They are building a spaceship to save a little boy abducted by aliens. Are you blind?
What? They are trying to rescue Jack! That mean giantess is holding him… somewhere…
Cool beans!
I thought it was the oil rig built after Uncle Jed found some bubbling crude.
No no no, the guys up there are astronauts, the spiky thing is the spaceship and the wooden thingy is the launch pad!
And one of them is handling a satellite.
Yes, this picture was taken on Cape Carnival.
they are building a ladder to heaven… f~ing Kenny still has those winning tickets….
Well they went the wrong way then. Kenny is off foiling Saddam’s plot to take over hell by making Satan a battered woman.

It’s an impending fail. Like the bike path that’s about 3 inches wide and on the edge of the ocean.
OK, my memory was wrong. It was a stream, not the ocean.

That reminds me of the time I thought I died, but it was just a pimple! Huh.
Huh indeed. *checks face in the mirror*
Well the point was it was a bike lane along the edge of a body of water. Ocean, stream – either way, you get wet.

gee Honey, you’re always first in my, ummm, bed. i wish you would last longer, but i know those 3 thrusts are the best you can manage since i’m so hot fine

One, but the lightbulb has to want to change.
Yes, lightbulb, I believe we have made a vital breakthrough today.
Finally! These sessions are costing me a fortune!
How many mice does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
