Or even "Florida Undecided",who "dresses" appropriately for whatever party it is going to attend.a

I was just wondering if maybe it was a guy who thought nobody would find an xray image of a man with TWO penises to be somewhat unusual,and worthy of a closer look.

Well, you know this transgender shit has gotten out of hand.   :silly:

I guess in some cases that would depend on how many free hands you have.

Man’s bladder explodes after holding in pee for 18 hours after beer binge
By Ben Cost
June 23, 2020 | 12:30pmUrine trouble.

In an incident that redefines “sleeping it off,” a Chinese man’s bladder burst when he unknowingly held his pee in for 18 hours after binging on booze.

The 40-year-old man, identified only as Mr. Hu, reportedly fell asleep — ahem, passed out? — after downing 10 bottles of beer during a heavy drinking session the night prior — without heeding nature’s call once, reports Zhuji Daily. ...

... [A] CT scan revealed that his bladder was torn in three places. ... Even worse, one of the holes had ruptured toward the patient’s abdominal cavity and forced part of his intestines to spill into the bladder — a complication doctors deemed potentially fatal if not fixed immediately. ...

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

SAS flight #SK2184 is delayed by about 90 minutes as some activists glue themselves to the aircraft body before departure from Ängelholm in Sweden

I can't read Swedish, but https://www.nsk.se/2020/06/29/personer-hindrar-flygplan-i-angelholm-att-lyfta/
Also, this Swedish story, which seems to indicate they're climate activists. Figures. https://www.svt.se/nyheter/lokalt/helsingborg/personer-hindrade-flygplan-pa-angelholms-flygplats-fran-att-lyfta

Probably too much to ask that the glue-on-flesh sensation is very unpleasant.

If it were REALLY good glue,the airplane could have taken off anyway.

Wouldn't want one of them sucked into an engine and cause a crash.

Yeah, some good 100 MPH tape and they'd just have increased the fuel requirements and changed the trim...

Better outcome would be being peeled off based on  turbluence of going 500 mph at 30,000 feet.

I really think the corpses glued to the roof of the cockpit would cause an unacceptable amount of drag, and may not even make cruising altitude.  :shrug: 

They'd have to land somewhere downrange, and scrape them off onto the waiting pickup trucks, and then file a new flight plan. Extra drinks for the passengers and they're good to go within an hour or so.

This story is a few days old. I heard about it on the radio driving home from work.

San Francisco Giants commit to cardboard cutouts instead of fans for 2020 season

Whether fans will be able to see live-action baseball from a stadium seat this season remains to be seen. MLB has not ruled it out or enacted a league-wide plan in its 2020 season agreement with the players.

The San Francisco Giants, though, have ruled that no fans will be allowed at Oracle Park this year. And in their place, season ticket holders will be allowed to submit photos to be used as cardboard cutouts in the seats.

Link

I was only half listening but for $99 you could submit a photo and get a cutout. I don't know if you had a choice of seat selection. I don't know what team you are supposed to be rooting for.

Which really sucks for Mrs. Butterworth because she's not black.  It's like that guy who plays a cartoon character on Fox.  Outta work for NOT being black.  :shrug:  He did it to himself.

What would "rooting" look like in this context, anyway?

Compost. For the price, you should be laminated. All weather all season fan. Just think. With the right wind conditions you could see what a real wave should look like. Or an orgy.
