When I was a kid my English teacher looked my way and said, "Name two pronouns."
I said, "Who, me?"

The past, the present, and the future walked into a bar.
It was tense.

No awareness ribbon that I know of, but how about a button?


You'll note that the conservative duck mentioned a colonoscopy, but that was off topic since it dealt with possible semi-colon abuse...

I was browsing on Wal-Mart's Web site the other night, and found two disturbing actual items.

The first is that, apparently, "skinny" jeans now come in a 42-inch waist, which kind of defeats the purpose.

The second was in the T-shirt section.



You can apparently buy T-shirts emblazoned with the logo of your favorite food or beverage: Coke, Pepsi, Mountain Dew, I even saw one for Eggo waffles.

It used to be that advertisers would PAY to reach customers. Now, customers pay to become advertisements.

That trend has been going for a while, and it's too bad.  I used to get such KEWL STUFF with Marlboro Miles.  We still get compliments from the Bell guy when we go to the Casino....

Whoever came up with that button would LOVE visiting Hawai'i.

I didn't come up with the button, but I'd be happy to step up and visit Hawai'i in their place!

I think this is a more appropriate button for Ms. Clinton:

I wish our politicians (and you know who I mean) would all make a trip to the Olympics this year...

In honor of both Friday silliness and the opening of the 2016 Summer Olympics, how about a nice selection of headless rhythmic gymnasts.

I lost my apostrophe when I left FR. And Trump thinks he has made sacrifices. :laugh:

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.

Thanks Pookie for the Trump pics.

My pleasure, @Unlimited! There are so many of them that both the Thurs. & Fri. Today's Toons threads were smaller than usual (since I don't include anti-Trump in them).
