Snow days were overrated, far as I was concerned.  Not like you could sleep in...because you didn't know for sure if your school was open until you heard over the radio.  So we were still up much too early and getting ready.  

 

And in my case:  neighbors?  What neighbors?  At that time, we were in a mountain subdivision where the minimum lot size (out of necessity) was 2 acres;  we were, IIRC, the 6th home in the entire subdivision (a couple hundred lots total) and there were VERY few kids close by.  

Nowadays, I think my local schools close down for a week over a snow flurry. Wish they did that in my day.

Baby Yoda eats Ewoks.  You heard it here first.

Wait what?

If he is looking for a job....

Baby Yoda is very cute, but he doesn't take centre stage too much, they mostly just use him for comic relief. Ewoks were cute but didn't need to be to fulfill their role in the story, and would arguably have done a better job if they WEREN'T cute. A bunch of badass forest natives who choose to help the good guys? Would have made for a better movie.

Ewoks!!!!!!

I am pretty sure I've posted this before, but here's the most famous undergrad physics lab write-up of all time.

 

I think that is from the 1990s, but in a sense it is timeless.

 

It also features the best graph-caption combination ever published.

I miss the 1990s.

I can never remember - is it Trump = Beavis and Mitch McConnell = Butthead, or vice versa?

I think it was Beavis Trump and Butthead Biden or vice versa.😉

This wasn't the most enthusiastic of elections for me🥺

Sorry, for that sudden gloominess, still suffering from the aftermath fatigue.

Not to get too political but I've always had a problem with the "get out to vote, it's your civic duty" schtick which people roll out at election time.

 

No, it's your civic duty to be informed and interested.

 

It isn't your civic duty to go out and vote at random, vote for the person with the best smile, or vote for the person with the best slogan. Sure, you're free to do it that way if you want but it isn't your duty to do it like that.

Yeah, I always do to some extent briefly in the aftermath. But, it really has lingered. That voting is pointless, that I wasted my time being informed.

Dont worry, I will shake it off eventually, but it has really lingered this year, probably due to my feelings of all involved this time around

Not to defend trump but I am seeing very little from some on the other side. Who seem to think, if they protest or celebrate the right cause they are somehow magically exempt from catching it.

I have gotten pretty sick of the lot of them. The rest of us who have actually followed the guidelines, are the ones who are suffering, and for nothing.

Badger-fight,should be challenging.

Frosty bob- he doesn't smell of gunpowder and smoked meat. I better shoot him before he improves my reputation.😁

So what's new on Beavis and Butthead?

Well, I was watching Spongebob, but I can check in on that too.

Just dont make me watch any news for 3 years.

Badger- "time to feast". (Note: maybe I am channeling online Badger and the Ewokhunters, than super character Badger here. But, all of my characters will of some variance be taking home "leftovers" after the battle"😂

Yeah, I saw that.  Get used to it, the slope of the hockey stick is close to 20000 new cases a week.  And we're also averaging 1000 deaths per day.  Happy Holidays!

Yeah, and after 2 certain opposing groups decided to alternate weekends being stupid. I expect a spike in 7 to 9 days.

OK, then you explain it...

(I saw it on a clip from his Rose Garden talk, where he was blaming Cuomo for delaying vaccine deployment.  I'm going good GOSH, it makes him look radioactive...glowing white hair going with the glowing orange skin tone...)

Well, Cuomo was a complete incompetent.

But, still 49 other states.

I decided to watch more intelligent things than what passes for the news....

Take some advice from my dream (AKA alternative reality) self: a pet jaguar is not the wisest of investments.

Mine can add pet cobras.

Also probably doesn't hp when Prescotts demand half a team salary cap.

I have come to realize that most I end up arguing with on YouTube comments think they have won. Simply because, I got bored and wandered off.😪

In other words, youtube commenters will not have the most intelligent of arguments.

Va got homeland which would seem more DC,  wouldn't it

Also Gunsmoke should be for Kansas, the show did last 20 friggin seasons.

Of course, with past QBs, in today game, given the level of patience in development. Bradshaw would have been declared a bust before he had time to develop. It really took him about 5 years, and didnt even fully win the job till their 2nd SB season.

I am unmarried  with definitely no desire to have children, so I dont have to.

Probably not too bad, maybe. But, we have had a couple co-workers get it earlier on, that caused havoc. And since he is 79, bad heart, and diabetes, that is about as high risk as possible. I do call, but we arent exactly long phone conversations people. So, that only goes so far.

How can you hate anything with that soundtrack from Queen and Brian Blessed yelling...”Gordon’s Alive!” ?

Does Brian Blessed ever not tell, though?

First can someone correct the title to say world instead of workd ? It is distracting.

 

Second is the article comparing Flash to films of the same period or is it comparing it to things like the current Marvel Cinema Universe films ?

I can say that the 1980s Flash Gordon has one thing in common with the first Avengers film. I can happily rewatch either. They are like, for me, The Battle of Britain, Star Wars A New Hope or The Great Escape. You can just sit back and watch them repeatedly.

 

With Flash Gordon, I get the feeling a certain princess is a big factor for you.

Just saying

Unfortunately my sympathy isn't worth much.  And as I'm watching the third wave of this hit, I wish we could have done this right the first time... but what do I know.

Yeah, I do get worked up over it. Haven't seen my dad since March for the risk to his health, and at this point, I dont really expect to again.

And on matters like that my 5 stages tend to linger on anger  and reverts back several times.

But, I do thank for the sympathy, in any case.
