  1. I read that every pint of beer you drink shortens your lifespan by 9 minutes. By my calculations, that means I died sometime shortly before my grandfather was born.
  2. In a pediatricians office, one hyperactive little boy was bouncing around and knocked the container of pens in front of the nurses window on the floor. Father: "Kevin! Be careful! Help me pick up these pens." Then to the nurse: "I am so sorry, he just gets a little crazy." Nurse: "That's okay, we've had worse. We had one little boy that climbed up the back that chair over there, jumped off and pulled down the banner we had hanging over the door." Father: "Yeah, that was Kevin."
  3. I am familiar with the character although I have never read any of Howard's stories in which she appears, but this looks good. I appreciate the Combat Luck since her outfit clearly isn't offering any real protection.
  4. Anthony Jeselnik tells this story about his neighbor who has Alzheimer’s. "One of my next door neighbors is a 90 year old man suffering from Alzheimer’s. And every single morning at 9am he knocks on my door and asks me if I have seen his wife. Which means that every single morning at 9am I have to explain to a 90 year old man suffering from Alzheimer’s that his wife has been dead for quite some time. Now I’ve thought about moving. I have thought about just not answering my door in the morning. But to be honest, it’s worth it… just to see the smile on his face.”
  5. Puerto Rico needs its own superhero. Just maybe not played by a white guy
  6. Would love to know the story behind this one. Just can't see this fitting in with the garden gnomes and bird baths in the yard.
  7. Nothing makes you feel old quite like getting a euphemistic joke about an enlarged prostate.
  8. I always found Ronald to be a creepy mascot, but then I find clowns in general creepy.
  9. They are developing a male contraceptive gel: https://healthcare.utah.edu/publicaffairs/news/2022/01/male-contraception.php It isn't on the market just yet, but when it does come out, I think they should call it SonBlock.
  10. I voted in the primary on Tuesday. On my way out, I asked for an 'I Voted' sticker. The poll worker looked at me and deadpanned "We're out of 'I Voted' stickers. I have some 'I Gave Blood' ones, but I'd have to cut you."
  11. Always nice to see someone be able to turn their passion into their profession
  12. Don't know that a fallen angel counts as a superhero cosplay, but this seemed like the best thread to post this in
