When you hit middle age you really only have two choices: you can get fat and lazy until you roll over and die, or you can can get off your ass and do something, like maybe ride a bike.
Bluntness
I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Troll
Can I get a happy hello to Friday?
The rain, sleet, slushy snow is predicted to end this morning. The temps are supposed to climb to 44 (F), but then the their supposed to tank, meaning drop, not explode like the round aquarium in Berlin. I feel so bad for those 1500 fish, dying because of stupidity.
Yesterday was so slow at work. I talked to 2 customers. A husband and wife. They were disappointed that the mosaic tile they were looking at on her phone didn't look like the mosaic we carried in the store. I explained to them about color accuracy, and how back lit colors are never true. They also didn't like the fact that they were looking at a natural stone mosaic which meant each mosaic was going to be different, that there was no way to guarantee uniformity. He shook his head, "well, that's sad."
I did stop off on my way home and picked up a small bottle of merlot and watched "Troll." I liked it, but then I've always been a sucker for monster movies. Not all fairy tales are about fairies. At some point, I will watch it again.
For those of you planning on purchasing any of Trump's NFT trading cards, I hate to disappoint you, but they're sold out. This means Santa's not going to be leaving a little Christmas grift under your tree. I did show his little commercial to associates at work yesterday and everyone laughed hysterically. As someone pointed out, this was a great money laundering scheme with buckos coming in from all over the world. The Orange Anus will always rely on the con to get money from his supporters. More power to him. The more he steals from his MAGA base, the less they'll have for other candidates.
And, of course, the Twitter exodus continues. What used to be an amusing social media platform is now becoming simply tedious. Suspending accounts simply because they point out the deceit in Musk's supposed 'free speech' is bad for business. There is a difference between posting an opinion and posting disinformation. Phony fact attacks do promote discourse, so using them to draw in subscribers is a failed endeavor. Journalists are now posting their new addresses on POST, Mastodon, and Tribal before Musk suspends their accounts. Musk's bullshit about being doxed is nothing more than his anger at finding out that a lot of people simply don't like him.
I feel so sad for the fish. I feel sad for the people in Ukraine. The list of things I feel sad about is very long. But I don’t feel sad for the dumbarses who paid for OA’s NFTs. King of the Grifters. And now through the use of reverse image search it seems many of the images were lifted from various web pages and photoshopped to add his ugly mug. Perfect.
Oooh I have Troll in my queue. I think I watched a movie awhile ago with the same theme. This one looks interesting. And I have cackled endlessly with Cheeto's cards. The photoshop alone would drain any account. And they're 'sold out'. Sure, Jan. The grift is always very intense with him. And Space Karen is driving Twatter to the GROUND. Free speech? LOL As long as they kiss his ass, and some people are just not having it. Love to see it implode.
Troll is good, I'm sure you will enjoy Mads Petersen. And some of those cards are so terribly photoshopped I'm sure it was Melania who was making them.
I do believe I've said this before, but for him it's all about the 'art of the deal,' which his why he should never have any type of confidential documents; if he can sell them, he will.
I'm so glad you clarified troll was a monster flick. I was thinking that was a documentary about Trump! Jokes Aside I will have to check that show out I love Monster flicks also.
Racketeering has always been about the only strength 45 is adept at, he's a failure in anything and everything but being totally corrupt and conning rubes.
Ha ha, glad you liked Troll. I liked the scenery but that was about it!
ReplyDeleteThe subtitled version is a lot better than the dubbed version. Voice actors rarely get the emotion right.

ReplyDeleteWe were laughing at some of the cards at work yesterday and some of them are so truly amateurish; they're not even decent photoshops.

DeleteElon Musk and his ilk chant Free Speech but only when it's speech they like.
ReplyDeleteI do believe he's still trying to figure out how to pay for his so call free speech, too.
DeleteHis whole campaign is a money grab.

ReplyDeleteI suspect you will go for the Troll and stay for Mads Petersen
