Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Just Who is the Ginger Lad?

Our outside temp is 34 (F) and we have drizzle, with some occasional sleet and flurries thrown into the mix to make driving fun.  The temps should climb up into the 40s (F).  That's fine.  The  sun will not peer down at us because the clouds are going to keep him entirely shielded.  I don't mind the drizzle as long as the temps stay on the milder side.

Yesterday retail was slow.  Not a single customer walked within talking distance of the flooring distance.  One or two did a rapid walk through on their way to some other location in the store. I did cover a lunch at the paint desk at the end of my shift during which I mixed a 5 gallon bucket of a variation on white for an Asian couple.  They wanted a paint that would allow them to wipe off ink and crayon marks; they have at least one child who likes to write on the walls.  I told them there is no such paint.  I peeved them off a bit when I told them that.  I peeved them off even more when I told them the best solution was to keep their kid from writing on the wall.  My words brought a frown to the mother's face.  Whatever happened to simple parenting?

I was supposed to have breakfast with my brother this morning, however he texted me last evening to tell me his daughter's flight from Florida was delayed and he wouldn't get home until nearly 0230.  I replied that these delays were normal now that a reality TV star was running the Department of Transportation.  He did not respond.

Christmas lunch is going to be baked ham and scalloped potatoes.  

And since not everyone follows me on Insta, or Threads, or FB, here 's what I posted this morning.  Hhhmm, just who is the Ginger Lad?


And the big news yesterday was Bill Clinton put out a statement that said "I have nothing to hide," and then challenged Orangie's administration to release the Epstein files.  Afterwards, in one of his unhinged rants Orangie claimed that this Democratic hoax will make Clinton look good.  In their response, the Department of Justice did release another batch of the files in which Orangie is mentioned a substantial number of times.  They also released a statement saying that while some of these released files will make Orangie look bad, readers need to understand that they are all lies.  Can you hear me laughing now?

Orangie also threw another piece of shit at the wall yesterday hoping change conversation away from the Epstein files.  He's naming a new class of battleships after himself.  Hahaha, it didn't stick.

Finally, God Bless the Canadians, they have released the 60 Minute CECOT video and it is zooming across the internet.   This will stick to the wall.

    Cankles claimed Clinton was in the files as a pedophile, but now claims the Dems will call it a good thing??

    1. I have a sneaking suspicion they're beginning to panic.

  2. God what a pathetic mess this country has gotten into to the point where it's downright embarrassing. And the stuff that Trump's doing is just getting crazier and crazier.

  3. Trump is acting nuts so that when the time comes to put him on trial for high treason, his attorneys will use an insanity defense to keep his ass out of prison.

    1. True, he has dementia, however, if they use that as the excuse to keep him out of prison, the GOP will be toast.

  4. Years ago the friend that I travelled round Australia with in 1983 came to visit with her husband and 3 kids. The kids were a nightmare, the 2 year old started writing on the wall (until I stopped her) and her older kids' eating habits were so disgusting we left a restaurant in a shameful mess. My kids were the same age as her boys and there is no way we would have tolerated that behaviour. I thought it was just me until a colleague told me that everyone had cut ties with them because of "those bloody kids". You do your kids no favours by allowing that behaviour. That being said, Merry Christmas Dave - your lunch sounds lovely!

    1. I find it interesting that some people's parenting skills can be summed up as "it's simply too much of a bother." I see parents in the store with kids like that and there isn't any attempt to control their behavior. You have a Merry Christmas, too.
