In addition, weather it was intentional or not, social media companies have made their algorithms almost addicting.

Almost???

If this were all a book, I'd probably be skipping the rest of this chapter and the next one to see where this is all headed.

😄

Kim Jung looks so happy!

Reminds me of an underrated comedy... The Interview

Forget the south pacific.

The Chinese have probably already sent most of their armies across our southern border.

That's new.

This is me talking.

This is me yelling!

Oh cool, you only need one "dash" under the line to make it work.

TBH, not many. I was a country kid, raised with a bunch of other country kids. What needed doing, got done. Didn't matter how hot, how cold, how dry, how wet. If a fence is broke, mend it. If the stock needs feeding, feed them. If the garden needs picking, you pick.

I've gone to pick up my wife for a Saturday night date and have to cool my heels, while she was washing off the dust from hauling square bales of hay. And I'm not talking driving the tractor, I'm talking chunking bales up on the trailer.

In my world, kids knew how to work and it carried over to adulthood.

I wonder if the old people back then would have shared your high opinion of your character 😆

Enough to pay me.

Homer could have minded his own business.

Homer's from West By God. Where manners matter.

From the video, Blink Cincinnati is some kind of city wide light show?

Looks very cool!

CTE is a sad thing.

Probably the same guy who delivered covid.

Looking forward to this one:

There is something to that. I've dated sisters. But twins... dayum, what an idea.

(like I'd have the energy)

BIL dated an identical twin in college. He picked her up for a date one night and didn't know he had the wrong girl until they got back to his dorm room.

He's never told me what gave her away.

BTW, those two girls were drop dead gorgeous. Their mother was a rabbi blanco Puerto Rican and their dad was a professor at the university. They were almost six feet tall, long-legged, curly haired goddesses with green eyes.

I might take the "Sperm Health" pills myself!

Dude. Knocking someone up at this stage of life is a bad idea. Ask Doug Emhoff. Or, better yet, your wife.

No, I just like to see the little bastards wiggle!
